That’s a good thing.
As a non-Catholic, I have to say that the Catholic Mass is a beautiful and moving experience, especially in Latin. If my own faith had something similar I might go back to church.

It’s a shame my wife’s Uncle Leo isn’t around to see this happening. What he saw happening in his Church during the last 40 years of his life broke his heart.

The author has problems with math. The TLM is not 1,600 years old and it's not from the "first millennium."
Other than exaggerated antiquity of the TLM, the article was good. I am happy to see our Latin brothers and sisters being able toe xperience what the Estern churches experience every Sunday.
Hopefully, this will not be just a fad.

The 1,600-year-old Mass isn't used much today
Holy bells and smells! A secular newspaper claims the TLM as "the Mass of All Ages"!
Kosta, this Mass is a version of the Roman Mass, which does have a pedigree going back to that time. Pope Pius V was no fool and no revolutionary, he did little more but codify and promulgate the Mass it was said in Rome in his time.

How unfortunate, such return in the direction of mysticism, obscurancy, and eclipsing of the relationship between God and each individual He died for, to directly relate with.

Question:
Would either you or one of the Catholics in this thread explain the significance of a Latin mass and why it’s considered important in the Catholic faith? Note: I’m not being critical or condescending, I’m just curious about this. Thanks.

When the Latin Mass went out the door, together with the statues and they rolled in the guitars and said I had to shake hands with everyone around me, I walked out the door. It was no longer a quiet, respectful place to be on Sunday. It was a floor show with the Mass being the least of the show.
