It’s nobody’s fault that Latin is a dead language. But to hear someone like you talk it should be alive on everyone’s tongue so that we can all got to Mass and read the Bible in Latin.
Not quite dead if a few words are added to the Latin vocabulary now and then.

But the grammar, endings and inflections are just the way Cicero et al codified them and the Church Christianized them, adding words like “gratia” as “grace” and changing “oratio” to “prayer” among other things.
