Ok. I removed my previous post (about a "rogue priest") because it was uncharitable, and while it felt great at first, I realized it was wrong. And I'm sorry. I know the priest in question is a missionary priest and has given his life in sacrifice for the poorest of the poor, and is probably very holy. I cannot detract his priesthood based on a brief encounter. To speak irreverently of a minister of the Church is against the First Commandment.
I love the liturgy. St. Padre Pio said, "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do so without the Holy Mass." I pray that the liturgy is celebrated everywhere with the reverence it deserves, and that adherence to its norms as laid out by the Church (which is the Body of Christ, and His mouthpiece) in her wisdom is observed perfectly in every place, and in every heart.
God bless . . .
