"The future of liturgical reform": a perpetual, never-ending 1970s, that can’t be bargained with, can’t be reasoned with, doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear, and absolutely will not stop, ever, until the liturgy is dead. religionnews.com/2021/04/13/the… (h/t @RorateCaeli)

And I hope that I will live to see the zombie 1970s finally laid to rest, while also playing my part to make that happen!
