These are interpretations of liturgical law, okay? You know, those things which govern what you ca or cannot sin g at mass?
Well, Thanks to these people, the apparent contradiction in two documents from Vatican II could be cleared up, as well as one in the General Istruction of the Roman Missal. The first is that Sacrosanctum Concilium says that Gregorian chant has the highest place in the liturgy, that it IS the music suitable for it, and that pride of place should be given to it's use before other types of music.
But then, it says that all other music is equal. This is what it really means. What do you know, it reinforces that point. It's a false translation of that whole phrase.
The second, is that the General Instruction of the Roman Missal and Sacrosanctum Concilium say that Gregorian chant has the highest place in the liturgy, that it IS the music suitable for it, and that pride of place should be given to it's use before other types of music.
But then, when it lists a lists of what music can be sung at mass, it lists three resources for singing the proper chants of the mass, which it has just said is the proper music to use, then says for the fourth what amounts to "Or any other old song you feel like using." Again, a false translation. This is what it really means.
So the contradictions are cleared up. Liturgical law is on our side again. The last deceptocon has been destroyed. The universe is at peace.
