For what purpose was the Liturgy of the Word and Distribution of Holy Communion instituted if it is to be very reluctantly and very exceptionally permitted in place of the inavailability of Holy Mass on Saturday Evenings and Sundays and virtually forbidden on Weekdays? I particularly noticed the very glib suggestion that people attend Holy Mass in another church. This may be alright in Rome where there are plenty of churches and a reasonable transport system and London even, although there may be fewer churches but in regions where there are smaller towns, some with a Catholic church, and public transport is much less frequent or available the situation is very different. And, no doubt, the writers have cars and maybe chauffeur-driven cars. Interpreters of these paragraphs must bear these factors in mind. (Although one sees plenty of buses in the central area of Greater London the routes get less frequent the further one leaves the central area) Edited by Derekap, Friday, 26. June 2009, 20:27.
