On Liturgical Issues - June 17th, 2008 (WDTPRS)

Fr. Zuhlsdorf has finally had the opportunity to comment on the article written by John Allen who recalls the "play-by-play" of the vote of the USCCB on whether to accept the new translation of the Propers for the Seasons . He makes some rather interesting points that I had missed. Fr. Zuhlsdorf also has high praise for Bishop Seratelli of Paterson, NJ who has published something about translation on his Diocesan website . They are both very interesting reads.

Whispers in the Loggia: From the Plane

Rocco Palmo of Whispers in the Loggia has a really nice story about the trans-Atlantic flight and the "press conference" which took place . The National Catholic Reporter's, John Allen, has a full transcript which he has posted (link in the Whispers link). One comment made is of interest to readers in the Archdiocese of Baltimore: Benedict XVI: My trip has basically two objectives. The first is a visit to the church in America, in the United States, and naturally also the entire country. There’s a particular motive, which is that 200 years ago the Archdiocese of Baltimore was elevated as a metropolitan archdiocese, and at the same moment two or three other dioceses were created … Philadelphia, Boston, Louisville. It’s a great jubilee for the church in the United States. It’s a moment of reflection on the past, but also on the future, on how to respond to the great challenges of our time that will present themselves in the future. Read more here .

Top 10 neglected Vatican stories of 2007

Lest I forget this news story, Fr. Z., reports on the return of the TLM to Ave Maria University...finally ! The Mass will be said by Father Joseph Fessio. John Allen of National Catholic Reporter summarizes what he feels were the ten most neglected stories concerning the Vatican in 2007 . Here is a snippet: 4) A pope of hope : Despite his erstwhile reputation as an Augustinian pessimist, Benedict XVI struck two major blows for hope in 2007. In April, the International Theological Commission, acting on his recommendation, suggested that limbo (a destination for unbaptized babies in the afterlife) could be set aside in favor of hope for their salvation. In December, Benedict issued his encyclical Spe Salvi (“Saved by Hope”), offering a positive spin on eschatology. The Last Judgment, for example, is not a threat of damnation, but a promise that justice will eventually prevail in a world in which evil too often goes unchecked. 3) Redefining dialogue with Islam :
