What good is Scripture, or preaching if you can't understand it?

Have you ever actually been to a Latin Mass? The preaching is in the local language, and the readings -- which, like every other part of the Mass, are available to anyone in English in hand missals which cost ~ $100 -- are usually sung in Latin and then recited in English.

Besides, 85% of the Mass is either (a) straightup quoted from Scripture or (b) not changeable from one day to the next. Once you learn it, you know it.

The whole "oh, it's hidden, it's secret, it's bondage" line of argument is really ridiculous.

No it isn't...The important thing is God said, 'don't do it'...End of story... And the scriptures tell you why you shouldn't do it...Do any of you ever read it???

Thank-you also for letting me know about in brief what really goes on in a Latin Mass.
