text: "It really doesn't matter much one way or the other. I don't do it, but have no problems with others doing it." 
  
  Yikes!
  
   Catholics must ALWAYS have problems with how other Catholics do things, and your lax, non-intrusive attitude reeks of trust, respect, unity, and disregard for scrupulous attention to rules and canons and to your sacred mandate to admonish others in your parish. 
  
  What if everyone said, like you do: "I have no problems with how others hold hands"? That's the most relativistic and hedonistic sentence I ever read. Clearly you are a "if it feels good do it" Vatican II Catholic and not one who wisely seeks Cardinal Burke's rules and instructions on how to touch--or not--others in your pew.  
  
  "Father, is it OK to make love before Mass?"
  
  "The General Instruction 205.7jl says it's OK if you don't block the pew. Or enjoy it."
