Sadly, I only have access to the traditional Latin Mass once a month when the SSPX visits my country. If we had a permanent priest here I would gladly go more often. I've become increasingly aversed to the Novus Ordo mass the longer a keep attending the TLM

>SSPX
I checked their site, and I guess I was raised to reject a lot of the proteshit style things in mass; I don't have such an issue with Novus Ordo.

Why bother, all they've got to do is confess at some point and all is forgiven.
Being a Catholic means you can get away with literally anything. It's a licence to be an utter shithead.

Not really, because you have to perform acts of contrition, which includes stuff like apologizing to people or returning stolen stuff, and after death you go to Hell, Jr for thousands of years to get purged of your sins.

why would I go to mass on a friday

nice

Because August 15th is a Holy Day of Obligation.

No im going to the gym, instead of getting my dose of spiritual cuckery at the Synagogue of Jesus, thank you very much.

>christposting on Yea Forums
>not just larping
pick exactly one

Just read the Cathechism.

vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM

I mean, I'm not one of those people that pretends to read Summa for fun, but I am faithful practicioner of my faith.

>but I am faithful practicioner of my faith
Well, that's ambiguous. This thread is about Christianity, Muhammad

It's about Catholocism, my man.

The Novus Ordo is still valid mass

This is some pedantic excuse Ignatius Reilly would use to not go to mass.

Roman Catholicism - Thomas Corbishley

Look for stuff that includes nihil obstat, and imprimatur

No because I'm not a Catholic
Baptist masterrace now, and always

It is unsurprising that Yea Forums pretends to be so devout, yet it is ignorant of the Feast of the Assumption.

The Catechism, you can start anywhere, depending on what specifically is holding you back from the faith. Alternatively just start from the beginning if you want a complete overview. After than it is really tough to say where to go to. Obviously you'll have to start reading the Bible, and you should visit some churches to find a well-done liturgy, but you could read anyone from Pascal to Ratzinger to Von Balthasar to Chesterton/Newman. The breadth of Catholicism is part of its beauty. Depending on your intellectual foundation there are tens of different authors that you should read that converted to Catholicism from it.

>haha i enjoy how i don't have to spend any time with God outside of an hour on sunday
>baptist masterrace amirite

I'd look at this website to find a nice Latin Mass -latinmassdir.org/
Any FSSP parish will be a good call (I'd trust them over the SSPX) Don't expect every Latin Mass near you to actually be good though, the one near me is actual trash, not much better than the Novus Ordo at that parish. Not much you can do when your church is ugly boomer-core.

It is a mortal sin to intentionally skip mass for an invalid reason. Your opinion of the liturgy is not a valid reason. The purpose of the mass is to honor God and offer our sacrifice at the cross; while it is advisable to seek mass in the manner which best aids you in your offering, it suggests a gravely misplaced attention and desire that you would intentionally avoid taking communion because of the manner in which it was delivered to you. If your own weaknesses make a non-latin liturgy this much of an obstacle towards your proper glorification of God, and it is not a shallow sentiment, than you should really make a great effort to move to a place where you can participate in mass well. If your station in life and your obligations require you to stay where you are, you are obligated to attend mass, regardless of you opinions of the priest, the community, or the liturgy.

Quite the opposite. Confession is only valid if you have sincere and full contrition. To intentionally live a sinful life, anticipating a later confession, all but guarantees that you will lack proper contrition, especially given the immensity of the sin.

Good to see a based Catholic-poster spreading truth.

Thanks for the heads up about the processions.

No problem, amigo. Just went myself. Thankfully the bishop said mass. The regular priest is much younger and I enjoy his homilies far less.

Normally I forget it's on and find myself walking into a Marian procession too stoned to realise this isn't some awful James Bond movie scenario.

I just farted loudly in the middle of reading this. “Thanks for giving a response for me, asshole,” I then said to my asshole.

What, in your mind, is the most essential part of mass?

i went to one catholic mass once and the priest mumbled like he was reading from a script. and then the drones in the pews would repeat certain words. there were about 5 parts where people would get on their knees in unison and pray. they did communion as well but i didnt participate (obviously). it was pretty confusing for me.

Based and redpilled

I don't go to church because I haven't found the right local Catholic Church
Certainly no proper traditional Catholic churches here
I feel like I just can't find a religious place here

You kneel twice, hoss. Mass can be confusing if you have no idea beforehand , but it's really simple in principle. Go with a friend and quietly ask questions. You might also want to look up the key points before hand.

>Comitting a mortal sin because of your pride.
It has been long said that pride is the root of the most serious sins.

I’m not the guy you were talking to, I just find it funny how a religion based on Divine Love has turned thousands of years later into stuck-up arrogant Pharasaical pricks reading the fine print of tremendous (and extra-Biblical) legalistic tomes to proudly declare others are “going to Hell” or “committing a mortal sin” — not for hurting others or themselves, but simply because they’re not going to some geographically-, historically-, and socially-dependent “Mass”.

