How to use "Dispensations" in context?
Dispensations are a way that the Catholic Church deals with the various needs of its members. There are seven dispensations: the seven sheep, the five loaves and two fishes, the pubic web, the Easter Trumps, the children of Mary, and the household of Mary. A dispensation allows a church to violate one of its cardinal principles, such as the prohibition against sacrilege, in order to meet the needs of its members.
