[Hieronymus]

A large chunk of the main-stream Latin Rite is ignorant and chauvinistic of anything that is not themselves. Even in the Hierarchy those who are cultured and knowledgable enough to appreciate breathing with more than one lung are a minority. And some seem incapable of breathing with both lungs, or are happy enough to follow those with that incapacity.

Sadly, I must agree. I think so much of it comes from generations of collective ignorance if not outright loathing our own Latin Rite patrimony. Until we appreciate what is ours, we can't appreciate what belongs to anyone else.
