To: IGNATIUS
A Roman Catholic friend once told me he thought St.John's liturgy was also used in Western churches occasionally prior to Vatican II.Can you confirm this?

Ignatius,I'm sorry I missed your question from last year but I'm unable to confirm that St.John's liturgy was used prior to Vatican 11. I did read somewhere a few years back that Cardinal Ratinger wants to reform the Roman Rite to a more Byzantine rite liturgy. I don't know if it would be based on St.John's liturgy or not. I haven't seen anything more on it.But here's hoping!
