Novus Quodlibet: The New Whatever Liturgy

. . .I have attended the Novus Ordo Mass all my life.  I do not believe it was necessarily a mistake to have the Mass translated into the vernacular so that people could more readily understand the words & the action.  Yet I have great sympathy for people who flock to, or flee to, the traditional rite, & have wondered why, if language alone were the point, that old rite had not simply been translated & otherwise left as it was. . .
