Judaism is a liturgical faith. Your ignorance is amazing. Your anger is fascinating.
oh, right, I started to and had a series of computer keyboard hassles . . . ahhhh
I realize my pontifcations seem to chronically fall short of the registration I might grandiosely hope for on a variety of intellects.
And I recognize that by many traditions within Israelite culture, God chose Hebrew as a sacred language etc. etc. etc.

UHHHHHH, Perhaps you could point out to me . . .
WHERE
In the Sermon on The Mount did Christ display HIS preference for liturgical anything?
Or maybe it was with the woman caught in adultery?
Perhaps in Gethsemene?
Maybe walking on Gallilee?
Maybe sleeping in the boat?
Oh, I knowmaking water into wine. Wellll, maybe not. Go fill some water jars is hardly very LITURGICAL.
Perhaps with the woman at the well? Yeah, I know, youve had 5 husbands. Naw. Thats not very LITURGICAL either.
On the road to Emmaus? Naw, He was just reviewing some prophecies about Himself. Hardly very LITURGICAL.
Oh, when He told Peter to cast their nets on the other side of the boat? Naw, thats not very LITURGICAL either.
AHHHHH! ON THE MOUNT OF TRANSFIGURATION! Naw. That was DADDY and HE seemed to be a bit peeved.
Maybe He was LITURGICAL when they were hiding in Egypt and he was playing cowboys and camels with the locals. Naw, thats not very logical.
Come to think of it . . . I dont think CHRIST was LITURGICAL in Hebrew or Aramaic. If anything, He evidenced an AVOIDANCE of such things.
Now, THE PHARISEESI could imagine them being
VERY
LITURGICAL
Even attending to their toilets . . . or pretending to be.
So, are you saying that you believe that the RC &/or Orthy hierarchies are proudly in the tradition of the LITURGICAL PHARISEES?
That I could believe.
