| | :: Excellent example! I'll be sure to use these passages in a few weeks, once more of Luke is translated. Very intriguing about the word "powerless", which I think fits in perfectly. I did a search of the NRSV, and it doesn't use this word anywhere in the New Testament (although it does a few times in the Old). --[[User:FatherJoseph|FatherJoseph]] 19:29, 12 December 2009 (EST) | | :: Excellent example!

| − | I think that there may be a number of priests that are following Conservapedia and, possibly, editing. Which is your Church and where is your parish?[[User:BertSchlossberg|Bert Schlossberg]] 19:35, 13 December 2009 (EST) | + | :::I'm curious: about how many Masses, if any, have you said in Latin?--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 22:11, 15 December 2009 (EST) |

| | + | :::: Very few - after the Second Vatican Council, Latin Mass has been heavily disfavored, and few churches hold Mass in Latin nowadays. --[[User:FatherJoseph|FatherJoseph]] 22:57, 15 December 2009 (EST) |

| | + | ::::::::I'm not sure what this is all about. Vatican II did not forbid priests from doing mass in Latin, indeed there are still some that do special masses in Latin. Latin is also used by those giving mass in Vatican City. Even if Vatican II did ban Latin from being used in mass, Vatican II was opened in 1962, around 20 years after Father Joseph started his ministry. --[[User:JAiken|JAiken]] 00:46, 16 December 2009 (EST) |

| | + | ==Renaming the Epistles== |
| | + | |
| | + | I would be interested to hear anyone's thoughts on whether the "Epistle to the Corinthians" etc should be renamed as "Letter to the Corinthians". I feel that this would be more in keeping with the intention of the books. They are, after all, first and foremost letters from Paul to distinct peoples. I think we should drop the rather archaic word epistle and change it to letter; or perhaps to advice. Any thoughts?--[[User:PThomson|PThomson]] 21:48, 15 December 2009 (EST) |
