I remember my old professor, the Rev. Dr. Peter Toon, making similar points. It is interesting that there is a certain kind of Anglican "Evangelical" (although I suppose many of them would have been considered High Churchmen in previous days) whom I generally find right on target about, surprise, even matters liturgical, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-8779392973236660272010-10-23T23:43:22.576+01:002010-10-23T23:43:22.576+01:00Much of what Mr. Beckwith here writes are valid ob...Much of what Mr. Beckwith here writes are valid observations on the new Roman Calender even from a Roman-rite Catholic perspective. The new calender has no raison d'etre. When compared to the old Roman Calender, the new one offers no advantages whatsoever: it seems to have been invented merely for the sake of inventing something new, as all that was 'old' - the Calender, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-6689008889026619222010-10-23T22:00:06.575+01:002010-10-23T22:00:06.575+01:00Why did the C of E adopt Christ the King and these...Why did the C of E adopt Christ the King and these other very recent Roman changes?

OK, its not ancient, but it is both venerable and delightful to have <i>O Virgo</i> on the 23rd.<br /><br />Restore the BCP now!Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.com
