What’s the big deal about Latin? Peter spoke Aramaic, right?

[Romulus]

It’s not about archaeology. It’s about timelessness and universality.

If you grew up with the LM, nothing else seems "right". Later generations accept the current watered down church as what has always been. It isn't.

The church suffered at the hands of the liberals trying to make the it "more relevant" in much the same way American society suffered at the hands of theses same liberals trying to do the same thing there.

Just a couple of more examples that demonstrate how worthless liberalism truly is.

Yes, Peter did speak Aramaic but "when in Rome ..... ". Latin became the liturgical language of the Latin (Roman) Catholic Church.

Before he went to Rome, though, Peter served as Bishop of Antioch. To this day, the Consecration is still chanted in Aramaic in the Antiochene Catholic Churches - the Maronite, Chaldean and Syro-Malankara Catholic Churches. To hear those words chanted in Aramaic is like being at the Last Supper.
