prose Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I feel weird doing it. Not because I am trying to be disrespectful or anything, it just seems weird to call people "Father" online. I hope that isn't rude of me. By "People", I mean priests of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatS Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 If I am talking to a priest, I do say "Father" to be respectful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God Conquers Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 nope... I feel less wierd calling someone Father than calling them "supercatholic12" or "ilovepopebenny" or "insert any PM nickname that's not a real name....like mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djc08 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I don't know but I feel wierd calling people "Deacon" something...I don't think it has as a good a ring to it as "Father". Maybe I'm just wierd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmom Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I think the only pmer i've ever addressed as "father" is cappie... but I like calling him cappie better. I have to agree with... um... yeah, "God Conquires" though.... it's weird addressing people by their sns. Especially really long ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendan1104 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Doesn't Dust/PM require proof of ordination- like a scan/copy of the certficiate to group in 'clergy'? Speaking of priests, where's Fr. Pontifex been? I think we have 3 resident priests, here, right? Fr. Theologian-in-Training Fr. Cappie, and Fr. Pontifex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
