Mickey's_Girl Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Um, I thought I read that meatless Fridays were no longer "required", just "recommended"? Or maybe not even that...? Please inform. MG (or I could go look in the Catechism, too, 'cause it's probably in there...)
Aloysius Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 tiz still required, but it can be substituted for some other good work or act of penance. pAx
qfnol31 Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Still held the norm by Canon Law. 1250 to be exact.
the lumberjack Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 I'm SURE that bruce would LOVE to respond to this topic...and many others. but it seems as if his debating here has sparked him to be banned YET AGAIN... last time, it was for 3 weeks... this time, its for a year. thats pretty ridiculous. I don't know how much longer I want to hang around here.... God bless.
Kilroy the Ninja Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Let's stick to the topic of Fish on Fridays please. Thank you. Pax Christi.
ilovechrist Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Fr. A told me a while back that it is still required... we have fish fry fridays every week throughout Lent @ our Parish--everyone's invited

[/quote] lumberjack, It's got to be obvious to you, the tone and technique of BruceS's posts that are mean-spirited, not intended to debate (but to only attack), dismissive of intelligent response, etc. More Catholics have been banned that Prots, though BruceS has been banned 3 or 4 times. One gets banned for hatefullness, not for being sincerely and deeply committed to a differing opinion and vigorously supporting that opinion. I hope you hang around here a long time, even if you disagree with us.
Quietfire Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 (edited) Hey, I Love Christ. Whats going on with your avatar? Not to hijack this thread, but I gotta know! Is doe's feetsy's I see? (Are those feet I see sticking out?) Who day's be? (who's feet are those?) Peace. Edited June 18, 2004 by Quietfire
ICTHUS Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) has ruled that it is [i]highly recommended[/i], but not strictly necessary.
the lumberjack Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 jas, we can always talk about Bruce and "his kind" later...for now, lets keep it fishy. or YOU might get warned...like this dumb prot did. peace -------- and Icthus, going off what you just said I would like to ask everyone here, what then, happens to all those catholics who ate meat before, when it WAS mandatory...I speak of the ones that died... do they get a "get out of hell free" card or something? since its now not MANDATORY, do they get afterlife pardons? God bless
dUSt Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 [quote name='the lumberjack' date='Jun 18 2004, 01:36 AM'] but it seems as if his debating here has sparked him to be banned YET AGAIN...[/quote] I'd like to address this statement by lumberjack: "but it seems as if his debating here has sparked him to be banned YET AGAIN..." This is untrue. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but allow me to clarify. Bruce's "debating" never so much as got him warned. It was his personal attacks that got him banned. Please make this distinction, as I'd hate for you to be guilty of bearing false witness against this website. I've created a specific thread regarding Bruce's ban, so any other comments relating to this issue should be posted there. God bless.
the lumberjack Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 ok. God bless. and REMEMBER EVERYONE! [img]http://www.brumback.com/other/tuna.jpg[/img] .... I mean, it IS Friday. who luv's ya baby!
EcceNovaFacioOmni Posted June 18, 2004 Posted June 18, 2004 Charlie the Tuna inspired me to stay a Catholic. Not really...
