This is an excellent essay . It is a MUST read . The quote from Saint John Chrysostom's homily is most appropriate. I look forward to the rest in this series of articles. Well done!

Father Zuhlsdorf has a long post on an article taken from the magazine," Mass of the Ages, " written by Msgr. Ignacio Barreiro . The long "point by point" discussion is well worth reading. In short, what is allowed and what is proscribed now that the TLM is again freely available? [...] The strongest of them, and the one I have to ponder a while, is the argument that whoever wishes the principal also desires what is accessory . It seems to me that we can’t just leap to the assumption that all those old decrees and so forth from the Sacred Congregation of Rites are all revived with Summorum Pontificum or that canons in the old Code are still in force, for example obliging women to wear chapel veils, etc. True, true...

Father John gives us a full explanation in WDTPRS in an at length post . He summarizes the story as follows: In a way, the change to stabiliter and non vult strengthen the rights of lay people in this regard. I don’t really understand the ramifications of the juridical sounding habitualiter (a dreadful Latin word). Yes, you have that right. On one portion, at least, the Canon lawyers may be involved ... Update: This portion of his interpretation is very meaningful and comes near the end: In article 7, non potest ("cannot") is not non vult ("does not want"). There is a big difference between not wanting to do something and not being able to do something. We are all able to do things we would prefer not to do. So, if a priest is capable, if a bishop is capable, but does not want to do something for the requests of lay people, the matter goes to Rome. In other words, if the cleric is capable, and the means are there, there is even less excuse not to rec...

New Catholic of RORATE CAELI points out that Gianni Cardinale in " Avvenire " publishes the story today that the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum has been finally published in the official gazette of the Holy See, the Acta Apostolicae Sedis (dated September 7, 2007). Here are some pointed changes: A subtitle was given to the motu proprio: « De uso extraordinario antiquae formae Ritus Romani » ("On the extraordinary use of the ancient form of the Roman Rite"); In article 1, the word «conditiones» was replaced with the more correct form «condiciones» , with no change in meaning ("conditions"); In article 3, the word «plerumque» was replaced with «habitualiter» (our translation remains "habitually"); In article 5, § 1, «continenter» was replaced with «stabiliter» , avoiding the notion that the group of faithful would have to be continuous in a certain parish - it only has to exist in a stable, but not necessarily in a permanent and continuo...
