Weird

There was no chance of any munity. It was just the usual anti-Rome malcontents trying to stir it up. They haven't realised that things have changed since the Silly Sixties and the Church has moved on. Thank God!

Do you feel tempted to take your music planning in any new directions this year?

Personally, I don't want new directions. I'd be happy to see/hear people understanding and implementing the directions we already have in the liturgy documents.

I don't think I'm exaggerating too much when I say that some of you have deliberately been going out of your way, desperately trying to find (whip up?) negative comments about the new translation. Too bad. It's here to stay. Deal with it.
