Since there really is nothing new here I'm hoping that this document is as Sartorius says, Rome saying "enough is enough."

If nothing else it gives traditonalists renewed vigor to confront liberal Priests and Bishops. In fact the document even calls for it.

I'm reminded of a brazenly open liberal parish Priest I once knew. I actually cared for this man, almost as a brother, that's how charismatic he was. But I also knew him for what he was, a man who would push the envelope in proving how much he could get away with.

Once during Holy Week he had a Parishioner bake up a batch of bread that he announced from the ambo was leavened, so be careful with the crumbs, and that we would be using it for the whole week.

I refused Communion that day, and after Mass had words with the baker. He informed Fr. what I had to say, so at the next Mass the regular Host was offered as a choice. I have never seen a liberal Priest be that concilliatory - it must have been a weak moment, or he was afraid of the consequences. It is totally illicit for someone to make Hosts without the express written permission and supervision of the Bishop. I think Fr. was afraid I would tell on him.

I only tell this story to show that the person in the pew does have some power, and that this document should give us a little more lerverage, at least for a little while, until it dies a natural death like Sacrosantum Concillium - then it will be business as usual.

Agree with you here. Especially get this document to your liturgy committees, priests, associate pastors; and pastoral councils! We can make the changes happen!
