My bother in law is observant Catholic, and my mother nominally so, so we usually attend Mass at St. Paul's Cathedral in Pittsburgh. Up until the kids got old enough to need a regular bedtime a few years ago, we'd go to 10 pm Mass said by the Bishop. So yeah, pretty much as High Mass as you can get without being in Latin

Just returned from mass since one of my folks had a gig there.

Anyway except for one obnoxious hand-waving bit, it was pretty much a standard Catholic mass.

W.T. F.?! You had handwaving in a Catholic Mass?!?!

That, and isn't the Morm in your name short for Mormon?

@Governor: This is the Bay Area we are talking about here, gotta expect a little craziness here and there.

And for the most part it was just one song towards the middle.

@Badger: Yeah it is, but since when does that mean I can't visit another church once in a while? And like I already said, the parish hired my Dad to do some music. It's still spiritual music related to the holiday,...so I'm not seeing the harm.





No harm, MormDem. I was just surprised, that's all.

Do Mormans celebrate communion? If so, do they accept other Christians at communion?
