APACT: 2021/08.18 - Vatican II And The English Mass Part 2 - Is the Novus Ordo The Product Of Sacrosanctum Concilium?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador of Nonsense) continue their discussion on one of the most prominent documents to have come out of Vatican II: Sacrosanctum Concilium (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy). Is the Novus Ordo the results of this directive? Did the new 'English' Mass at all achieve the goals set forth by Vatican II and this document? This podcast reviews paragraphs 6-21 of the document and discuss whether or not the Novus Ordo in any way conforms to the concepts described.

New York will stop investigating the murderer Cuomo when he resigns. Water shortage and drought declared in Arizona, Nevada,, and New Mexico. Supreme Court in Uganda allows pornography.
