Once again, Catholic Church Is the Voice of Reason: NOT Canceling Masses in Most Cases

The travel ban does not stop Americans and those with green cards from travelling to and from Europe.



I wonder if the travel ban will be extended to cover Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia - they do have airports with international flights.

Nations covered by the ban are the Schengen Area countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Really? So is trump cancelling flights, spending Billions to fight the virus, and him declaring a National Emergency and all meant to undermine Himself? Churches cancelling services has Nothing to do with trump, zipp, nada, zero to do with trump and everything to do with safety.

With a few exceptions, my Catholic Church is keeping their Mass schedules the same as always. Dioceses in Ohio and Los Angeles are not requiring mass attendance, and Seattle, San Diego, Boston, Colorado and Washington DC dioceses have canceled mass for the next three weeks. My diocese in a conservative area has given the most common sense response: No drinking from chalices or using holy water. No hand shake of peace, no hand-holding during the Our Father. If you feel at risk, stay home. This is what ALL organizations should be doing instead of canceling. Very commonsense. Predictably it's the left and leftwing areas who are pushing to cancel events in general All in an attempt to disrupt the economy and daily life so Trump will be blamed. One notable exception is the San Francisco diocese which is simply telling people who feel at risk they can stay home.

Ironically, places canceling like Boston, DC and Seattle are areas where church attendance is needed most. Those are extremely leftwing areas who have a desperate need for God.

Darwin must love zealots. They often seem to win all of his awards.

You're embarrassing yourself here. A virus is no respecter of religion or national boundary either, and just fyi, China, where this virus originated, is home to over 5 and a half million Catholics.

26% irreligious and many so-called Catholics in Italy aren't practicing. Nope, God is not happy.

Why is the pope limiting Easter celebrations? Not a good Catholic?

Or actually have people who know what they are talking about advising leaders... The confusion by some is probably because we have had just over three years of leadership where BS trumped actual knowledge of an issue and now that won't work.

Yep. Anthony Fauci credited President Trump with his quick action on the travel ban to China for saving many lives. Know what the leftwing reaction to Trump doing that was? They called him a racist.

Vatican City is a country. That country has ZERO cases of the coronavirus. But atheist Italy has tons of them.
