Anthropocentrism vs Theocentrism

Created to satisfy man with its Anthropocentric orientation, The Lil' Licit Liturgy tends to form man into a mess of a mass movement that is at ease in the house of God and apparently piety-phobic. 

ABS has had to suffer through hundreds of these debacles over the years and it has been a burden to try and keep the Faith and to avoid drowning in a Masonic Morass amidst this Anthropocentric atmosphere.



Created to worship God, The Real Mass with its Theocentric orientation tends to form man into a community of worshippers who respect and honor the house of God with decorum and piety.

It is much easier to raise one's intellect, will, and memory towards our Triune God in the Theocentric atmosphere of the Real Mass.

ABS likes to arrive early for The Real Mass in Miami to prepare himself to assist at the four different Sacrifical aspects of the Holocaust about to be Sacramentally re-presented to us at the Altar:

The Holocaust offered to God as an image/offereing to His sovereign greatness.

The Sacrifice of Expiation/Propitiation offered to appease His Justice owing to our sins.

The Sacrifice of Impetration offered to implore His bounty.

The Eucharistic Sacrifice offered to thank Him for His bounty.

The Mass is a Holocaust which the One True Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church offers to God as a offering to His greatness and power; a sacrifice of expiation to appease His justice; a sacrifice of impetration to solicit His bounty; and a Eucharistic sacrifice offered to Him in thanksgiving of all of His favors.

The Holocaust demands a spirit of humility, the sacrifice of expiation, a spirit of penance, compunction, and penitence; the sacrifice of impetration, a spirit of fervor and submission, the Eucharistic sacrifice, a spirit of love and gratitude.

After he has prepared himself to assist at the Holocaust, ABS likes to sit there quietly and listen to the tiny schola practice the various Chants for the Propers of any particular Sunday for Chant ineluctably leads to contemplation of Our Alpha and Omega and The Four Last Things, Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell.

The reader may have heard many times, as has ABS, that the Lil' Licit Liturgy is the same as The Real Mass but the plain and simple truth is that the Lil' Licit Liturgy has as little as possible in it to qualify it as a licit liturgy (Thus the nickname ABS has for it) whereas The Real Mass has all the good, true, and beautiful elements of the Holocaust in its four sacrificial aspects.

When our Hierarchy decided to kill the Real Mass and substitute the Lil' Licit Liturgy in its place, what was the substantial message given to real men of Faith?

What does it say about our Hierarchy when they seem indifferent - when they are not actively hostile- to the ineffable beauty of sacred music apt for Sacramental Sacrifice of The Holocaust when it is the case that even our government-funded secularist programs express admiration for it?
