Last Sunday I went to a traditional latin mass. My first time. It was the single most transformative spiritual experience in my life. Everything I had built it up to be. I don't want to speak very decisively, because I only went once and there's more to read. I also have waited so long to write about it because I wasn't sure what to articulate and how.
Two things though.
1) Highly recommend. They're trying to steal it away from us. If you're Catholic I think you should go out of your way to experience it.
2) This was a default daily / weekly experience in western societies for over a thousand years. The power of an entire society experiencing that is hard to comprehend.