>b-but I’m just the messenger! The creator of the universe says we HAVE to go sit in this building once a week or it’s a mortal sin!!!

>Keep the Sabbath holy is an extra-biblical tome.

Is a day of obligation the sabbath?

>One day out of the year to celebrate LITERALLY the mother of God.
>Bruh, I can't be arsed to go to church. It doesn't say to go in the bible anyways

I celebrate her and the lord every day.

>quotes the commandments
>used a strawman misquote
sophist detected.

I have full trust in her and the Lord, not in the American Church system.

Also you're wrong about it being a mortal sin. It is a venial sin.

>Not recognizing the primacy and supremacy of the bishop of Rome.
>Knowingly and intentionally missing mass when you are capable.
>Not a mortal sin.
It is, hombre.

Missing mass cannot possibly be a mortal sin that's horseshit

>mass
I thought we were talking about the sabbath. Mass happens every day. Several times. Do you knowingly miss them?

heretic

>n 2011, Father Edward McNamara, professor of liturgy and dean of theology at the Regina Apostolorum university in Rome, said that, for Catholics, assistance at Mass celebrated by priests of the Society is not necessarily a sin: "It would only become so if a person attended this Mass with the deliberate intention of separating himself from communion with the Pope and those in communion with him." However, he concluded: "Only if there is objectively no alternative should one attend the Mass celebrated by a priest from the Society of St. Pius X. If one has to do so, then I would say that one may go in good conscience."

One day you'll have to answer to Jesus and I wonder if he'll accept that "reasoning"

It really is. Did you not pay attention at all in your first communion, reconciliation, or confirmation classes?

Not that user but holy communion ofc.

blah blah blah, people have hacked your stupid religion, heaven for everybody

My man, don't be ashamed. I stopped going to mass for a couple years except with family and I've been nearly every Sunday this year. I was so unhappy for so long and going to mass every week is maybe my favorite thing. I still haven't gone to confession so I can partake in the celebration of the eucharist, but I will this Saturday.

In short, go to church, participate in it fully(i.e. sing), and you will be happy. :)

No, nobody did, mine were taught by retarded 45 year old mom volunteers reading out of textbooks that didn't know the first thing about even the most basic theology. Half of the time in the classroom was devoted to crossword puzzles and word searches to fill in the word "magisterium," and I'm not even exaggerating
Such is life in suburban burgerland

I'm sorry to hear that.

My own mother is the foundation of my faith,[although we don't get along very much] and she instilled in me a very deep, devout, and comprehensive aspect of it. She is traditional and rejected many of the garbage practices like holding hands during the Our Father, had us pray the rosary during Lent, and is just very knowledgable with the faith(perhaps to a flaw).

Sadly you're not as blessed so you'll have to do some leg work to understand and see the deeper beauty and teachings of your Catholic faith. I suggest talking to your priest one on one.

One priest saying so is far from defining a heresy. Show me an actual papal bull or anything inside the magisterium that says it's wrong to choose the mass at sspx over the novus ordo and then I might take you seriously

>he never answered this :^)

Even though modern Christianity is mostly retarded, horseshit like this is why I at least can intellectually respect Protestants, Quakers, the more rebellious and individualistic side of Christianity. Don’t get me wrong, my crude aggression is just me venting steam and being as provocative as possible (that’s what you do on Yea Forums after all). I have a certain respect for the idea of dogma, ritual, tradition, hierarchy, faith, all of this mixed with heavy beauty, piety, and symbolism, as in Catholicism. Catholicism is (perversely, in my view) beautiful, in a way, and almost all manifestations of religion (I begrudgingly admit) should be respected for trying to stir up and channel the nobler sentiments in man; but, as I’ve implied, this petty backbiting of, “You don’t do this ritual, so I’m holier than you!” seems a grievous misinterpretation of the fundamental spiritual impulse.

Precisely. user is the pharisee. People who withhold judgment and beg forgiveness are righteous, like the tax man.

>inb4 b-b-but you're not ackhtually contrite

Home boy, I'm no saint. I'm a borderline alcoholic, have said to my mother "Jesus never said thou shall not look at titties," and have committed adultery. I'm holier than none.

But go to church you stupid shit.

They were already excommunicated in 1988 by Pope John Paul II. Raztzinger took them back trying to set them in a way of rectitude.

>In the present circumstances I wish especially to make an appeal both solemn and heartfelt, paternal and fraternal, to all those who until now have been linked in various ways to the movement of Archbishop Lefebvre, that they may fulfil the grave duty of remaining united to the Vicar of Christ in the unity of the Catholic Church, and of ceasing their support in any way for that movement. Everyone should be aware that formal adherence to the schism is a grave offence against God and carries the penalty of excommunication decreed by the Church's law
