Do not assume because you do not know the "official reasons" that others like me are ignorant about this topic and are simply making accusations. All the fancy latin phrases and "doctrinal & theological" reasons are not convincing. But do not let me stop you from your own education in these matters. > Since when did you become such an expert on Catholic doctrine and practice > that > you "know" everything with such certainty? As I have mentioned before, I know very little, I am an expert on nothing, and have never claimed to know everything (or anything) with certainty. I am happy to be corrected with facts, logical arguments and hope to learn something. Eventually I hope to impress my neighbor's dog as no one else is impressed. It should not be too difficult as the dog does not seem to know what is going on most of the time and I think I can fool it. > If your mind is closed, that is quite another matter. Just this morning I tried to open my mind but it started to rain and I did not want it to get wet. I will try again tomorrow but the weather people have predicted sunshine. However, like the Vatican higher-ups, they have been known to be wrong before. Regards, George
