The modified Latin the Church developed was probably because they had found certain syllables and inflections were able to ease the mind or "soul" of those raised in certain European cultures (that being several of the languages are rooted in Latin). So if someone is spazzing out, the priest can come in and "exorcise a demon" to get them to stop. If it has the ability to help calm the spirit or mind, then it should be kept.
Other cultures manage to perform similar with their specific texts/inflections. Maybe there's a psychological aspect to language that humans evolved with that allows this to work

From my research there is actually some evidence that speaking prayers in Latin elicits similar effects as doing breathework (Pranayama) does. The words and their cadence can connect you with the divine. And this is all related to how you are breathing when reciting in Latin. The power of the human breathe is really fascinating to study. James Nestor wrote a book called Breath and it is a good introduction into the power of conscious breathing.
It's an attempt to stop losing numbers. I've enjoyed being blocked on Truth just by correcting Bible verses, and their meaning. That's English. Biblical illiteracy is awful. People banish demons in many ways.
But are they all the same Mass if they are all in different languages? The Latin Mass gives the Church a unifying feature that no matter where in the world you are you will hear the same.
Latin is almost a dead language, used primarily for interpreting historical texts and in scientific terminology. Having it as the primary language of the mass when no one speaks it is a bit of an issue.
I’m not Catholic but why is the Latin Mass harmful? Most of the masses I’ve been to have been in Spanish so the one Latin Mass I went to was a great experience and I could understand a few things. I don’t get why they would do away with it.
Right. The Catholic church is replacing their flock like whites are being replaced in America. Banning latin mass pisses off people they want to piss off -- conservatives. Who they would just assume leave unless they live in Africa.
It's about DEI optics. I just did a quick search and came across multiple articles trying to peddle DEI to Christian churches about the so-called benefits of adopting DEI. It's no different from what financially failing companies have been doing for the last decade or so as well.
One of the most telling signs that this is what's occurring is specifically when such businesses and organizations keep making odd PR obsessed choices that have absolutely zero practical and make almost no rational sense.
Like sadly, it only just recently dawned on me how a good majority of commercials and ads are in-fact NOT about selling the product to the consumer, but instead about making their company look more appealing to investors.
Which I'll admit, in some small ways, this would seem to make sense in business, but given how much advertising is regularly spammed everywhere we go, it's remarkably depressing, disgusting, and frankly insulting in a way, because of how much of a nuisance it is for consumers who are just trying to watch something or use a website.
In theory, it forbids the unnatural options as well.
Besides, if I were a straight man finding myself unable to resist temptation, I think I’d have an affair with a woman well before I’d try anything with a guy, even if the latter was fully acceptable.
The former, especially now when sex is everywhere. There's no 16yo boys growing up in the seminary and going straight into priesthood only discovering lust once they got there and not knowing what to do about it besides become a faggot.
You think the pope might be trying to use reverse psychology on us? Like, he's all "No more Latin! No more White priests! make all priests trans!" and then we go "Hey, fuck you! We're all going back to the roots! We're going full old school fire and brimstone!" and then he goes "Oh, no! Anything but that! (je je je)"
demons ban the language that can reveal them

Any church worried about numbers can simply stick to the local language. There is no attendance justification for banning it.
The Catholic church has everyone around the world focused on the same mass at the same time. That's a whole lot of focused energy.
But are they all the same Mass if they are all in different languages? The Latin Mass gives the Church a unifying feature that no matter where in the world you are you will hear the same.
Dude never heard of time zones.
They've decided the same topics is enough magic. The language isn't as important my more.
Latin is almost a dead language, used primarily for interpreting historical texts and in scientific terminology. Having it as the primary language of the mass when no one speaks it is a bit of an issue.
It's beautiful, but it's not useful
Wrong.
Coptic Egyptians still speak ancient Egyptian. Jews with Hebrew. Assyrians still speak Aramaic.
These languages survived and revived because they were used for liturgy.
The churches that were growing were the traditional latin ones with young families and 7 kids each.
The boomer guitar masses are dying.
Laughs in Anglican “mass If you think the Catholic Church is screwed, you should see the CoE, both high and low…
In a way, it's just being supplanted with a different state religion that's been pushed hard for a few years now.
My family members go to mega churches. They're growing faster.

It's not harmful. What it is, is traditional. Can't have that.

Its not as easily changed as the modern English language with all the newspeak commie shit.
If they want to update the Church, they should just LET PRIESTS BE MARRIED, so the priesthood stops attracting sexual invalids
Orthodoxy is that
"Sexual invalid" is a fun way to write "homosexual pedophile."
Does it attract them, though? Or does it cause [some of] them by forbidding the natural option and leading to alternative actions taken? 🤔
In theory, it forbids the unnatural options as well.

The first one. It's easy to hide being a chomo when have the excuse of not being married for religious reasons
Probably a bit of both.
Which would be leading people into temptation. A big no-no.
Young people returning to faith or discovering it are wanting traditional mass. The Vatican is once again going full retard.

Considering he's a Latin American marxist, no.
That settles it then. I am going to a Latin Mass.
