It is true that Latin excludes some abuses and avoids problems with translations, but the principle point is that it liturgical Latin is a sacred language and its use marks out the sacred time of worship.

The EF is beautiful and I love the reverence shown to our Lord which is often lacking (not always) in the OF. However what is the point to the readings being in Latin as they are reread in English (vernacular) if they are not for instruction but for worship then they should not even be reread? If they are for both proposes then why can't it be left in the vernacular as GOD can be worshiped in any language. After seeing the abuses in many OF masses I get why the rest of the mass is in the original latin. Its the readings I am questioning. thank you Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10647658162435238023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30490922.post-18516744656300902622010-02-22T20:35:55.477+00:002010-02-22T20:35:55.477+00:00Hi Joseph..you going to do a post re the CES??Hi Joseph..you going to do a post re the CES??Jackie Parkes MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16693505024823229152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30490922.post-6677607947177419442010-02-21T00:41:36.000+00:002010-02-21T00:41:36.000+00:00Good points, Mr. Shaw.
