True, the outside over the years will fade slightly with regular use, but it is still the best quality missal. The gold on the pages, the page quality, the binding, all around it is superb in its construction and durability.
I recommend avoiding Amazon whenever possible. The money does not go to a good end. Buy either direct from Angelus or from PrayingLatin.com as the poster above recommended.
What abuses?
No, I do not. That is the reason I asked him. I would prefer his answer. Others may second guess what he means but be wrong.
You can look them up. They are legion. Let’s keep this thread on topic.
Could you please tell me where.
I am not trying to derail the thread. An unsupported assertion was made. It is fair to ask about that. I would describe the responses I’ve received to that to be obfuscation and a disregard for the rules of logic. I believe, therefore, I am entitled to draw a certain conclusion from not having my question answered.
Are you not familiar with liturgical abuse, unable to find the answers after googling, or are you baiting? There are so many that it would require many threads to discuss, which is why googling was recommended.
That we want to keep thread on topic and not get flagged for removal yes. But if you have a serious question on what is liturgical abuse and what are the most common or what all of them are, you could always start a thread with exactly that question. But googling and finding more credible sources than just opinions of CA Forum posters would be my recommendation on that one at least as a starting point. Hope that helps. Pax.
If you have not already researched, then I would strongly suggest doing so. It is very prevalent. If you have already then yes, best us just move on. Pax.
Well, we are getting off topic, but they are “ordinarily” confined to the “ordinary” form.
One could search the globe to try to find them in other rites, and it would be very difficult to find. I am not aware of any diocese at least in the US that does not have arguably at least some form of abuse. We could say so much more, but how about we agree to call it here, and save it for another thread.You see, here’s my problem. This is a claim regularly levelled but I never see any evidence.
That may be true but would’ve been so very easily resolved if the person to whom I posed my original question had explained what it was they meant. Instead others have claimed to know. There will be no more getting off the topic on my part because I am bowing out of this thread.
Google it. You’ll see the examples. Put simply any deviations from the rubrics are an abuse. Other novel practices were introduced through lies and abuses. It’s all documented. You just have to read up on it. As pope Benedict himself explained, any liturgy done in a banal or irrevent manner is itself a form of serious abuse. But again, we are off topic.
God bless your further examination and yours and my continued growth in holiness especially during this difficult time we have without the sacraments.
