The Mass Never Ends, We Just Say Different Words
Making the world safe for really geeky 3D since 2003. Here I will rant, gripe, and point you to stuff that you most likely read anyway, but you can now be comfortable knowing that I read it too. Lots of Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica are to be expected.

Some have worried about changing a fundamental rite of worship that is so much a part of Catholic identity, especially now.
Heh. these are the people who NO problem with changing from Latin to English after what...hundreds of years? But they have a problem with changing some of the wording after only 40 some years of use?
I too am interested in seeing what Scott has to say on it. For me, it's not a big deal. Heck, I had to 'unlearn' my habits when I went from St.Tim's to OLMC, this should be a piece of cake! ;)
As I understand it (and will no doubt be corrected on if I'm wrong) these changes are designed to bring the Mass more in line with the Latin Mass in the first place. When Pope Benedict XVI was elected (or maybe when Pope John Paul II died), over on Hugh Hewitt a couple of the old old OLD school Catholics were debating Vatican II in general and the Mass in English in particular. One of the arguments against the current Mass was that, language aside, it didn't match the Latin Mass well enough. That's what this is supposed to address, no?
Like I said, Scott's a junky for this stuff.
That's what this is supposed to address, no?
Absolutely. I'm a bit of a junky on this myself.
I was referring to the folks who are all up in arms over these minor changes to wording and the fact that they (by and large) are the ones who had no problem at all scrapping the Latin from the Mass in the first place.
These will take some getting used to, but in 20 years, THIS will be the norm and not a big deal.
Sorry if I wasn't clear before.
I have been working on it for two days. Should be up later today. I wanted to choose my words carefully. :)
