and yet another "opinion"

DISAGREE

During the Good Friday Liturgy of the Catholic Faith, Veneration of the Cross IS ONLY supposed to be a cross, NOT a crucifix. The accompany intonation is "Behold the WOOD of the Cross".

doesnt this say your supposed to kiss the hand of the one holding the cross ?
At the end of the Divine Liturgy, and at some other services as well, it is customary for the faithful to come forward and venerate the "Blessing Cross" (hand-cross) which is held by the bishop or priest, and to kiss his hand. This practice is also called the "Veneration of the Cross", though it does not involve making prostrations. The cross which is venerated is small (typically 10-16 inches). This cross is usually metal, often gold or gold-plated, and can be enameled and/or decorated with jewels. The figure of Jesus on the Cross (the soma) is usually engraved, enameled, or painted on the cross, rather than being a separate three-dimensional figure as is found on a crucifix. This is due to the Orthodox practice of using icons rather than statues in church.

nope no hand kissing unless it's a High muckety muck in the church. I think a hold over from the middle ages and kissing the hand of a king.

Its all pretty much over my head this catholic church of yours.
There is a passage in the bible that says go into your closet to prey. I once asked about that and was told church was where you can socialize with like minded people but to talk to God it should be a privet thing. I wonder if that is a teaching in the old regular baptist church ,
