The vernacular may be used, communion in the hand may be used (shudder) and the altar may be versus populum (shudder again).

Our personal preferences don't trump what's allowed by Holy Mother Church.

Now what the OF DOES need changed:

*More accurate translations.
*Genuflecting during the creed at the moment of incarnation.
*If you're going to receive on the hand, atleast do it reverently and solemnly. Remember to genuflect as the person infront of you receives.
*No hand holding in the Our Father.
*Have a crucifix on the Altar
*don't hide the tabernacle
*have properly sized hosts
*don't wear vestments that look like a 6 year old made them, even if you think it's "cute".

Also I would like to see all the options cut out, like just recite the penetential rite instead of substituting it with the priests own creation (which the rubrics allow).

But the CORRECT way to celebrate the OF is "say(ing) the black, do the red" as Fr. Z says. You can say you'd prefer a Mass in Latin, ad orientem with communion on the tongue. Sure, I would too. But you can't say that it's the CORRECT way.[/quote]

I never said the vernacular couldn't be used. I just said that it shouldn't. And that is my opinion. In fact, everything I say is my opinion, believe it or not.

Don't worry. Your presence on the thread, no matter how serious the topic, makes it lame instantly.

[quote name='Resurrexi' post='1857315' date='May 4 2009, 02:55 AM']Is that one of those crappy songs they sing in those churches where the ordinary form is said contrary to the way it it should be (THE WAY THE ORDINARY FORM SHOULD BE SAID, BTW, IS AD ORIENTEM, ALL IN LATIN, WITH [b]NO[/b] COMMUNION IN THE HAND, AND WITH [b]NO[/b] EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS)[/quote]
Note to self:
Songs by Haugen, Haas, and Co. cause Shmoes to revert to some sort of primal radtrad state of consciousness and have spontaneous PTSD-like rants/flashbacks.

Interesting. This could be used to my advantage.

ohhh ahaha

The word "correct" implies that any other way is incorrect.
Which is what my point was. You should be more careful with word selection when expressing your opinion

I have to look through haugen and haas and joncas masses for a research paper. O.o

I think I am going to need therapy when this is done.
