I would think that it matters very much? Why?

Great article.

i didn't think it was that great. its very anti N.O. and doesn't do a very good job of specifiying that the "Form" problem isn't within the N.O. Mass itself, but in an improper celebration there of.

although i do agree about how the priest should be offering the sacrifice of the EUcharist to God and not to us, and thus needs to turn round again!

I think they were talking more about how the Novus Ordo is currently celebrated, especially in America, rather than how it is supposed to be celebrated. Perhaps they should have clearified that better, but that's what I assume they were talking about.
