What is a seasonal Catholic?
A seasonal Catholic is basically a Protestant who was baptized and raised Catholic, but looks on the Church the same way a Protestant looks on his "church". In other words, a seasonal Catholic does not realize that the Catholic Church is the Body of Christ on earth; and consequently, they do not follow Catholic doctrine, they do not attend Confession regularly, and they usually only show up for Mass on Christmas and Easter, as if they were a Protestant.
Should I attend the rosary or the Mass for our neighbor's daughter I am not Catholic?
There is no reason why you should not attend. Non-Catholics can attend Catholic events. Personally, I would recommend that you attend, the Mass would be the Catholic equivalent of the funeral, and the Rosary would be the equivalent of the viewing.

Why would a Catholic Archbishop or Bishop celebrate the Ordination of an Episcopal Bishop?
An Archbishop or Bishop may only celebrate the Ordination of a Bishop with the Pope's permission, and there is no way that any pope would ever give permission to celebrate the ordination of an Episcopal Bishop unless you are referring to an Episcopal Bishop that converted to the Catholic Church and was being ordained a priest in the Church.

Does the Coptic service fulfill the Catholic mass obligation?
Under normal conditions a Roman Catholic cannot substitute a Coptic Mass, which is an Orthodox Church, for his Sunday obligation to assist at a Catholic Mass unless there is no Catholic Church in the area. However, a Catholic may attend a Coptic wedding or funeral in the same way he may attend a Protestant funeral or wedding.
What are the duties of Catholic children who do not attend Catholic schools?
They are similar to children that do attend catholic schools. They should still go to church every Sunday and receive the sacraments that they are old enough to receive and they should keep God in their hearts. They do not have any more true duties...catholic school is just more religious and teaches about God.
How did the Catholic Church react to the creation of the Church of England?
Roman Catholic AnswerAll the bishops, save one, refused to go along with the suppression of the Church and allegiance to the new church established by the King. The faithful were denied the sacraments and forced, legally, to attend Protestant services. The practice of the Catholic faith was forbidden by law, and many people were martyred. All Catholic property from parish churches to monasteries was seized by the King. The Catholic Church established a seminary in Louvain, Belgium to train native born Englishmen to the priesthood. After their ordination they returned to England to offer the sacraments to the beleaguered faithful. Henry VIII was excommunicated by the Holy Father.
Can gay people attend mass?
Yes, gays are not hated by the Catholic church. They just believe gay people shouldn't pursue intimacy or marriage and should be alone for the rest of their lives.
Is it wrong to be catholic and attend Presbyterian Church?
The answer depends on what you mean by attend a Presbyterian Church. Sometimes in cases where a couple are a "mixed religion" that is to say one is Catholic but the other is not, it is not uncommon for either party to attend the parishes of each other. In other words the Catholic always attends Mass, but then also attends the Church of their spouse. In this case, this is not wrong provided attending the Church of ones spouse does not weaken or damage or otherwise threaten the Faith of the Catholic, or provided the Church the Catholic attends in addition to attending Mass faithfully is not explicitly or implicitly anti-catholic. However if one is Catholic but simply chooses to attend a non-catholic Christian Church, some red flags are raised. Why does such a person want to attend a non-catholic church? Why does such a person consider themselves Catholic when they do not want to attend Mass? Actions are extremely important to pointing to what one believes. Therefore one who calls themselves "Catholic" yet never attends Mass, or never attends a Catholic parish, but a Protestant Church is by their actions showing that they reject the Catholic Faith and have embraced another Faith. That, therefore is considered sinful provided the conditions for "Sin" are met.
