The whole furor over the new translation of the Holy Mass is really without basis. The liberals are screaming that we’re rushing into reform (God loves irony), but they don’t even realize that “the most progressive among us is he who realizes we’re on the wrong path, turns around, and goes back from whence he came.” The new translation is simply addressing glaring errors in translation. That’s it!

For example:

Another example:

If you look at the French language Mass, it has retained much of the beauty and sophistication of Latin, even though it’s in the vernacular. Indeed, instead of keeping “amen,” the French say (and have said for centuries) “ainsi-soit-il.” Literally, this means, “thus it is,” or “thus let it be.” This goes back, all the way to the original meaning of “amen.”

Why is it that people oppose the new language of the Mass? Is it because it attempts to raise the liturgy from off the dung hill onto which so many leftists, communists, atheists, and nominal Catholics have cast it? Is it because we can’t bear to translate “fratres,” “brothers,” as it ought to be? It doesn’t mean, “brothers and sisters.” It means “brethren,” pure and simple.

Anyone who opposes the will of the English-speaking bishops regarding this translation is guilty of sedition against the Holy Catholic Church. It is the will of the bishops, plural, who almost unanimously passed this. For forty years, orthodox-minded Catholics have been subjugated by those who imposed political and gender-based agendas onto the Holy Mother Church. She has begun to shake these fetters of error off, and look at the filth that rains down with the shattered links of liberalism. Nothing but lies and a hatred of the Truth. The pope says “yes,” – that’s good enough for me.

“As for me and my house, we shall follow the Lord.”
