The liturgical good sense of Cardinal Danneels

Shown in one of the last Masses in his official capacity- take a good look at what passes for the altar, among the other equisite ornaments of a once fine church.

what absolute blasphemy is this. Why's the priest celebrating Holy Mass (or a mockery thereof) on a piece of wood on some twigs, rather than at the Holy Altar? Ridiculous!

Three reasons why it's not all bad:

1. They appear to be celebrating Septuagesima, judging by the violet ponchos.
2. The cr*p liturgical arrangements can easily be removed and burned.
3. He's going!

Mind you, all that "active participation" (but only if your face fits) leaves me feeling quite sick.

Was that a crosier he was carrying or a second hand golf club? What a disgrace.
I have just discovered your blog. I have visited Brugges three times and had no idea that this "kind of thing" was going on. I am surprised and saddened. I have been a priest for 35 years this year and I thought I had seen just about everything. When I scrolled down and saw that "statue" of Our Lady I felt sick.

What more can I say. God bless you, you are obviously doing a great work in revealing all this tripe, rubbish and poison.
