Vatican II on tradition and youth...

"Although the young are naturally attracted to new things, they should exercise an intelligent regard for worthwhile traditions."

-Vatican Council II: Decree on the Apostolate of the Laity, 12.

I am 39, I love the Latin Mass, ironically here in Miami there is but 1 church far from my house that performs it.

I do however watch it on EWTN, Catholic Network.

BTW, I am trying to go to Rome this summer, as I have these miles from American Airlines that I must use or lose, if I do I will contract your services for tours!

Take care...

This post is humorous to me because it makes me think of young people who are attracted to the NEWLY accessible and popular Extraordinary Form which of course is also a bulwark of tradition. I feel very Vatican II!

(I am a 32 y/o priest and I offer the E.F.)
