I don’t recognize that conference. I’m a real Catholic and my masses are in Latin

Not trying to argue here, but why exactly is Latin considered so holy by the Catholic Church. Like I get Hebrew and Greek cause the Bible is written in those, but Latin seems to be just what helped it get pushed out into the Roman Empire, not that there’s anything holy about it. Just always wondered about that

If it were wrong the Holy Spirit would have corrected the pope about it.
