Some things (should) never go out of style

  • Latin! There'll be a Pontifical Academy "for a more responsible use of Latin", the Pope himself says. I admit to occasional irresponsible use of Latin -- it makes me feel like something I'm not.
  • Priests wearing their collars! And what's this about capes? I've never seen an ordinary priest wearing a cape. 
  • Churches that look and sound like churches! Does "the post-conciliar trend of building unedifying churches" mean those churches are, literally, un-buildings? Some of them do look more thrown together . . . and that's putting it nicely.
