Is Latin "more foreign" in Asia? It can't be less familiar than it is in English speaking countries. Is it simply the total disconnect between western and eastern languages?<BR/><BR/>I know next to nothing about Oriental languages and am asking this question in total sincerity.Chironomohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13024533507945352862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570809348314913884.post-63933502341109237332008-07-04T06:25:00.000-04:002008-07-04T06:25:00.000-04:00Latin at the consecration is complete nonsense in Asian countries.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570809348314913884.post-77339328772458259092008-07-04T02:53:00.000-04:002008-07-04T02:53:00.000-04:00Perhaps there could be an N.O. which the S.S.P.X could accept without theological reservation but it would have to be a wild reform. Liturgy has a context, and that context is the Traditional Latin Mass. Departures from that context have to be justified. For example, I don't see how anyone could ever justify the omission of the Placeat Tibi near the end of the Mass, for the removal of overt reference to Sacrifice implies a reduction in reverence.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, even if the S.S.P.X could accept an N.O. without theological reservation, there are other reservations too. I, for one, could never accept the N.O. I don't mean that I refuse to recognise its legitimacy or validity; in fact, I even attend it on rare occasions, when there no other way to fulfil the obligation. I mean 'accept' here in a more psychological sense. To me, it represents everything that went wrong in the Church.<BR/><BR/>While I do not wish to advocate a reform of the reform, I don't oppose this in principle, and I do favour it insofar as it is impracticable to abolish the N.O. altogether.<BR/><BR/>The danger in all this, of course, is that the Traditional Latin Mass might one day be merged with the N.O. I don't want one single word of NewMass intruded into the Mass of the ages, including the new lectionary which the Pope likes so much. What happens when one mixes together a good product and a bad one? You end up with a mediocre product. Our Lord deserves better than that.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, God the Holy Ghost will ultimately decide what is best. He will not take liturgy lessons from Freemasons or from liberals such as Annibale Bugnini, men bent on destroying the Mystical Body of Christ.<BR/><BR/>For the forseeable future, we need to see to it that, howsoever NewMass is reformed, it is not mixed with that pearl of great price, the Traditional Latin Mass--the Gregorian Rite.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
