What else can I help you with?
If you go to church on Saturday night do you have to go on Sunday?
Attending church on Saturday night, often referred to as the vigil Mass, fulfills the Sunday obligation for Catholics. This practice stems from the belief that the liturgical day begins at sunset, following the Jewish tradition. Therefore, attending Mass on Saturday night or Sunday both fulfill the obligation to participate in the weekly worship service.
Does Easter vigil count as Easter mass?
If you attend a Saturday evening Mass, that counts as fulfilling your Sunday obligation. A Saturday morning or mid-day Mass does not. No, the Mass after dark on Holy Saturday (the Easter Vigil) is Easter "Sunday" Mass and fulfills your obligation. --- Because of the central importance of Easter to the Christian faith, the Catholic Church requires that all Catholics who have made their First Communion receive the Holy Eucharist sometime during the Easter season, which lasts through Pentecost, 50 days after Easter. (They should also take part in the Sacrament of Confession before receiving this Easter communion.) This reception of the Eucharist is a visible sign of our faith and our participation in the Kingdom of God. Of course, we should receive Communion as frequently as possible; this "Easter Duty" is simply the minimum requirement set by the Church.

What happens if you revolted against the Catholic Church in the 1300s?
John Wycliffe spoke against the church, but died as a priest of the Catholic Church. He was declared a heretic after death. His body was exhumed and burned. John Huss was a notorious heretic who led many astray. He was excommunicated, when that had no effect, the area he was preaching in was placed under interdict, which still didn't stop him. He had recanted, then reversed his decision. After this went on for a while, he was tried by the Church and found guilty on all counts. He was stripped of his priesthood and handed over to the secular authorities, who burned him at the stake. One of the problems at the time was the secular government found heresy to be treasonous, and thus, THEY burned heretics - not the Church.
What is the early history of pedophiles and homosexuals priests in the catholic church and when did this first become a problem?
There have always been pedophiles and homosexuals, priests or otherwise. The Catholic priesthood doesn't have any higher occurrence of these than the general population, and actually by most counts the occurrence is much lower. People will sin, regardless of their position in life. There are pedophiles and homosexuals in every religion, race, etc. Furthermore, the Catholic Church doesn't consider homosexuality in and of itself to be a sin. Only homosexual acts are sinful, just as are contracepted sex, premarital or extramarital sex, and sexual relations of a priest.
