This sentence implies that you are not sarcastic, horsing around, or playing the idiot when you are defending the faith. Highly misleading. :|

And all the good guys become Priests. But I am one to talk since I am going to be a nun

 

Psh, no.  My boyfriend is good, and he's not allowed to become a priest.  

 

Unless we join the Orthodox, get married, he becomes a priest, and we convert back.

Untrue. You could both simply join an Eastern Rite that is in full communion with the Church. I suggest the Byzantines. They're pretty awesome.

I think doing that is kind of frowned upon.

Nah, it's way harder with the Byzantines and other Easterns.  You have to get direct approval from Rome on a case-by-case basis. 

 

With the Orthodox you just make sure you get the wedding in before he becomes a deacon.  That's what happened to a friend of mine. She went to school in France, met a guy who was also discerning the priesthood, so they went ahead and got married. :)  He's currently a deacon and a speechwriter for a patriarch.

 

Psh, "generally frowned upon."  Not getting frowned upon is so overrated.  :hehe2:

Here's to hoping you're being sarcastic! :cheers: I haven't gone through all 14 pages of this thread and it's nearly impossible to tell who's being sarcastic on PM. :|
 

 


No I'm not being sarcastic.

Ah, I see.

 

And I think converting to Orthodoxy just so he can become a Priest is even more frowned upon than switching to a Rite that is in full communion with Rome. ;)

I don't like this thread. Although the intent might have been innocent it is a thread of complaints from Catholics and launching pad for the typical ignorant diatribe from non-Catholics.

 

Asking me to give the top 10 reasons not to be Catholic is akin to asking me to give you the top ten reasons I hate my children.

Why don't you come to Chicago and say it to my face you little punk? 

1. A real badass would take the fight to him.

 

2. roamin is far from little. He is grotesquely obese. He moves around on a sedan chair carried by oiled up gladiators.

We are going to be passing through Chicago. Are you ready to show the world what a big manly man you are by physically threatening people after you got your panties in a wad over comments on an Internet message board?
