elizabeth09 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Some people say that the Latin mass is boring. What do you say about the Latin mass? Which one do you like? English or Latin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resurrexi Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I go to the extraordinary form (1962 Missal) every week and love it. I also like the ordinary form (2002 Missal) in Latin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightofChrist Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 To say the Latin Mass is 'boring' is to disparage the Mass of our ancestors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HisChildForever Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I have never been to Mass in Latin - extraordinary or ordinary. I guess some people have their preferences, but the Eucharist is the Eucharist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kafka Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I attended a Latin Mass for five years. I didnt find it boring at all. What I hope someday might happen is that the the basic form and rubrics (perhaps with some additions and modifications) of the Latin Mass would be said in English.

I completely understand the importance of Latin Mass, but those that believe it is the end all be all are misguided. Jesus didn't have the Last Supper extraordinary style. As you said Truth is truth, and Jesus is truly present in the Most Blessed Sacrament whether it is spoken in Latin or English. I have been to both Latin (High and Low) and some other "masses" (that I had to go again just to make sure I felt comfortable fulfilling Sunday Mass).

Resurrexi Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) Not exactly. It's a [i]very [/i]Catholicized version of the Book of Common Prayer. So much so that it hardly resembles the original. Edited March 2, 2009 by Resurrexi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
