That doesn't disturb my peace during the Liturgy as much as when people substitute "God" for male personal pronouns. I mean, cut the PC crap people!

Amen. I am blessedly free from such nonsense, except of course for the hymns which have been bowdlerized. The amusing thing is that "inclusive" language is as insulting to women as "affirmative action" is to minorities. If a woman can not look in a dictionary and see that "man" is an inclusive term in the English language, then she deserves all of the resentment she feels.

All of which is secondary. The point is that no one is to alter the texts used in the Mass without approval from Rome.

Perhaps the feminists aren't smart enough to understand the universal meaning of the word man.
