I am still extremely angry about the secrecy and deception that caused the changeover from the Latin Mass to the New Order in 1969. I was not told how it happened, that one man, Annibale Bugnini, lied to Paul VI and pushed through the changes. See the link to Mass of the Ages under the More Tab.
No one was told, and keeping information secret is lying. Lying to a young person (I was 17 at the time) is, perhaps, the worst type because one is lying to innocence, and like Luther, this man must be in Hell for the pain and suffering millions suffered.
One can use anger and defiance to change one’s own life: 1) give up a vice, 2) make a stronger commitment, 3) stop trying to please people, or 4) gain confidence. I have done all four. Please pray for me that I not backtrack.
Be yourself. Don’t do what is forced upon you, because what is forced, whatever it might be, is invalid.
What might be small to you was big to me. Written in about five minutes, this short statement was 54 years in the making.
