Generational Divide in Liturgical Approaches

There is a generational divide among clergy when it comes to liturgical approaches. Older clergy, regardless of their theological conservatism, tend to have less understanding of why Catholics would be interested in traditional liturgical practices, such as the Latin Mass or chant. On the other hand, younger clergy who have been exposed to a more reform of the reform approach emphasize the use of Latin, chant, and more reverent liturgical practices even within the Novus Ordo. This generational divide can lead to a lack of trust and understanding between the two camps, with some older clergy dismissing traditional practices and some younger clergy dismissing the Novus Ordo as outdated. Both sides need to recognize the value and importance of a well-rounded and reverent liturgical experience.
