Nope! The lack of kneelers in your church is the equavilent of the Broken Window Theory of policing cities. Get rid of the gorgeous Latin mass and before you know it, bored and angry nuns in sneakers are advocating for abortion and female priests. Think I’m wrong? Check the timeline from the 50s through the 70s.

You do not mind the changes because you do not know what came before.

Jesus never spoke Latin, so why should I care about that? I like understanding what is being said. I do believe Latin masses should be available for those who appreciate them, though. I love my church...yes, it has evolved over the centuries, but nothing stays the same. We didn’t even have masses when Jesus walked among us. He worshiped and taught in a Synagogue. The only important thing is that we are worshiping Jesus and have a relationship with him. The rest is just window dressing.
