> Celebrate it in Latin on occasion, but Catholics in America are not demanding a return to a Latin liturgy.<

7 years ago my family was not demanding the Latin Mass and then we discovered a Church which Celebrates the Latin Novus Ordo AND we kneel at the alter rail to recieve the Eucharist by intinction (no hands allowed). WOW! is all this post Vatican II Catholic can say. What ever posessed the Church to abandon Latin, alter rails and reverence for the Eucharist? People don't demand it because they have no clue what they are missing.

You equate Latin liturgies with "reverence for the Eucharist." Most of us who love the Novus Ordo also have a love for the Eucharist.

As I said, those who love Latin should be granted the celebration of the Novus Ordo or the Tridentine Liturgy in Latin.

In my parish, you'd be lucky to draw 20 people.
