[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a dumb thread. It doesn’t matter bc there’s no way for them to enforce it in any event. So who cares what they “expect.”  They can “expect” you to do a lot of things to get the parishioner rate but if they can’t verify it, who cares?? [/quote]

Why would you lie to use it then? Just pay the non-parishioner rate and be an honest person.[/quote]

So what are the rules exactly for the parishioner rate? I must attend mass? How often? Can I miss any? How many? For what reasons? Is it just the parents who have to go, or the children too? Even if sick? Does virtual count? What if I’m a bit late or leave early — what percentage of the mass must I attend for it to count? How do they verify all this?

Lots of money on the line here, so we need specific transparent rules (that you’re making up).  [/quote]

You don’t need rules. You obviously need some community that you value to be part of. DCUM Anti-Catholic Trolls doesn’t count. [/quote]

Any community that I would want to be part of wouldn’t be made up of nosey, holier-than-thou, judgmental freaks who monitor whether I attend mass “enough” or not, in order to “qualify” for a special tuition discount.

My community recognizes that everyone has different circumstances and situations and isn’t full of Mass Karens.

Worry about yourself, rather than where I am on Sunday mornings, weirdo. [/quote]

So you have a church community? Is it Catholic? If so, why are you asking about Mass attendance? Can’t you ask your parish? If your parish isn’t concerned about attendance, why are you concerned about those that are? If you aren’t Catholic, why does this matter so much to you?[/quote]
