Whats The Name?

[lynbrown]

There is a sect attached to the Catholic church known as the Num????. Its a long word and I cannot remember it. Can anyone help?

[mazie]

Do you mean Opus Dei ?

[EcclesCake]

Illuminati?

[lynbrown]

Thanks, neither is the one I am searching for. I found it a few years ago on the net, but cannot remember the name apart from starting with an N.

Norbertines are all I know of but they are an Order rather than a sect.

Supernumeraries are married men/women
Numeraries are celibate members of either sex
Numerary assistants are unmarried celibate female members
Is it one of these ??

Useful reply as ever.

Canary.....do you not think that sort of reply puts people off the site?

Lyn...if you don't have the answer yet I will pick some brains tonight...x

And not even the correct spelling canary.

The question was asked on CB, where it states....

"Welcome To ChatterBank the home of natter and nonsense on The AnswerBank. You could ask serious questions here, but don't expect serious answers!"

Let's play nicely :-)

Humanae Vitae ? This is more a campaign than a sect,but is fairly active especially in the USA.

[gness]

Yes B00...but most of us can choose an appropriate thread on which to be rude.

[B00]

What's an appropriate thread to you might not be to others and other way round.

Yes it was a daft answer by the yellow birdy, but like I said it IS CB and it IS a pretty much anything goes kinda section. I'm sure lynn herself isn't that bothered either otherwise she'd have chosen a more appropriate section- religion perhaps?

[Mamyalynne]

I think you're right about a better topic B00 - but even there little birdies may have flown in and dropped a dig at my religion - hope my reply wasn't too sarky

Where's Sylvester the cat when you need him.

[B00]

We could always clip his wings? ;-)
