Surely they must realise that it's a better translation of the original Latin text of the Novus Ordo?<br /><br />It's a concern to see that four of the Core Members are priests (one-ex) and a nun. Can't the Jesuits reign the Jesuit in? A number have higher degrees and have had "high-powered" jobs in the Church, one still employed at a diocesan and parish level.<br /><br />I don't know. Is this a concern?<br /><br />Just as well the bishops were "unable" to meet them.<br /><br />Why don't they become Protestants.<br /><br />Indeed, European Catholic. About that little "c". If they used a capital C for Church, goodness, they might have just ended up simply worshiping in the Church.Damask Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12903564104733536123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598228705498900088.post-26146410797279850262013-05-18T15:38:32.422+01:002013-05-18T15:38:32.422+01:00Viewing each of the "Core Members" cv on...Viewing each of the "Core Members" cv on their ACTA web-site explains all, indeed one is extra-ordinary!Sixupmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486627001579821658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598228705498900088.post-26494140940949463662013-05-17T19:04:18.648+01:002013-05-17T19:04:18.648+01:00See they are all meeting in an Anglican church hal...See they are all meeting in an Anglican church hall in Coppull. What appropriate and stimulating surroundings. Perhaps they should have asked Fr Mayne in St Oswald's Coppull if he could accommodate them....perhaps for an hour's Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament before their deliberations.<br /><br />Odd that they say the new translation was introduced with hardly any consultation with the bishops. The bishops were inundated with different possible versions of it for years. Granted the last minute changes by someone in Rome seem to have been imposed, but most of the process was highly consultative.Dominic MacCarthynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598228705498900088.post-28241696982551727962013-05-17T16:50:19.146+01:002013-05-17T16:50:19.146+01:00Would anyone like to speculate on the average age ...Would anyone like to speculate on the average age of this auguste gathering?

It's OUR Church! I have always understood that the Church was founded by Jesus Christ, the Son of God. It is HIS Church and we are blessed to be MEMBERS of HIS Church. <br />The appalling arrogance of people who wish to push Christ out of the way so that THEY can have their equal say just beggars belief. And what makes it laughable (wrong word, perhaps) is that these people have convinced themselves that they have a valid point of view that is more important, or at least as important, as the founder of their Church. Is it no wonder that so many people think that they are going straight to heaven? Do they expect to have an equal say in their judgement? Do they expect to have a sense of ownership of heaven? <br />Perhaps we should all be cultivating friendships with these people who are so important and powerful.<br />And these people are tolerated by parishes and dioceses. <br /><br />Arrogance Beyond Beliefnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598228705498900088.post-14801414904128639562013-05-16T23:55:20.463+01:002013-05-16T23:55:20.463+01:00This is sooo old hat, it's sooo crashingly bor...This is sooo old hat, it's sooo crashingly boring I nearly fell asleep.<br /><br />Patrick CannonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
