Latin Mass No Threat To Judaism

Submitted by mary, Jul 13, 2007 13:16

I guess et's pretty easy to cut and paste from a book like the Bible and make your own interpretation. After all, if you're going to be literal then men can't have long hair etc etc... Not that I'm Jewish or a reporter but this is what it's about talking about: (try research)

'The 16th-century Tridentine Mass, which refers to Jews as "perfidious", was replaced in 1969. In the words of the original, penned in 1570, Jews live in "blindness" and "darkness"; it pleads that "the Lord our God may take the veil from their hearts and that they also may acknowledge our Lord Jesus Christ".'
