Dedication Mass for New Cathedral on EWTN?
Question from Matthew Dana on 08-28-2002:
How come the dedication Mass for the new Our Lady of the Angeles Cathedral in Los Angeles is not going to be broadcast on EWTN?
This is the first cathedral to be opened in 26 years within the USA. It is the cathedral of BY FAR the largest archdiocese in the USA. It's also likely the most expensive ever built in the USA with the possible exception of the National Shrine in DC.
I think it would have been most edifying and appropriate for EWTN to broadcast this momentus moment throughout the world. What happened?

We've not been asked.
I noticed that in your superlatives "the most beautiful" was missing. It seems to be missing from most articles on the subject. In fact, a recent article in the LA Times called it ugly. I would have used a superlative myself.
I wonder why?

Donovan is a sharp guy and he gets the message across subtlety. It's too bad Hand doesn't follow his lead. In becoming advocates for the actions of these people, he appears to be and is acting as an enabler. Not a wise move when “these people” are lefties.
btw: thanks for those directions on the other thread regarding kneelers at the Cathedral.
