Masculine & Strong Catholic Priests (Credit: Catholic Candy) . . .our Catholic identity was devastated after the Council, particularly due to a loss of the sense of the transcendent in our worship & our church buildings. In well-intentioned attempts to undo of the damage, some have thought to appropriate elements of Eastern Christianity, which did not undergo such a dramatic loss of the transcendent. They started to “byzantinize” our Latin churches. . . No. We have our own Latin traditions which ought to be recovered. . . by Father John Zuhlsdorf,of Fr.
