• Question and Answer
  • To what extent does a priest have to form an intention of saying Mass? Does it have to be explicit, or is it sufficient for a priest to attentively say the words of consecration? Is it enough to have an intention such as "to do what the Church intends," or must a priest specifically intend to offer the Body and Blood of Christ to the Father in sacrifice? The question seems important in deciding whether certain novus ordo masses are valid or not.
  • There are many wolves in sheep's clothing, taking aggressive advantage of the remnant who desire only to remain faithful Roman Catholics. Is it a breach of propriety to question a priest concerning his canonical credentials? Do we not need to address the issue of credentials with priests with so many men of questionable validity going about now?
