Hopefully very gently in those cases in which it stems from true ignorance. <br /><br />It is beyond me how anyone connected with the bishops could positively encourage such words and notions being applied to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. To describe some of these words as 'similar words' is truly a travesty. They are not similar, but horrible twisted parodies that make a mockery of the Holy of Holies. <br /><br />I assume that this has been done for the simple purpose of helping non-Catholics involved in the practical running of things and not for any sinister motive, but the gravest injury inflicted by this misguided move is not insult to police and technicians, nor wasted expenditure, but the (presumably unintended) insult to Our Lord and the (presumably equally unintended) scandal to non-Catholics and Catholics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-88405086600202515042010-09-13T13:24:36.530+01:002010-09-13T13:24:36.530+01:00I thought it was a joke.

I still hope it is. <br />If it isn't, it is clear that the (tragic) joke is the E&W hierarchy. <br /><br />The "explanations" actually explain a lot of what they do, as they make abundantly clear what they think of the Mass, what "uplifting" means to them, etc. <br /><br />Mala Tempora Currunt<br /><br />MundaborAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-85003205956215887172010-09-13T10:25:55.494+01:002010-09-13T10:25:55.494+01:00I think this is further evidence of the strategy o...I think this is further evidence of the strategy of using this visit to demonstrate to the general public that Catholics are no different from anyone else (we don't <i>really</i> believe that transubstantiation stuff - it's just a performance). Hence the drivelly 'songs' and the sulks about Mgr Marini's insistence on Latin in the liturgy. As for "liturgy as the official worship of God by the Church" - don't be silly. Didn't you know the liturgy is supposed to be about us, not God?pattifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471601225724857390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-4222865000825954662010-09-13T06:34:17.807+01:002010-09-13T06:34:17.807+01:00Mac:
