the Roman Missal is awkward and negative in tone not in keeping with the spirit of our Lord. I find it to be depressing not uplifting to my soul.

The new translation is motivated by ideology not good worship . The translation is in many place wooden and Latinate. We need not only longer preparation for change but a whole new revision which takes the English language seriously. Beautiful prose it is not.

Top down management of how we are going to speak is counter productive and contentious; Wait for an international groundswell to respond, and then respond with language like the language: plain, simple, never grabbing attention or calling attention to itself with its pretensions or self conscious, puffed up with itself and artificially flavored and colored anachronistic language that no one uses in any conversation.
People who want to pray aloud in a way they think raises them levels above others because their language of choice is pedantic, egotistical, donnish and alien to people who just want to pray in a way they can feel the words are their own, and they are not having stuffed in their mouths words they would never say because those words attract too much attention to themselves, perhaps the whole point.
