Excellent. About time. Everyone knows that it’s the wording for these prayers that are hands down the number one issue facing the church.
Second most important issue should be whether to stand or kneel during the prayer, hold hands or not hold hands, and of course if we need to raise our arms earlier.
“Second most important issue should be whether to stand or kneel during the prayer, hold hands or not hold hands, and of course if we need to raise our arms earlier.”
Just wait for the Papal Bull “Hokeus Pokeus”, where his holiness will explain the proper time to put one in foot, then take it out, then shake it all about.
You’ve nailed it. Massive amounts of effort going into precisely the WRONG issues.
For over 2000 years Christians have been praying “lead us not into temptation” and virtually NONE of them ever believed that it was saying God was the one who led us into temptation.
It’s a solution in search of a problem. Pope Francis is obviously inflicted with just massive, massive amounts of ego if he is this driven to put his own imprint on The Lord’s Prayer.
