My advice is taken from Matthew 19; 29 and it reads:

And everyone who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's, sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting.

and when I try to tell them why I will not attend it, the entire conversation is almost brushed off.

I am wondering if part of the problem is that parents often don't take their children's views seriously. Ask them if they will talk to the priest and get him to explain to them why it is important for you to go to the TLM. They might be more receptive to him.

Throughout the realm and history of Christiandom, there have been many illustrious bloodlines. Unfortunately these same families have produced some black sheep. They have names like Theophylact, Gaetani, Medici, Pallavicini etc. It seems your family is no exception.

So, are you saying he is the black sheep of his family?

I do not think that Hobble meant to say that he should go to novus ordo services.

FWIW, I believe it is crystal clear he was NOT saying such a thing. I have been impressed and edified by the advice y'all have given in this thread and the manner in which it has been given. Thank you.

After Low Mass, there was some talk of going to Novus Ordo again. I said respectfully, that I couldn't do so in good conscience not so much because of the language (my parent's issue) but because of the Missal itself, and the theology associated with it. There was no discussion on theology, no disagreement, only that they are fine with my opinion. I may have been making a mountain out of an anthill, and going about it in the wrong way initially (trying to discuss specific theology), but they are fine with my opinion (as they usually are when I have a strong stance on some belief). I feel great!
