From the mystical climate of Catholic Europe...

Ever invite someone (i.e. a Catholic) to a Mass in Latin? They will look at you like you just asked them to spend the night in a haunted house! This is a weakness underlying the American Catholic culture of today. A sad flaw of my generation is the establishment of a veritable cult of continuing change (almost everybody has come to expect all things to just keep on changing without end). We must be "patient in tribulation" as Saint Paul counseled (Romans 12:12).
