I had an ill-informed cousin who, at 16, was extremely upset that she may be pregnant (because she had allowed a boy to kiss her.)Sounds like she initiated the conversation with her mother and that she has a trusting relationship with her. 👍
I wasn't put asleep even when my 4 impacted wisdom teeth were taken out all at once... 😅Yes. This was my experience also. When I saw the other recovering people in the "recovery room" I knew the pain was worth it, even with the complications.
Oh, wow! This makes me wonder if tooth powder was originally more common and toothpaste a more modern thing.I think so. My grandparents always used tooth powder and had all their teeth in their 80s. When I tried to find tooth powder (prior to the internet) it was not available anywhere. Multliple recipes for making your own tooth powder are online. I advise against using a recipe with charcoal as it looks disgusting and no one would use it except me. Sometimes I just use baking soda which tastes bad, but you could add powdered xylitol.
Yes, if they're dual citizens.We are not talking about dual citizens. We are talking about illegal residents of the U.S. who are allowed to vote ilegally in our elections.
You don't have to participate in the anonymous forum? I personally like it as I can express my honest thoughts.So ---- are you saying your other posts are dishonest?
Now, you agree that the Holy Ghost is being evoked in the new Rite. "So now pour out upon this chosen one that power which is from you, the governing Spirit" is a accepted term used by the Eastern Rite ChurchYou're a bad-willed, stubborn, moron...This has already been explained to you.
and it is immediately qualified in the Rite by the following definition: "...the spirit given by (Christ) to the holy apostles, who founded the Church in every place to be your temple...".Office of a patriarch, not a bishop.
We all agree that the New Rite is not a patch on the Old Rite; that not only is it missing many beautiful prayers and ceremonies but it lacks the clarity of the Old rite and is so stripped down it appears almost more Protestant than Catholic.So the Holy Ghost can give His Bride, the Church, a protestant rite? You're a heretic.
However, the Church is her great wisdom, has a safety net to dispel certain doubt: From the very beginning Christ said to his bishops "Amen I say to you, whatsoever you shall bind upon earth, shall be bound also in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose upon earth, shall be loosed also in heaven." (Matt. 18:18). What this means is that the Church has the God-given authority to alter and change the matter and form,Heresy. No, the Church cannot change the matter/form of sacraments. The pope can't either. No human on earth can, because these were created by Christ. The matter/form of sacraments = Divine origin. The Church cannot change Divine things; She can only bind/loose human laws.
and it is Her and Her alone, that determines what constitutes as a valid or invalid form. Writes Pope Pius XII in Sacramentum Ordinis (No.4): "...that which the Church has established, she can also change and abrogate"The Church can decide if the matter/form is essentially the same as Christ created and the Apostles handed down. But the Church cannot change the matter/form.
keeping in mind, as the council of Trent qualifies, that the substance laid down in scripture by Christ, is always to be maintained within these changes.Yeah, this substance = matter/form.
(This scriptural, pre-determined, substance, of course, applies only to Baptism and the Holy Eucharist).
For the other five Sacraments, Christ has left it to the supreme authority of His Church to decide which words and signs would effect the sacramental grace.
