From Fr Z

• Pope Benedict, dialogue with the Orthodox and carping liberals. He is the Pope of Christian Unity because he is the Pope of Continuity. The writer doesn’t know this issue well: the two sides clashed over so-called “uniatism,” meaning the ways in which Catholic communities of the Eastern rites duplicate in everything the parallel Orthodox communities, differing only by their obedience to the Church of Rome. Everything? Rome orders it but in practice not so much. Because the Greek Catholics want it that way.
• It’s not about Latin but his readers overwhelmingly want services in it.
• The Collect for the Conversion of St Paul. The new one in Latin and faithfully translated is fine.
