i meant falling..
Mrs P.,
I presume you mean over the TLM. At the moment I think only a small minority want it but I do not think anything is lost by generosity.
If there are divisions we have to heal them, I think that is what being a Christian is about, but we should be terrified of being for John xxiii or Paul vi, we have to all be for Christ!
I had to return the compliment, Father...
I don't see that there is any need for a "division" to be created - unless people keep harping on about how "divisive" this is.
I go to both forms. I recognise that there is only one Latin Rite (as Pope Benedict said.) I am delighted that I have the choice (according to my mood) of which form I attend... but I believe that it is only fair and just that the options should be available.
Before the Motu Proprio came out, most people had no choice: it was the Ordinary Form like it or lump it. Funny how the liberal types were liberal about everything except liberalising the form of Mass...
BTW, Father, I liked your answers!
