“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

Those among the liturgical elite who believe that Joe and Mary Catholic are too dumb to understand Big Words should be called the “Ineffable Party.” Know-nothingism is a great American tradition after all (along with the KKK, deep-fried Twinkies, and Oprah).
Fr. Philip, OP
Those bishops and other clerics who consider the word ineffable inappropriate for use in the Missal, themselves display an ineffable disdain for the intelligence of their flocks.
Guardini is one of the most graceful writers. You can linger over each sentence profitably. I never tire of him.
I’m sorry… what word is that? Never heard it before anywhere. What could it possibly mean? I can’t imagine. If only they taught vocabulary in schools!

I have three recent sightings of a variety of controversial vocabulary posted at the following addresses:

The man who says, “I am unable to describe what ‘ineffable’ means,” just did.
Since Prof. McInerny’s reaction to the recent fiasco, I have been reading his Fr Dowling novels. All the ones I’ve got to have “ineffable” in it.
