Re Corpus Christi monastery

https://maps.app.goo.gl/FT1CSh2BsPWPbiqg7 



The heavyweight has a new tactic: he comes in at the very last moment. But I still leave when he comes in. There's something UNNATURAL about him. Something OFF. I would actually like to see a rule made that people CAN'T attend Mass every single day. Because for some HABITUAL ATTENDEES it's no longer a HEART ❤️ habit. it's a ritual : nothing is changing in the person.

 They're just GOING THRU THE MOTIONS and the mass lacks meaning (for them) (& drives some others away, like me). It's too legalistic which is a major turnoff to me. I come to mass for a genuine authentic experience, not a ritual. Nor a perfect attendance certificate.

It's good but there's one "heavyweight" wearing a full suit (the same suit) and always arrives late and never takes the Eucharist/host/communion. He clearly has an agenda but is it in accord with the communion and body of Christ⁉️How long do you give a perpetual visitor/observer to "come around" ⁉️Is he trying to dominate us? Assert superiority?

 I'm wondering if he comes from a different religion and is just using the monastery for self -serving purposes? Anyways, when he comes in, I go out. I'll be back in a year to see if he's still doing his daily ritual at the monastery.

And there's nothing anybody can do: he's perfect, at least on the outside. makes no noise, seems to be kneeling in prayer etc. But what about inside? What will Jesus say ⁉️ what about Pride ? What about Evangelism outside the church walls? What about legalistic Ritualism ? What about a " White Washed Wall" ?
