The old passionist monastery in SW Baltimore is a gem: http://www.sjmp.org/ You have to go see inside sometime - quite amazing. The liturgy is bad, but at least they have preserved the church. They have a number of nice relics - including one of the True Cross. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsr#41579 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 08:24:54 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41579 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41579 This text seems to be talking about two things, the pope's occasional infallibility and the pope's terrestial authority. If the pope is not an absolute monarch, where are the limits of his authority? What congress or court checks his decisions? With regard to the pope's occasional infallibility, that is, of course, concerning doctrinal matters. Now, the pope could say anything he wants and cal... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsr#41564 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 13:42:49 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41564 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41564 Thanks for noticing this. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsr#41510 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:26:58 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41510 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41510 He has rightly been called the Pope of Christian Unity. May God grant him many years! Thanks for commenting. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsr#41509 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 06:20:07 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41509 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8699778816329980495/?src=hsrs#41509 Thanks for this post! Anyhow, Benedict XVI is in my humble opinion a great Pope because he is a very fine theologian and a profound thinker. And most impressive is his true humility. I see in him a real follower of Christ. I converted from a Reformed tradition to the RCC this year because of this Pope, who he is, what he says (not what the MSM pretend he says and does!) and for his incredible http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/2502248137345662358/?src=hsr#41351 Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:13:57 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/2502248137345662358/?src=hsrs#41351 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/2502248137345662358/?src=hsrs#41351 Well, even as a "Roman" who lives in Argentina and has never seen anglo-catholics in their worship, I've been saying this for a longtime: it would be SO GOOD if Grace and Saint Peter's Church could enter in full communion with Rome. May the Lord guide us all into greater unity in these most interesting times. Greetings, Adam. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsr#41345 Fri, 23 Oct 2009 08:04:30 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41345 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41345 I agree with Adam—too much to process with too little information. IDK about other Anglo-Catholics, but I'm waiting to see what the Apostolic Constitution says. As a married man with an annoying nagging vocation to the Holy Priesthood, such things do indeed need to be examined... Pax tecum, -j http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8785997287983836790/?src=hsr#41314 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 16:45:46 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8785997287983836790/?src=hsrs#41314 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/8785997287983836790/?src=hsrs#41314 This mean-spirited post makes some points, but Anglicanism has actually been one of the better products of Christianity. Whatever one thinks of Henry VIII, the C of E has little to do with what he imagined. We can't look backward with too much hindsight or we will discover too many other skeletons in Romish closets we would rather avoid. Whatever one thinks of the current issues, at least Anglican... http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsr#41309 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 10:10:36 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41309 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41309 Scott, I'm still thinking about it and figuring out what it means. Glad you'll be coming to Immaculate Conception. Bishop Rabb will be on the throne and preaching. We're also having a Solemn Requiem and Absolution at the Catafalque on All Souls (11/02/09) at 6:00. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsr#41296 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:14:01 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41296 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/acruminations/5106886891603965071/?src=hsrs#41296 Hi Adam! Perhaps a word about the personal ordinariates? Do you think the city of Baltimore is ready for one? Hope to see you for the Feast of the Immaculate Conception at GASP. Scott
