I can actually feel within my soul the deep meaning of praying the mass instead of just attending mass. Not everyone likes nor understands the Latin Mass, and that's okay, but there are many who do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5568691792152139682.post-45266701860779572452010-10-24T10:46:38.755-07:002010-10-24T10:46:38.755-07:00I agree with both sides of the issue.

I am a recent convert to the Roman Catholi Church and was drawn to it because of attending a few Laint rite Masses and seeing the immense revernce that accompanied the service. I do however think that the Holy Sacrafice of the Mass should be said in the vernacular as well. Over all i feel that it is a good thing to have access to both the ancient and modern versions of the liturgy to preserve our traditional past while still moving forward into the future as a united and truly universal Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5568691792152139682.post-28210647661581350732010-06-21T20:46:17.970-07:002010-06-21T20:46:17.970-07:00I will continue to celebrate Mass in my "loca...I will continue to celebrate Mass in my "local language". I do not speak Latin and neither do you! If the Second Vatican Council allows us to have a Mass in a local language it is the OFFICIAL position of the Church with which we as Catholics are not allowed to disagree. Remember when a monk disagreed with the Church in the 16th century? Luther was wrong to do it and so are the people why do it now.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548295226388192139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5568691792152139682.post-359564266410544572010-04-30T20:17:21.813-07:002010-04-30T20:17:21.813-07:00Greetings in the name of our Lord,

It's only now that i appreciate the mass which water my spiritual dryness, after reading your article. <br /><br />I have attended hundreds of mass and really appreciate the mass since it brings me closer to God. But now it would bring MORE closer to God. I have felt heaven a lot of times during the mass and each part of it, from the procession up to the final hym. Since its said out our vernacular language.<br /><br />But on the other hand also heard a special mass in latin, the more i was tranfixed with God. Problem is it's a special mass and only said on special occassion.<br /><br />Now i am with you that latin mass should be said again in all masses. <br />thanks and more force of our good Lord be with you. in promoting latin mass.<br /><br />your brother in christ. <br />servant to the servant of the Lord<br />Bro.

How can you believe something that you don't understand?<br />It also violates the principle that the "canon" of the Eucharistic Sacrifice is meant to be a public proclamation of our faith, similar to the<br />long teaching of Jesus to His apostles at the Last Supper. So why whisper it? To imitate the monks of old? I am old, but not that old; I am not a monk.<br />Mass in Latin, following an outdated ritual, is an insult to 21st century Catholics, the Pope's permission notwithstanding. Oh, by the way, I understand Latin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
