PMs change and lol we're all gonna die (but brexit will never end)

He's misunderstanding because he's secretly Jewish, obviously.

When I was a nipper we had this paedo called Father Crowley in the boxy little converted ww2 cinema for a church. Once I copied an adult by putting my hands out for the communion host rather than taking in the mouth (fnarr) and he angrily blurted with spit going everywhere: are you a bloody Catholic?

Lol I’ve always used my hands, can’t believe the state of that

when i was a kid most older folk - greatest generation types - would do the tongue thing. majority would do hands.

Nobodies putting anything, even dead god meat, into my mouth directly.

It might have been because I'm a very Turkish/Asiatic looking whitey. But my unreliable memory says back in the late?70s taking host in the hand was an adults only privilege!

the older folk didn't like taking it in the hands because it was the body of christ and they weren't to sully it or something mad like that

if memory serves

contemporary opinion from cardinal robert sarah

Why do we insist on communicating standing in the hand? Why this attitude of lack of submission to the signs of God?

“[Receiving kneeling and on the tongue] is much more suited to the sacrament itself. I hope there can be a rediscovery and promotion of the beauty and pastoral value of this manner. In my opinion and judgment, this is an important question on which the church today must reflect. This is a further act of adoration and love that each of us can offer to Jesus Christ.”

(he's a wacko conservative)

lol

Turkish/Asiatic looking whitey

one of my many schools was nunnish and we were on pain of beating (aged 6) to receive by moutj

Which order?

I went to a non-religious N.S. so they didn’t really care what we did as long as we didn’t pick bad confirmation names.

xxp

he might have been accusing me of being a Muslim/Hindu day tripper!

Fucking schismatics. No regard whatsoever for the Byzantines that birthed the whole racket.

we moved away before the order became an imprint on my consciousness tbh

When words fail, one has to try numbers and signs:
247 > 14
40% > 7%
500.000 > 99.000

correct

lol I forgot my confirmation name is Patrick - in fact i forgot i've even got a confirmation name.

Mods, can we vote on whether calz's username should be forcefully changed to 'Patrick'?

patzino

Relevant:

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pazzino

(It's pronounced 'patzino'.)

I can't even remember choosing it, but if I did it shows rebellious I was. Unlike those Turks choosing their surnames from the Ataturk era who chose to be called names like Gonad or Arse for the lols.

How is that rebellious? It’s a saint’s name! One of my friends chose Jesus.

I think he meant that it shows how rebellious he was, i.e. not at all.

yep, wouldn't even say boo to a bishop.

This is not my best day posting on this thread! But still having a better one than Chuka.

"patzino" was good though

does Blair take the hosts in his hands, with some heat resistant gloves on. Not impressed with his fake Catholicism, he should have to spend a night in a coffin with Cardinal Hume's decaying corpse to prove he really has converted.

Catholic talk has sent gyac into self flagellation mode:p

It was!

please chuka please jo i’m begging u,,, don’t make me choose

please Chuka don't hurt 'em

think it’s a fake but basically it’s correct so feel fairly relaxed about it.

that Chuka thing was a fake, i'm told. Have deleted.

I had this feeling that Chuka and Jo might not be best of pals but he'd be on his best behaviour as a new member of the gang.

I thought Blair did very quietly convert to Catholicism and they refused to confirm it because of the obvious havoc it would have caused with the Northern Ireland peace process?

NEW: numbers looking even trickier, never mind for putting Corbyn in but for a motion of confidence itself. Chris Leslie tells me the five Change MPs might not vote against the govt in September.

He converted a few months after he stepped down, I think?

(For communion, I was told that kids took it with their hands because you don't want to drop the host, though I never thought to ask why that didn't apply to the dodderier end of the congregation)

This was missed in all yesterday's fun but its important:
