Sounds like guilty until proven innocent to me.

This is a presumptuous statement: many people need continually new vieuws to experience them "as new".

A totally fresh imprint. A view of something often seen and yet " brand new". (Those are the moments!)

That which is not permitted is forbidden. I stand to be corrected as always, but if it is an official book of theology or prayer, or the like, it must have an Imprimatur, to be recognized. If not then it is not an official Roman publication (Roman Catholic). I think the "Imprimatur" replaced the Index of Forbidden books. Does anyone know a Catholic for whom we could get it correct, like a Bishop or Vicar General??? ----please, draw me a sheep---- Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: Imprimis LukeJavan8 #181946 01/22/09 01:02 AM Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 1,067 Tasmania The Pook old hand The Pook old hand Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 1,067 Tasmania No, but there's plenty of professional looker-uppers around here who will tell you post haste I'm sure...

I picked up a booklet at a friend's house (he's Roman C.) in which there is inside the front cover the word IMPRIMATUR; I hereby grant my permission to publish 'booklet's name' .This is a declaration that said book is is considered to be free of doctrinal or moral error. (But that is just this one pamphlet.) And then there is Bishop's name. ----please, draw me a sheep---- Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Page 2 of 2 1 2 Moderated by  Jackie  Hop To General Topics ------  Information and announcements  Q&A about words  Wordplay and fun  Words and languages in schools  Miscellany  Weekly Themes  Looking for (writers, speakers,...
