My questions are regarding the Mass:

1. Do they realize the damage that has been done by changing the focus of the Mass to a psycho-social feel-good rock concert instead of what it should be ---the adoration and worship of our reason for being there-- Christ who died for us

2. Do they understand that a direct consequence of #1 is the lack of honor, respect,reverence and awe during the Consecration--including by THE PRIEST HIMSELF--, and especially right before Communion when the priest holds up the Body of Christ.

3. Do they understand the importance of Eucharistic Adoration? (My priest will only let us have it if we build a nice big new church with an adoration chapel!)

I'll expand on your point

Do they realize that the people will feel more loved and included when they truly realize that God sent His own beloved Son and that He died for them and that He gives His Body and Blood to sustain us. This is the Truth that makes you feel special not shaking hands and saying "Peace" or holding hands through the Lord's Prayer. Jesus' Sacrifice is more than enough affirmation of how important we are.
