"Can you go to Mass and risk losing your faith?" :)

"Come Andare A Messa: E Non Perdere La Fede"

The author is Monsignore Nicola Bux!

Interviewed by Angela Ambrogetti.

"How to go to Mass without losing the faith."


Snippet from Angela Ambrogetti's article Bad Masses Lead to Weak Faith, in the April 2011 issue of Inside The Vatican magazine.


"Can you go to Mass and risk losing your faith?

"The challenge comes from Monsignor Nicola Bux who decided to call his latest book: How to go to Mass without losing the faith [Piemme 196 pages Euro 12,00].

"For now, the book has been published only in Italy, but there will certainly be editions in other languages soon, because the issue is hot.

"Fr. Bux's book has some powerful passages.

"It critiques the neglect of priests and the ignorance of the faithful; prayers of the laity which seem like mini - homilies; egalitarian corruption of the idea of Communion; political reduction of liturgy through the annulment of the difference between the celebrant and the people; and the liturgy becoming entertainment [i.e. St. MM's indoor paper - trash burning mitotes, or so - called New Age spiritualists rituals!] instead of listening to the mystery and thanksgiving..."

The good Father Nicola makes it clear that the liturgical reform that starts this year "...will take at least 25 years, an entire generation..." -- to carry out!

O.K.!

Fair enough, let's get going ..... :)

'Cause like Father Clay Hunt prophesied last night, both Brackettville's and Spofford's youth of today will play a vital role as the seasoned priests and youthful bishops of tomorrow! :)
