Faith, Reason, and the New Mass Translation. (Large print, Paperback, Large type / large print edition)


In late 2011 the Catholic Church changed the Mass from the clear modern English of the Novus Ordo Mass to an obtuse literal translation from the Latin. By a long established theological principle known as "Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi" (As we pray so we believe) this change in the prayer of the Church also brought with it a change in the belief of the Church. Here in a series of "Faith and Reason" blogs author John C. Wilhelmsson, through the filter of his study of both theology and philosophy, shares his thoughts on the translation change and the effect it is having on Catholic belief. He also details the little known backstory of the new Mass. The strange combination of forces that brought it all about and just what their agenda might really have been. If you are wondering why the Mass has changed, or just wish to further reflect upon what that change means, "Faith, Reason, and the New Mass Translation" will be of great interest to you (Chaos To Order Publishing books are in easy to read large print).
