Inculturation only counts when there's a culture which needs to be served;

Any blacks? You should have seen the Liturgy celebrating Martin Luther King Day in our parish last year: the Bishop presided, a Gospel choir from Our Mother of Mercy Parish (Black Parish), and lots of African garb and dancing.

We're the whitest parish in the Diocese.

<> Your post reminds me of when me and me bride were visiting Indianapolis. We went to a local parish - I forget the name - and we were the only whites there. Other than an extended Kiss of Peace period, there was little to differentiate twixt their Parish and ours in FL.<>

Well, you've been imposed upon.

We don't celebrate adulterers and fellow-travelers, although MLK did have some redeeming social values.

Further, the music must conform to Vatican directives--not to Bert Weakland's feeble mental musings.

Your Bishop ought to get a clue.
