Document targets Eucharist abuses
The paper covers a range of issues related to the Eucharist: It suggests, for example, that Latin be used during international liturgical gatherings so all priests involved can understand the proceedings, and it suggests that parishes consider using more Gregorian chants to prevent more ''profane'' types of music from being played.
That's interesting wording: not only is it bad to use profane music at Mass because it's profane, it's bad because there are so many great choices of sacred music.
I'll be curious to see how much description is applied to profane to avoid confusion.

Okay, it's nitpick time :-).
The Miami Herald article reads:
>>>It says the tabernacle -- which holds the bread and wine held by Catholics to be the body and blood of Christ (snip)
Actually, the species of wine is not stored in the tabernacle. Slight mistake there.
Also, I kinda wish they hadn't said "bread and wine." I'd have rephrased it: "It says the tabernacle -- which holds the host held by Catholics to be the body and blood of Christ," or something like that.
In Jesu et Maria,
As long as Dan Schutte is on the list of profane music I'll be happy.
Please, Lord, no more horrible music!
