Given the volume of discussion on this topic, I simply had to go in search of an acceptable explanation. Do click on the link to the GIRM. Practically every word in the documentation is a link to a descriptive.

How many of have actually read the GIRM, much less the Catechism or the Bible, in its entirety. Here we sit, day in and day out, haggling over the impact of change when, it turns out, the change is nothing more than a step closer to how the mass was intended to be said, by our Lord Himself. When I get the time, I intend to go through the entire documentation.

Hope all is well with you and the family.
