Being a cradle Catholic, I have always been aware of the Dominican order, but I assumed you followed the Latin Rite mass. But then, all the religious in my family have always been Franciscans!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04072419767209518735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681724653679910870.post-87636576604766038432008-11-06T04:45:00.000-08:002008-11-06T04:45:00.000-08:00As I suggested in the post, sometimes (not all the...As I suggested in the post, sometimes (not all the time but sometimes) the "Dominican way" itself is to accommodate to Roman practice, something that became pastorally useful from the time we started running parishes in the modern period.<BR/><BR/>Complaints around Dominican particularity were common before the Council, perhaps even more so than today.Fr.

I like the variety of rites, as long as they are reverent, beautiful, dignified, and approved by Church authority. <BR/><BR/>I can understand why some might be suspicious of unknown differences in this post-1970 Catholic Church, but people should really inform themselves before jumping to conclusions.<BR/><BR/>Or, if someone knows the Dominican Rite is different but complains anyway because they think everything should be Roman... well, pay no attention to such people. Who do they think they are to tell the Dominicans how to celebrate Mass? The pope?<BR/><BR/>Please, my OP friends, preserve your venerable liturgy. Same goes for the Carmelites, and everyone else that celebrates a venerable and approved rite or variation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
