I do not see the Latin as the problem facing the church or the Mass itself. What is- is a complete disregard for the liturgy Latin or not- altar girls, t-shirts and shorts for Mass- clapping during music- "feel good" homilie- and the worst is those parishoners who decide to arrive during the consecration- and then after receiving the bread/wine head straight for the door and not the pew.

That is part of the wider problem. We need to have mercy on these people and preach to them that God isn't a burden to fulfill every Sunday. We need to thank Him and praise Him for creating us and for bestowing so many graces on us. The lesson of "The Passion" is that His Only Begotten Son DIED for us. We are not worthy of such gifts.
