I finally found another blogger out there who has articulated perfectly that sinking suspicion I've had as of late that Mass as I've come to know it is NOT Mass as God intends it. I have a secret longing that I must pursue - tomorrow I will go to the local monastery and attend my first ever latin Mass!!! I just want to experience it and see what happens...Against All Heresies: Why the Young Love the Oldputs this into words better than I can. Here's a snippet:
Why does the Latin Mass appeal to youth? Why isn’t it dying out? If it really is an anachronism why does it gain strength?First I believe it is because the youth do not like to be condescended to. They want challenge, sacrifice, idealism. They want to worship God and have become awfully tired of worshipping themselves and their friends. Being your own god is the quickest path to atheism I know.
