Divine Liturgy With H.H. Pope Tawadros II - Priesthood Ordination of Maged Mourad
I question whether I will ever get used to the clanging of cymbals and such during Divine Liturgy.

Benedictine v. Jesuit
NLM: Benedictines vs Jesuits Revisited: Further Thoughts on Models of Liturgy in the Church
Fr. Christopher writes: "The devotio moderna in the late medieval period, as it focused increasingly on the humanity of Christ, and less the Kyrios of glory, took a turn to the more intimate, private and devotional."
Is there a connection between this and Jungmann's insistance on the proper emphasis on Christ as man in liturgical prayer?

Archbishop Cyril Vasil on Byzantine Marriage and Oikonomia
Sandro Magister: Divorce and Second Marriages. The compliant “Oikonomia” of the Orthodox Churches
Compliant toward the bullying of the civil tribunals, from the times of the Byzantine empire. The past and present of the matrimonial practice of the Orthodox according to the reconstruction of an authority in the field, Archbishop Cyril Vasil, secretary of the congregation for the Oriental Churches
by Sandro Magister
"Up until the end of the ninth century, it was still possible to contract a civil marriage, but by the year 895, on the basis of Emperor Leo VI’s Novella 89, the Church was declared the only institution with legal competence for the celebration of matrimony. In this way, the priestly blessing became a necessary part of the legal act of marriage."
Can we say that Byzantine dogma on the priest being the minister of the sacrament of marriage is a theological opinion and not fixed in the deposit of faith?
