VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - A decree by Pope Benedict allowing priests to say the old Latin Mass more frequently has drawn criticism within Catholic and Jewish ranks, with one Italian bishop saying he was "in mourning".Say what?...Pope Benedict XVI has cancelled the "reforms" VCII? ...I must have missed that in the motu proprio. Better go back and read it again...
. . .
"I can't fight back the tears. This is the saddest moment in my life as a man, priest and bishop," Luca Brandolini, a member of the liturgy commission of the Italian bishops' conference, told Rome daily La Repubblica in an interview on Sunday.
"It's a day of mourning, not just for me but for the many people who worked for the Second Vatican Council. A reform for which many people worked, with great sacrifice and only inspired by the desire to renew the Church, has now been cancelled."
Surely, there are a number of so-called "reforms" that need to be brought to a complete standstill and corrected...All in due time as we continue in prayer.
