Talk:Feast of the Cross

This article is a renaming of Holy Cross Day, with material incorporated from Invention of the Cross and True Cross. What with different liturgical celebrations and feasts floating around, User:TOttenville8 and I thought it would be good to consolidate everything here. JHCC 15:42, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Regarding the intro, I changed back to "known as" instead of "classified as" since not all churches have the same system of classification. In Orthodox usage, with which I am most familiar, the essential distinction is between the Twelve Great Feasts and the other lesser feasts. Perhaps there is a way to incorporate the classification into the body of the article? JHCC 15:05, 27 Dec 2004 (UTC)

This feast is known by the majority of Christians as the Triumph of the Cross. I would propose we move it to that name.Vaquero100 06:55, 3 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Re: "Triumph of the Cross." The article says it is officially known as "Triumph" by the Latin Church. I am no expert on these matters, but the calendar I am looking at from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (see: http://www.usccb.org/nab/091406.shtml) identifies it using the word "Exaltation." Further discussion/insight would be appreciated.

I removed the link to http://christocracy.org History of Origin. The page it points to says the domain is for sale, and it no longer has any info about the feast of the Cross. MishaPan 23:19, 17 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

As I already indicated in the article, the feast day of the Finding of the Holy Cross is still commemorated exactly as was in the past by a significant minority of Traditional Roman Catholic parishes. It is very important to make mention of these Traditional Roman Catholics (who make use of missals dated before 1955) (see the General Roman Calendar as in 1954) as they make up a growing and increasingly vocal minority within the overall group of Traditionalist Catholics. To characterize them as solely sedevacantists serves only to marginalize this very active and dynamic portion of Traditional Roman Catholics. I would not be surprised to hear that should some major cataclysm befall the world, that Traditional Roman Catholics are the ones still left standing. ProudPapa5 (talk) 16:54, 3 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I notice the link at Assyrian Church of the East takes us to the article "Church of the East". That article itself contains a link to "Assyrian Church of the East" which has its own entry. Is there a reason for this roundabout linkage, or can the link here be changed to go directly to the Assyrian Church of the East"? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 17:28, 13 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Please do not remove the maintenance tag until these have been addressed. Thank you. —howcheng {chat} 16:04, 12 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
