Liturgical language revised. . . again
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has made a number of adjustments to the language of the mass in order more faithfully to conform to the original Latin. This latest revision is thus a conservative revision. Reactions in the pews? Some people don't like it, while others think it no big deal. This raises at least two questions: First, will the Canadian Conference do the same? Second, will other denominations, e.g., Anglicans and Lutherans, who use the earlier and apparently less accurate translations produced by the International Commission on English in the Liturgy, follow the Catholic lead?
