In Tridentine Denial

The Old Mass isn't an issue, Arinze claims. Boy, is he in denial! Or perhaps just totally out of touch. The Old Mass is precisely where it's at, as they say. It is the touchstone. In the classic liturgy we see all we had, and have lost; we rediscover who we truly are, as nowhere else. Why has none of the Synodal fathers mentioned it? Too shy, intimidated perhaps? No, I return to the thought that they are simply out of touch. But never mind. We can wait. Day by day more people, more young people, are discovering the inheritance of which the silly 60s liberals have deprived us, and day by day we love it more. Benedict, if you read blogs, or if your minions do, we beg you: give us the freedom to celebrate the ancient rite where and when we will!
