I really don't understand why the Vatican feels the need to meddle here. Is it really so important that the Syro-Malabars face away from the people, but on the other hand that those who celebrate the Roman Rite always face the people? (There have been quite a few over-zealous dioceses in the US who went beyond Traditionis custodes and have started to ban ad orientem at _any_ Mass.)

Maybe they can have their versus populum back and I can have my ad orientem? Please?

And yet the head of the DDF, who deals with issues that can affect the salvation of souls directly, is telling us that he doesn't want to be harsh to would-be murderers but would engage in dialogue with them?

Doesn't it say somewhere that the faithful have many, varied gifts? Like, some see more clearly looking east, others, looking elsewhere. Meanwhile, the Eucharist is freely given to so called Catholic political leaders who vigorously promote abortion at all stages, as well as other morally reprehensible acts. Strange priorities in the Vatican.
