The Mass follows the same format that it did in the Early Church, the translations are of the same words. Especially now that we've got the 'pro multis' bit ironed out again.<br /><br />It's not paranoia, or superstition. Just ask any priest.

I'm using the idea here more in a superstitious sense. The idea being if things aren't repeated just exactly right, bad things happen. It's almost a form of superstition in which God is controlled by our words. <br /><br />That describes a very small god coupled with a very scared human.colkochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03432916690101599393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8383701632927065467.post-43575888225172251912012-04-23T13:06:16.393-06:002012-04-23T13:06:16.393-06:00The Pope promotes ritual magic?
