Most of the liturgical problems we see nowadays are obvious because they're visual, like altar girls, or Communion in the hand, or the orientation of the altar. But there are subtle changes that sometimes go unnoticed. They're not as much about what you see in the liturgy as what you hear. The scriptural texts used in the liturgy were changed in the 1960s, and these changes include abandoning the ancient translation Christ Himself used and using the language of the Roman Empire rather than that of the Church.
Wish he would have given examples; was it just changing words form one language (Greek) to another (Latin)? AND then into English?
Or did it change the meaning of words from concise to debatable? Is this where 'interchangeable' really started? 'God's Children' became.....'All men and all women'???
1965 was rife with coming up with 'new' ways of looking at life. Was anthing 'changed' in the 60s really anything more than a fad? A social construct?
Are the 'new' social issues using the 'interchangeable' imaginings of the Vatican? From gender to Religions, from laws to everyone's 'rights'??
The Greek translation doesn't seem to be affected by societal 'norms' as the Vatican is........correct me if I'm wrong.
You betcha. Thanks again for the clarity.
