Shawn Tribe has an NLM post that the book by Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Dominus Est , dealing with the reception of Communion is about to be released . The book has endorsements by both Cardinal Arinze and Archbishop Malcolm Ranjith of the CDW.

Shawn Tribe of The New Liturgical Movement is providing a totally new slant to a story that has been surrounded by rumors (and some disappointment among those who greatly admire Archbishop Malcolm Ranjith). Tonight, he breaks the story that the sources that predicted moves are backing down (Fr. Zuhsdorf stated that the Italian story might be taken with a "grain of salt"). Apparently, Shawn is proving that to be true...for now at least. Read his piece !

Shawn Tribe of the New Liturgical Movement carries part of a fascinating interview from Petrus . The interview is with Chilean Cardinal Jorge Arturo Medina Estévez, Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments from 1998 to 2002. Here are two small snippets: Eminence, some inside of the Church continue to oppose the Motu Proprio 'Summorum Pontificum'… "Unfortunately it is true, but it is also necessary to remember that the Mass according to the rite of St. Pius V has never been abolished and though it is currently considered 'extraordinary', it has the same right to citizenship in the Church and the same dignity as the 'Novus Ordo' of Paul VI. It should be remembered that the bishops who were opposed to Motu Proprio of Benedict XVI are perfectly free to express their opinions civilly, but, ultimately, are required to be obedient and respect for the Pope, who is the only universal pastor of the Holy Roman Church...&q

This was a surprise to me, but here is the evidence to prove it....from the Congregation for Divine Worship of course .
