Boniface Luykx’s Critique of the Novus Ordo as Defective Ritual (Part 1 of 2)

Boniface Luykx was an influential member of the preconciliar Liturgical Movement, a world-renowned scholar, a contributor to the preparatory phase of Vatican II, an expert at all four sessions of the Council, and a member of Bugnini’s Consilium, the group that constructed the new rite.

Luykx expresses some of the fiercest criticisms of the reform that I’ve ever seen in print (and that’s saying a lot). Wait till you see it (or hear it) yourself.
