Less Kneeling and More Standing for Scottish Catholics at Mass

Scotland

Scottish Catholics will soon be told to stand during parts of the Mass where they have traditionally knelt. The instruction from the Bishops of Scotland, which has not yet been publicly announced, will come into effect at the beginning of Advent this year.

“Make no doubt about it, theses changes in posture are the revenge of trendy liturgists for the introduction of a new, more traditional, translation of the Mass which they really dislike,” said one Scottish priest to EWTN News after being briefed on the changes.

The priest asked to remain anonymous.

“These people don’t like kneeling during any part of the Mass and so have a particular distaste for those traditional, pious Scottish customs which for generations have seen us kneel during Holy Mass more than, say, the English do.”

" Let us kneel in front of the Altar,for He is God,our Lord!" - exhorted the Old Testsament;as you have had surely noticed the modernists had changed the call to " Let us bow..." Freedom of worship is basic human right. Nobody forces you to go with the flow and against your conscience. Dare to go against the stream ,After all we will be judged personally on how did we receive Him,the Living Word,the Eternal Word,Who does not change as today's fashions.

Thank you for posting this...because here in the US and most likely in many other countries, this same thing is occuring. Here in the States, there are pastors and the "Liturgical wreckovators" who have the faithful STANDING during the Consecration. It is quite sad indeed. And this is due to the disobedience of those who want to continue to makes changes as they see fit.
How sad for Our Dear Lord, that his people are being made to do this! Hopefully, there will be more Latin Masses in Churches … [More]
