For those who say, "yes" I say "take that!"

The title of this YouTube entry is Sandals and Fiddlebacks and besides the incredibly beautiful chant (I replayed the video just to hear it again) the utter humility of the Traditional Latin Mass is so well expressed in this brief clip. Shallow critics like to say that the glorious vestments, beautiful flower arrangements and vestments , alienate the poor and make the Holy Mass elitist.

Nonsense.

When Our Lord is offered the Sacrifice of the Mass nothing less than the best will do and that is an acknowledgement of humility on the part of the priest and the people.

For those of you who are noticing perhaps an over-reliance on YouTube, yes, well it is Spring and time to plant the garden and air out the linens and take care of the laying hens.
