I Am SOOOOO Glad I Don't Live in Los Angeles

The Byzantine Rite as practiced in the Moscow Patriarchate on Good Friday, and the modern Los Angeles Pontifical Liturgy.The only bad thing I can say about the Byzantine Rite is the sleigh bells on the thurible have to go. The only GOOD thing I can say about the LA thing is....well, not a thing. Absolutely nothing.

I actually got to witness part of a rite at the Cathedral of the Assumption in Vladimir, Russia.
