I think the author's suggestion of wider use of the Tridentine Mass and reform of the Mass of Paul VI is dead on. I go to a church where the new Mass is celebrated in a reverent manner, we often sing or chant in Greek or Latin, and the priest regularly preaches on the importance of the Eucharist. No one who attends my parish can have any doubt that Our Lord is truly present body and blood, soul and divinity in the Blessed Sacrament. There is no good reason why every Novus Ordo parish cannot be like mine.
That's a lot like my parish. We have Eucharistic adoration, the priest talks about Jesus as our Eucharistic Lord often, pushes confession, especially at Advent and Lent (in the days before the Triduum and Christmas, for about 5 days, he keeps confessional hours for four hours a day as well as have special penance services, with a brief prayer time, and then it's off to see one of four or so priests for confession. We do the 40 hours the week before Easter.
His masses are reverent, he has homilies even at daily mass, and he's a good teacher.
It is possible. What makes it happen are good, believing, God-loving priests who believe what the church teaches.
And that's what we have to pray and work for, and encourage when we see it.
