mortify Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 What do you guys make of the clown's explanation for turning the mass into a circus? [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsC4wRPybpA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsC4wRPybpA[/url] On the flip side a miracle occurs. At 6 minutes and 10 seconds one brave soul stands up for Christ and Holy Mother church by speaking out against the sacrilege. Unfortunately he is laughed at. Anway, hate to be a downer but this is what really goes on in some places.

Akalyte Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Father Corapi spoke against these masses saying Satan laid out the "clown vestments".
Moneybags Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 How did I know that would be from a diocese in California... One of the commentors on Youtube posted this, which is from John Corapi - "If you walk into a church and see the priest dressed up in a clown costume, know who laid out the vestments... Satan." Let's bring out the Reform of the Reform and stand up against such liturgical abuses like the brave soul from the video.

Reform isn't going to come from the Princes of the Church, the Bishops and Cardinals who let this happen and don't discipline the priests. Hey, does that make you all Protestants?

[/quote] It would, if we were protesting what the Church actually teaches. I would say that the council of Trent was a protestant as the dude who cried sacraliege, in that Trent was [s]protesting[/s] reacting to the protestant reformation.
homeschoolmom Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 "A reading from the Gospel according to Matt"?
Theologian in Training Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 As a priest and a clown, I hate when people do this. The unfortunate thing is that the man who stood up was completely ignored and the priest made light of the whole entire thing. In terms of the Mass, there is a time and a place for clowns, and that is neither the time nor the place. It is really sad. I do not envy my bishop, because I am sure he has heard or will hear about the goings on in CA. Pray for him...

Ora et Labora Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 did you see all the other recordings of the masses? watch the one where a priest dresses up in a barney costume and blesses the people with the barney song.............
Knight of the Holy Rosary Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 God bless that man who spoke up. Did anybody catch what he said?
