Vincent Vega Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Hey y'all, I've heard these terms used quite a bit when referring to the pass and parts of it. I don't, however, know what they really mean. Could someone define them, and if possible, provide examples of what they would be? Thanks, Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truthfinder Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Valid means that the sacrament actually happened. eg. The priest says the consecration prayers that are minimally acceptable. Illicit would mean that he changed prayers that do not affect the "confection" of the sacrament. I hope this makes sense. For example, having worship dancers during Mass would be illicit, but it would not invalidate the Consecration (unless they were saying the prayers and not the priest ).
