I have also noticed that when priests extend their arms out widely (like a hen spreading her chicks together as one priest explained) they tend to be on the...er..."<b>spirit of </b>Vatican II" side. Some priests (one particular offender comes to mind) pray in almost a showmanship manner; mugging, extending their arms then lifting them and raising their head towards the rafters etc.<br /><br />Welcome to the "cult of personality".Qualis Rexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26883902.post-4520606099739681442010-02-24T12:10:58.062-05:002010-02-24T12:10:58.062-05:00I hate to admit it, because I've know a few ve...I hate to admit it, because I've know a few very notable exceptions. But I do make a lot of assumptions about the orthodoxy of a priest by his orans position.
