**So, when my parish institutes "handwashing" on Holy Thursday
in place of the washing of the feet in the spirit of Vatican II, as one of my parishes truly did, I should rejoice that the Church is ever changing?**

That's not what I said. You are spinning here.

Then what changes are you speaking of? So many of the changes in the liturgy were not authorized by the Vatican and its hard for the average Catholic to keep track of what is authorized and what is not. Even now there is a disagreement between the American bishops and the Vatican. The bishops said that we must stand to receive Communion or we are being disobedient. The Vatican counters with the statement that the faithful may kneel if they so desire and cannot be told that they are disobedient. All these changes keep the faithful in a state of confusion and the Holy Spirit is not the author of confusion.
