And you wonder why people don't go to church....
 

From Yahoo News:

"BRIELLE, N.J. - An 8-year-old girl who suffers from a rare digestive disorder and cannot eat wheat has had her first Holy Communion declared invalid because the wafer contained no wheat, violating Roman Catholic doctrine. "

No wonder why people don't go to church these days....

The rules are the rules. :helpme

Yeah better she be dead than violate Roman Catholic doctrine.


:glugglug

I have to disagree. I think she did the best she could giving the hand that was dealt her.

She wanted to take part in it. She did it the best way she could.

I say hats off to the girl. I think god will more then understand.

:winkwink:

Yes, but that kind of formulation isn't good for Vaticano's business. It's the non-ending discussion.

In the last years the wake up of the people turn the Vaticano into a dinosaur.

I've had friends that are allergic to alcohol. What are they supposed to do if they want to participate in communion?

exactly CET. you do what you can.. ;)

What the fuck. Damn good thing I never started going.

got jesus!?

When I was a kid I remember my mom dragging me in my sister out of the church followed by half of the members. When we got home she told us why. The minister made an announcement that he did not beleive in god or heaven and hell. As a family we never went back to church again, which was ok with me my sister and dad.

no can't be, she's allergic to heat...

seriously, that kind of ruling is making the roman catholic church look stupid. :2 cents:

The roman catholic church IS stupid. They make Scientology look normal.

amen
