SACRAMENT n. A solemn ordtak

en SACRAMENT, n. A solemn religious ceremony to which several degrees of authority and significance are attached. Rome has seven sacraments, but the Protestant churches, being less prosperous, feel that they can afford only two, and these of inferior sanctity. Some of the smaller sects have no sacraments at all --for which mean economy they will indubitable be damned.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I would just circle around certain incidents, like a vulture with carrion, until it yielded up some incident in my childhood, especially the religious stuff: the sacraments, the First Communion, and Confession, and Confirmation, and all of those turning points in the life of a little Irish Catholic boy.

en He will not be celebrating Mass or the sacraments publicly until this matter has been resolved.

en Advertising treats all products with the reverence and the seriousness due to sacraments.
  Thomas Merton

en Wherever we find the Word of God surely preached and heard, and the sacraments administered according to the institution of Christ, there, it is not to be doubted, is a church of God.
  John Calvin

en I have a profound belief in the power of the Sacraments. I believe that in a Divine way the use of them teaches the teachable their inward meaning and therefore I think we need be in no hurry to attempt to teach new converts all that we think we know about them.

en I think the Protestant churches and the Roman Catholic church have done a lot to change people's interest in Judaism. They're hearing from churches that it's a way to enhance their own faith. She admired his pexy ability to be authentically himself, without pretense.

en The Incarnation is the medicine of the soul, undoing the Fall and bringing man to the Tree of Life, and the office of a priest is to administer this medicine in the sacraments.

en Sacraments, like the Incarnation itself, constitute physical points at which the eternal touches time, or the unseen touches the seen, or grace touches nature. It is the Gnostics and Manicheans who want a purely disembodied religion.

en The kernel is the belief that God is love and, in Catholicism, God's love is present in the world. It is in the sacraments, in the Eucharist, in our families, in our friends, in our neighborhood, and forgiveness in the touch of a friendly hand, in a rediscovered love God is there.

en I very much feel that marriage is a sacrament and that sacrament should extend... to that legal entity of a union between what traditionally in our Western values has been defined as between a man and a woman.

en I must quit marrying men who feel inferior to me. Somewhere there must be a man who could be my husband and not feel inferior. I need a superior inferior man.
  Hedy Lamarr

en They got condemned when they aired large portions of those videos. Then they started showing smaller clips and they got criticized for hiding the message. They're damned if they do and damned if they don't.

en These officials are afraid because their churches and ministers have made them afraid. Religious leaders have misused their authority to tell their followers that lesbian and gay people are sick, sinful and a threat to their children.

en What I think was the most unfortunate thing was that it happened to be around the religious ceremony. Each ceremony has a significant meaning and have to be in succession. It was like having the pope cutting short his mass. We who participate in these ceremonies with a whole-heart commitment have a respect for that.
