Here's an opportunity to submit all those questions you wanted to ask but were afraid to and, hopefully, get answers.

Suggestion: let's pool our resources, compile a list and submit them one at a time. Then we can monitor the answers to determine whether or not our questions are being addressed.

So, can a priest celebrate with a glass chalice?

In my parish, the pastor consecrates the wine using a gold chalice. There is also a glass pitcher and two glass goblets for distribution of the Precious Blood.

What's the big deal? Glass, wood, metal?

I've got a question:

Why is the Confiteor consistantly omitted?

Granted, the strange form of Puritanism infecting modernist American clergy has an impact on the selection of liturgical vessels. I don't understand the new iconoclastic bias against metallurgy. It doesn't seem to affect their personal jewelry.I'll admit it's a little strange to see a priest celebrating Mass with clay or glass liturgical vessels drive away in a Mercedes, take resort vacations, partake of catered dining or sport designer eyewear.
