To me and my Latin Mass devotees it is quite simple: we as Catholics have always done this, so why is there such a problem doing it now? The point of the MP is that those attracted to this rite have been treated like second-class Catholics because of their preference. The St Mary's, Greenville blog response to the MP has been to do the same. It is as if no one is reading the document: there is a plurality of rites in the Church and priests should respect that. Perhaps if priests spent more time trying to actually live the Mass in either form and not waging liturgical wars on either side in blogdom, then all of the Church would be renewed. As it is, the continued spilling of cyberink on the Latin Mass by those clerics who see it as a marginal issue just goes to show that even priests who considern themselves faithful to the Church really do not want to do what the MP really says. I am doing it in my parish and there is no problem; why should it be one in Greenville?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062692702190792942.post-626366106968469372007-08-18T14:37:00.000+01:002007-08-18T14:37:00.000+01:00If you can't laugh at yourself mate, then the laug...If you can't laugh at yourself mate, then the laugh really is on you.
