Title: Quote for the Morning: No Sacrifice
Post by: Shin on May 29, 2011, 05:58:09 AM
'When people wish to destroy religion, they begin by attacking the priest, because where there is no longer any priest there is no sacrifice, and where there is no longer any sacrifice there is no religion.'

St. Jean Marie Baptiste Vianney, the Cure of Ars

I was discussing this with a friend recently when one of our local priests was kind of promoting the idea of woman priests in a local newspaper.
He obviously didn't know that without the male priesthood the Holy Sacrifice would be invalid.
I will point this out to him in charity when I next have the opportunity to speak with him.
