Today is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. I'm so disappointed. There are such beautiful songs about Mary: O Sanctissima, Immaculate Mary, Hail Holy Queen enthroned above, Alma Redemptoris Mater, not to mention concluding with Salve Regina Chant. But we didn't sing those. We sang songs most people couldn't sing.
Why?
The Cantor was a soprano.
Forget about fighting for women to be priests. That's a waste of time. Fight to ban women from being cantors.
I can prove that my grievance is right. Listen and watch the congregation when you have a woman cantor. Listen and watch the congregation when you have a man cantor.
Aha! See, I told you. Most people can't sing those high notes. When it's a male cantor, everyone sings.
Stop the arguing about womynpriests and girl altar servers. Take up my cause; no woman cantors. At least no sopranos.
