For everyone annoyed at traditional Roman Catholic postings on this page: Sorry! I can understand where you are coming from. However, please keep in mind that the past 40 years have been extremely difficult on Catholics who believe everything the Church teaches, and who also love the traditional liturgy *because* it expresses those teachings. This is true even for those of us who accept the Novus Ordo as valid, holy, and not intrinsically damaging to the Faith. As Catholics, we cannot leave the Church, so those of us stuck at parishes which do not offer the TLM and which offer the Novus Ordo in a manner not in keeping with, you know, the way its *supposed* to be celebrated, are currently on their faith journey unable to adequately express their faith during the Mass. Seeing how important the Mass is in Catholicism, that is kind of a big deal. Here is an example of what some Catholics have to put up with: firstthings/web-exclusives/2014/12/what-clericalism-looks-like So I ask for your patience and for your prayers, and for at least a bit of empathy.
