Bad taste is a menace to Catholic worship. We need to have more brutally honest assessments of what causes bad taste among church leaders in America. Mass is never supposed to be self-esteem therapy for the artistically challenged. As with the problems in Catholic higher education and diocesan administration, we don't need smarmy types taking cues from modern American culture. America needs an authentically Catholic Marshall Plan for Art, Music, Literature, and Film.

The cultists of bad taste need to be deprogrammed or sent out to pasture. No more charity or excuses for outrageous bad taste among the music ministry mafia.

Oh, so you don't enjoy singing along to "Canticle of the Sun" or one of the other flaky tunes with Betsy-guitar-playing-hippie at the forefront?? LOL!

The quick answer is to recruit musical Episcopalians.

Our music is the best, and the reason I have stuck with the church during its slow-motion collapse. See above.
