On my gosh the hilarious Blogging Utah Priest the Orthometer is out it again. For his past work see my post Catholic Bishop Concerned About the Word "Ineffable" and other Big Hard Words in New Missal
This Latest goes out again to Bishop Trautman and now it appears Bishop Victor Galeone of Saint Augustine, Florida that thinks Catholic in the pews are well stupid. Go see John Allen’s interesting account of the USCCB vote on liturgical translations ofr background.
Notred Catholic Journalist John Allen reported (article in above link):
All that changed this morning, however, when Bishop Victor Galeone of Saint Augustine, Florida rose to oppose the proposed text—despite, he said, fear that doing so may be "in vain." former Latin teacher who still reads Thomas Aquinas in the original language, Galeone made a forceful argument that the new translation is simply too unclear and awkward to be effectively used in American parishes.
Among other things, Galeone cited the text’s use of the phrase “the gibbet of the Cross.”“The last time I heard that word was back in 1949, during Stations of the Cross in Lent,” Galeone said.
Again I think we can make it clear to the American Bishops we can understand "hard words"
For the definition of Gibbet (see Bishop we folks have goofle to look these hard words up) go here
