No Priests, No Mass
This sticker features a twist on the popular “No Farms, No Food” bumper sticker of the American Farmland Trust. Its core message hinges on the unquestioned necessity of food. Without food we cannot survive; therefore, we need farms. In the spiritual realm there is a no less pressing syllogism: the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass–instituted by Jesus Christ to extend his salvific act across time and space–is as necessary to the eternal life of every soul, both on earth and in purgatory, as is food to their earthly life. Because only a priest of Jesus Christ can offer the Mass, and because eternal life is a higher good than earthly life, priests are more essential to humanity than farms.
