At our traditional chapel, we used the new St. Joseph Baltimore Catechism. We thought it was unchanged, but found out it has the so-called "Luminous Mysteries." We are in the process of taping over the useless psuedo-mysteries with other Rosary information.

I am using No. 1, and we are now on Ch. 13., which deals with Communion of Saints. What is this "The word 'communion' means 'a sharing.' . . . The sign of our wish to share is the taking of Holy Communion together. Eating at the same table with others is a sign of friendship." To me, this sounds like modernist heresy, reminiscent of King Henry the VIII's overturning the altars to replace them with "tables."

Am I being picky here? Does anyone have an OLD version of this Catechism? I cannot find it online.

Here is the regular Baltimore Catechism, perhaps that will help.

Oops, looks like that isn't the complete text. I'll keep looking, I'm sure I've seen it somewhere.

This location has a pdf of all three original Baltimore catechisms.
