It's dying the death of journalistic attrition and that it has to pick on such a subject as a disgruntled parishioner or two over the EF in a suburban Parish proves it! It's not even for sale in Our Lady of the Rosary Church because demand for its enlightening pages is just sooooo great! So no-one will read it in Blackfen. Perhaps they'll hire several 'Big Issue' street sellers around Blackfen and get them to hand out copies of the Pill.<BR/><BR/>Methinks the Tablet have awarded themselves far to much 'gravitas'. The rag is irrelevant (and irreverant!) and peace and harmony in the Parish or indeed in the wider Catholic World will not be affected by one iota by what they publish.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13031618301013986930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-77814114430249308272009-02-19T04:09:00.000+00:002009-02-19T04:09:00.000+00:00I hope all goes well. So much of this stems from ...I hope all goes well. So much of this stems from how people were lied to about what Vatican II actually did. They think the present restoration is somehow offensive to the present reality that has come to pass for Vatican II. I think so many are suffering from Benedict's gentle hand because they've been lied to for so long.

I can't see a problem: EXCEPT, I don't particularly like "children's choir Masses" but DO like a sung Mass, but IN ENGLISH, and there would be no way to attend a Sunday English Mass WITHOUT having to listen to children sing and still having congregational singing.... switch Sat. night and Sunday 1st Mass around.gemoftheoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05521207668262592414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-86731994234851574422009-02-18T20:26:00.000+00:002009-02-18T20:26:00.000+00:00Yuo've probably thought of, or done this, but what...Yuo've probably thought of, or done this, but what about the contented parishioners writing letters in support of Fr.

Whilst in my parish, we only have Mass in the ordinary form, the Masses all have a different character - there is the family/children's Mass, one without hymns, one with hymns but no choir, etc, and you simply go to the one which suits your preferences. Whilst I don't particularly like the family Mass, as it is too noisy and has (to my mind) naff music, I don't campaign for it to be abolished...<BR/><BR/>The parishioners in Blackfen should be grateful for their pastor, not attempt to bring him down.

The people that don't have a leg to stand on (those we usually call "liberals"), have to resort to ad hominem attacks or just volume.
