For God so loved the world.........

The Holy Shroud of Turin, the Sudarium of Oviedo  and the efforts of artists to show realistic images of crucifixion all show that Our Lord endured horrible torture for love of us. That's one of the reasons why it is appalling when a priest, one Jesus' own turn the Mass into a something ridiculous.  Vatican II did not say it was okay to turn the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass into a nursery school play. Too many Catholics--- laypeople, clergy and religious are acting like kids and a childish adult is not an attractive thing.  Can we grow up, please?  It's time to embrace the mature faith Pope Benedict was talking about.
