This is why Rome is not to be trusted. The Indult itself is a sham. It was a sham from the beginning--since no "indult" was ever necessary to celebrate a Mass that had never been officially abrogated. The freedom for any priest to say the "Mass for All Time" should have been guaranteed by this Pope long ago.

The link doesn't go to Seattle Catholic but to another spot that won't let me in.

I understand the ideas that this author is talking about with the special blessing that is given to a priest's hands. However, what do we do when there will no longer be priests but maybe once a month to consecrate hosts?

Who will distribute them then in a Communion Service?

There are not enough priests to go around to have two priests at each Mass even in these days.

I don't see that have laymen and women distribute Communion is such an abomination compared to a lack of priests.

Aren't we looking at the wrong problem here?
