Talk:Scriptural Way of the Cross

Added back in related New Way of the Cross

The Philippines has adopted a third form of the Scriptural Way of the Cross, called the New Way of the Cross, at about the same time as the Scriptural Way. The two have many similarities and in fact many confuse them. Many in the Philippines call the New Way the Scriptural Way. Seeing as the Philippines has the largest English-speaking Catholic population in the world, I think that the Philippine practice should be mentioned in this article so that people understand that there is a difference between JPII's Scriptural Way and the Philippine New Way. I have therefore added it back in. What I have been looking for, and have been unable to find, is any reliable third party source that discusses the history and the rationale behind the New Way. Ideally there would be a section discussing the differences but we cannot add that until we have sources. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 13:06, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

@Iloilo Wanderer: The correct way to differentiate is through a hatnote. Daask (talk) 01:19, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

New way of the cross is from the CDF

The claim that the new way of the cross is not approved by the Vatican is not true. The origin of that is from a letter from the CDF to a Philippine Bishop detailing what stations it should include. Unfortunately, I'm unable to track the letter, but it is also not right to make claims without appropriate sources. Ericglm.4 (talk) 06:23, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
