The Novus Ordo mass is the one recognized by the Vatican, along with the Indult Tridentine Rite. Nothing will change this ... nothing!

Well it's nice to know that someone is still infallible now that the pope is kissing the Koran. "NYer has spoken, the case is closed." And there's nothing like bold-face type to answer an argument conclusively. Having seen you state in bold-faced type that it's hopeless, I was ready to give up all hope that the Church will return to the true Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. But then I decided I'd wait until I see it in ALL CAPS. Then I'll be certain that the case is closed.

The TRUE Holy Sacrifice of the Mass takes place daily, in every corner of the globe. If you are referring to the Indult Tridentine Rite, then that too is said daily, around the world.

If, however, you expect that one day, the Vatican will suddenly announce they they erred in adopting the NO Mass, then you are sadly mistaken. The NO mass, as radical as it may seem to you, is here to stay. The church gives catholics two choices - the Novus Ordo mass or the Indult Tridentine Rite. If there is no Indult mass in your community, you should address this with your bishop.

Don't get me wrong, I am not defending the NO mass. That mass however addresses some of the errors that made their way into the Latin mass. (these have already beendiscussed here).
