Sorry, I didn't hear the Mass. Some niece of mine was getting married and She Who Must Be Obeyed thought I should show up...

You're lucky to have heard what you did. I was forced to participate in a Mass celebrated by a contumacious Jesuit, who re-arranged the words of the Canon and the Our Father, who ordered the congregation to stand throughout the Canon, etc., etc.

Of course, my family KNELT during the Canon--all 11 of us, and the various boy/girl friends of my children. We were up in front, too.

Heh, heh, heh.

Bravi! All part of being the Church Militant.

Good for you for kneeling.

I just don't get some of these priests!
