It would seem to me that as long as the Latin is kept in a vault somewhere and used as a reference to make changes in the English Mass, then the English Mass will always conform to the original meaning of the Mass. Would that this were true. Those who produced the present English-language texts for the Mass did a horribly unfaithful job of translating the Latin.

Dave, I'm confused. I had twelve years of teaching at Catholic schools. I learned the Mass thoroughly and haven't noticed any mistakes in the English Mass.
Would you be good enough to point them out to me? I would appreciate it.
