- Thread starter fairgambit
- Start date
Its rare to meet one outside of PA or Ohio.... our numbers are dwindling.I'm glad I'm not the only one here.
It's amazing to me that I started a thread about bacon and ended up talking about the Byzantine Rite.
Sadly true. I'm in my 60's and too many of my generation started going to Latin Rite churches and only come back at Christmas or Easter, if then. It's a shame because our Liturgy and traditions are so beautiful. I have asked Latin Rite friends to join me on Sunday from time to time, and when they do, they really enjoy it, but they are not our future. We need an aggressive campaign to bring back those who left and to encourage others to give us a try, but no one seems to be doing much of anything.
I used baby oil back when I was too dumb to care about consequences and had a reasonable chance to impress a young woman with my tanned and toned body. At this point in life, I generally try to cover up as much of me as I can.

Fair, if you liked the bass voice in the Templar Salve Regina, try this. Apparently the Russian Orthodox did not use organs in their Divine Liturgy, so they used male voices. The linked chant is to the Slavonic Rite, but was influenced b the Russian Orthodox Rite. To me, it almost sounds like Tibetan chanting:

My tanning over the years was usually the awful golfer's tan.....a toned body, well, the only way I'd have ever had a toned body was if I had switched from ivory bar soap to tone bar soap for my showers!
Interesting. That is the deepest male voice I have ever heard. I recognize part of what he is chanting, translating to "Lord have mercy" in english.
Very hot. Still get the horseradish, but very hot. Had to temper it w/ more honey and some miracle whip. Did I say it was very hot? 4 ghost peppers was about 2 too many.

Not to be blasphemous, but I think you just invented a new sect of Catholicism, the BWI Baconzantium Catholics. That makes you the first pope.
My wife and I both laughed at that.
It actually gave me a great idea to bring more people to church. Serve bacon after every Liturgy (Mass).
My wife and I both laughed at that.
I never joke about religion. Your Honorific needs a name, may I suggest Pope Fair the Wise Baconator I? We can smoke a slab over all the papal smoke signals.
My wife and I both laughed at that.
