"Liturgy" is a word in ENGLISH
An established formula for public worship, or the entire
ritual for public worship in a church which uses prescribed forms; a
formulary for public prayer or devotion. In the Roman Catholic Church
it includes all forms and services in any language, in any part of the
world, for the celebration of Mass.
The values we rightly associate with the modern age - the "liberty, equality, and fraternity" of the French revolution - are all endangered today not by the dead hand of tradition but by modernity itself, and they can be salvaged only by moving beyond it.
