A modern-day missalette from my local parish.
The inside cover of the modern missalette. Charming.

PULLLLEEEEZE!!!!!!!! I took a look, and I was inspired by the Misalette. I was not inspired, but horrified to think of all those bleeding and gutted seals, their severed voiceboxes still shrieking in pain. Notice also the front cover of the old misal says "Explained" under the title. Meanwhile, the misalette needs no explanation, for it is inspiration, and the spirit(?) moves you where it wills.
Oh yeah. I don't neccesarily prefer the rite, but your reasoning makes sense to my mind.
I like Tridentine Masses because of all the cute boys who go to them. Cute boys, praying, Latin...how can you go wrong?
I like it when opium gets in the incense.
Just kidding.
Veritatem perhibet artum.
*Sings* Come smoke a little herb with me, yeah come smoke a little herb with me...
Perhaps your next post, Geoff, should convince us to all become Rastafarians.
I meant to say: veritatem perhibet ars. That's more like it!
