He is only asking the bishops to do what they should have done thirty years ago, which is to accomodate the feelings of the faithful. Unfortunately, the reforms were rammed down the throats of the faithful. As the pope has said, the people got the feeling that the divine liturgy was, after all, only the work of men. How many Catholics were led to abandon the Church by this radicalism? My guess is that many of those who turned to evangelicalism were seeking some rock to cling to and found it in the Bible only dogma.
