A ‘Great Principle’ betrayed and belittled?

We carry reports of the bishops’ conference in the U.S. approving liturgical texts according the the no longer approved ‘Liturgiam authenticam’ and the bishops’ conference of England & Wales refusing to review the ‘new missal’ and seeming to again surrender their authority in such matters to the Congregation for the Discipline of the Sacraments and Divine Worship.
In the context of these reports Mattie Long wonders “With the New Zealand conference of bishops being the only one so far that seems willing to grasp the nettle of beginning to do something to rectify the absolute mess that is the ‘new Missal’, we can only wonder what is preventing others from taking their courage in their hands and responding to the authority and challenge that is presented them in the’ “Great Principle” of Francis.”
