catholicinsd Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 [quote name='Aloysius' date='Mar 8 2006, 09:46 AM']Vatican II said nothing about altar girls. Vatican II called for Latin in the Liturgy and no abuses. This has nothing to do with Vatican II. Altar girls were conceded in 1994 (?) because people had already begun doing it in disobedience. Mother Theresa and Mother Angelica were two of the most upset people in the world when John Paul II made this concession.

[right][snapback]906457[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Oh gosh...! That isn't true! The pope is not infallible on matters of discipline! Only faith and morals! And he gave the perogative to allow altar girls to bishops which means they can be disallowed. The American bishops put the decision into the hands of the parish priests. Altar Girls are not allowed at the Vatican you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And guess what? Under Canon Law I'm allowed to have that opinion! I think it was irresponsible, and in some cases it was an attempt to undermine the concreteness of the concept of masculine priesthood.

By injecting completely nonsensical remarks into an otherwise serious thread, it is made clear that the topic is finished. That is my genius.
