"Fit's in well for you doesn't it. According to your reasoning, age absolutely makes an article irrelevant. Phew!!!"

What is the reason for the ' in the word fits?

No, according to journalistic standards and "newsworthiness," an article or topic written in 1975 is not "newsworthy."

But then again, with an SSPX adherent worldview, everything stopped around 1959; even if it really wasn't part of Catholic Tradition or tradition.

In any event, perhaps with you, you don't even recognize Vatican I, based upon your moniker.

Let me let you in on something, as one who works with journalists: 1975 isn't news.

Good article though!!!

the apostrophe was me typing too fast. And I do accept Vatican I. And how can you say that the SSPX worldview claims that everything stopped in 1959, when they use the 1962 missal? hmmmm..... fallacious statement?

You are right, of course. Today, there is little sense of history unless it can be massaged to justify current thinking and actions. For example, anything before JPII is dull and deficient if it takes the spotlight off him, forever the actor. Tradition has to be continually reinterpreted to prevent it becoming the Church again. What matters is today .... or maybe the values of tomorrow.

1996 isn't news, either, Mr. Journalist.
