Good point, Steve. That’s the crux of the matter. The rich theology takes some understanding. Do we catechize the laity so that when they hear “ancient bondage” or “ineffable,” they will understand what they mean and have their faith deepened as a result? Or do we dumb the liturgy down to substance-free spiritual sentiment and leave them where they are? Let’s hope the bishops, contra Trautman, decide to go with the former.
