It is very off putting to young people, young men and women alike. No wonder are Churches are empty of the young.
You know it is only in the Western Catholic Church in very, very recent times have we had such heavily Protestant tendencies in our Liturgy. For instance our Maronite Catholic Sisters and brothers worship facing East as we did ourselves until a very short time ago. As the Universal Catholic Church has done for 2,000 years.
Martin Luther would give his approval to the post Vatican II liturgical changes and the ransacking of the Churches. That says it all.
