It had to be, every Catholic posting I see is unbelievably long, and reads like a motion in an investment banking securities fraud trial.
Or, like some people pinged here, they post long Roman Catholic propaganda under the guise of liturgy and make repeated replies to their own thread, without ceasing. I guess some people may think it will earn them a shorter time in purgatory and some have admitted that it is done to earn a reward (RCCult indulgences are still around!).
Of course there is no purgatory, and there is nothing to do to earn anything in God's economy! Free, Free, Free... Grace, unmerited Grace!
Smells and bells are remnants of pagan worship. Repetitious prayer was specifically faulted by Jesus. God is a Spirit, and the prayers of the saints (all Christians, not a select few) are God's sweet savor!
God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as that poster. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
