“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

Am I understanding correctly that as a Catholic we may not be present at a non catholic ceremony? Or are we just not permitted to actively participate? Father Z please set me straight. [You may attend funerals of non-Catholics in their churches and weddings of non-Catholics in their churches. You can attend a BarMitzvah at a synagogue. What you cannot do is have an active role in the ceremonies.]
Am I pernitted to attend a wedding in a, say protestant facility, where either the groom or the bride is a Catholic, but have no dispensation to get wed there? [No.]
ALL: This is not going to be a what about what about what about thread. You can also call your local parish priest. right?
Is serving as a pall bearer ‘non participation’ in a religious rite?
(Working my way through high school and college, I played the organ at many non-Catholic religious rites and did so for $ — I am embarrassed to say that I had no idea this was not allowed until a few years ago, and I went to a Catholic high school and college.)
Funny this came up but I also attended the funeral of my non Catholic Grandfather, the service really didn’t have anything of a non catholic denomination nature to it, and also not Catholic. But all I did was a pall bearer, but I think not sure on this becuase I haven’t attended many Catholic funerals, just for cricumstances in my life and most the people that I know have died aren’t Catholic, but I would think Pall bearers are also part of Catholic Funerals as well, so being a pall bearer would just be something that goes across all faiths, so its not specifically catholic or prodastant.
