>>>If the Novus Ordo is left in place, I would, at minimum, want to see a smattering of Latin hymns and Gregorian chant back at Mass.

I suspect many parishes will go in this direction over time, but you need sympathetic Bishops. In Latin the Novus Ordo is much more doctrinally sound then in the ICEL translation, and those parishes that do it in Latin tend to use the Latin hymes and the chants. We have one up here we go to from time to time, and we also have an Indult we go to a bit more frequently.

The thing that I like the best is kneeling for the Eucharist.

I'd keep the modern Mass at our church and never complain again if they could just put the altar kneelers back in for communion. That is so huge. I'm starting to think that there was/is some kind of conspiracy to chip away at the real meaning of the Eucharist. Ripping out the altar rails was just another way to "normalize" receiving Jesus. (tin foil hat donned)

Else how is it that only 30% of Catholics believe in the Real Presence?
