From Camille Goutier. (Letters to the Editor).Your Jan/Feb 2002 issue includes an article by Mariette Ulrich entitled en·ti·tle tr.v. en·ti·tled, en·ti·tling, en·ti·tles 1. To give a name or title to. 2. To furnish with a right or claim to something: "Grown Men Curtsy," in which she deplores the lack of reverence towards the Blessed Sacrament Blessed Sacrament n. Roman Catholic Church The consecrated host. . In Fr. Robert Bedard's article "The Bells Ring: lex orandi," it is mentioned that only 30% of church-going Catholics believe in the Real Presence. Another study indicates that in Canada only 23% of Catholics still attend church regularly. At that rate, only 7% of all Catholics still believe in the Real Presence. The Church in Canada has really been successful in the last forty years! Neither writer attempted to specify a cause for this situation. To find the answer, just look around you in all the Catholic churches. Go to all the priests who tore Tore can refer to:
Just go to all bishops who directed these changes and to those who didn't say a word, believing that today "We have to be nice to people." Just go to all the Cardinals who jumped on the renewal bandwagon band·wag·on n. 1. An elaborately decorated wagon used to transport musicians in a parade. 2. Informal A cause or party that attracts increasing numbers of adherents: and those who just sat back and allowed these innovations to happen. Like Mary Magdelene, we can say: "What have they done to my Lord?" Joussard, AB |
