...tired of the delaying tactics of a vocal if tiny minority of opponents...

Thanks for posting this. I have been starting to follow this development only in the past year or so. It is frankly, exciting to anticipate changes which bring us closer to the Latin wording.

English is a fairly good language for transmitting concepts, but it also can fall victim to abbreviations, truncations, and additions which can alter the context and meaning of words.

In one way, that’s an advantage as it can adjust to accommodate the expression of new ideas and concepts. For the liturgy, it’s too tempting for some to use the language to dilute the strength of the original text.

Apparently Stravinskas made it out of Omaha.
