I am tired of begging for a Mass that is rightfully mine and not the bishop's. I get my mass where I can find it with so called schismatics or not

Interesting. I didn't know the Mass was yours. I was taught the Mass is the action of Jesus. Every Mass. Every single Mass since the Last Supper. Every single Mass whether said in Greek, Latin, Polish, English.

Do you imagine Mass said in Latin is holier? Do you imagine Mass said in vernacular is not holy?

The Mass is not about me. The Mass is not about you. The Mass is not about Latin. The Mass is about Jesus; and us offering our lives in union with him. He is both priest and victim.

Is our offering our lives at Mass along with His perfect Sacrifice an offering of schism, of resistance to the Bishop, of self-righteousness, of self will?

Then why was the Mass changed in the late 60's?
