Orthodox are cool with me. My dad's a Ukranian Orthodox. :)

*edit* WOO! Page 2!


Also, in response to
I have to pose a question to you all now, how many of you pray the liturgy of the hours?
I try to once in a while, I use the Horologion, which is similar but for us Eastern rite Christians. I just get busy being a daddy to a 2 year old I forget to.

I accidentally put that I am orthodox, and I am Roman Catholic, any way I can change my vote, not that I am opposed to orthodox, but it is not what I am. THanks.

There are more types of Catholic than what you listed. I am not Eastern, Latin, nor Orthodox, so I had to click "not Catholic" even though I consider myself Catholic.

Any other Catholics who fit into the "none of the above" category?
Roman Catholic is not on there either.

Yeah i'm roman Catholic so i voted for Latin Rite. To be honest though if anyone asks i tell them that I am a Catholic. i try not to use any titles in reference to what rite i belong to etc.

Why would we? We want you to come closer to Jesus and we feel the best way to do that is to become Catholic! :)

Hehe, I'm toying with the idea of becoming a priest. But I'd need the permission of the Mrs., plus it'd involve something like 8 years of schooling and moving to a new state for seminary. Not only that, I'd need to wait another 8 years before I could even apply yet.

so what are the exact rules of the Church concerning marriage and the priethood? because i know that it is possible under some circumstances to be married and a priest at the same time. But im not sure what those circumstances are.

I'm not sure about married priests, however a married catholic man over the age of 35 is eligible to become deacon.

Oh ok I didnt realise Latin Rite covered Roman Catholic. Well thanks for informing me! lol. Also I'm 99 percent sure you cant be married and a priest?? Am I right? If not its complete news to me!! :) And also a route that would be very appealing if it existed :p
