rebuildmychurch, That is is probably Teilhard de Chardin

Whom you might know as proposing a theology of evolution for man and the cosmos. I think the Bishop is saying that many of the previous translators are fond of Teilhardian loose interpretations and watered down theology and enshrined such a bent in their translation.

But who is “Tire de Chardan” (?) and what’s the reference to that person (?) on steroids?

Ave Maria!

10:13/13.41 “The new English translation according to, of course Liturgica Pontificam, is much much better; it’s a great improvement. The…it puts back in things that had been left out. I think it conforms to the Latin original. I think it has a measure of authenticity the other one did not have. All translation requires some subjectivity. You cannot have a perfectly objective translation of anything from one language to the other. But I think that the new translation, that should be effective in Advent 2011, will make the liturgy more clearly what it is intended to do…ah ah…to be. I think it will make the Latin more clear. It’s not…ah…Translation isn’t perfect, the new translation, but it certainly a great improvement over the one we presently have which Father…ah…brother says is nothing but Tire de Chardan on steroids.”
