Justin,
I guess I have to admit I am a little suspicious of it. It seems to me allot can be done to destroy current tradition by invoking something "even more traditional". If one reaches far back enough, I suppose almost every practice can be seen as a sort of innovation. For instance, yes the priests vestments, the sanctuary, censors, ect go back into the old testament, but they were not practiced exactly like we do today. So in effect, someone can come along and say, well, you know folks, these things are really not as traditional as such and such, so we are going to change this and that, and the other thing. Before you know it, you could have something totally unrecognizable, and even worse, you will have broke people from having an inherent sense of what they know as tradition and gotten them used to "innovation" in the name of tradition. Sounds wierd I know.
On the other hand, I don't think there is anything wrong with everyone singing, in fact, I think it is a great thing! There are many parts of Greek services where everyone sings and I always try to sing softly to myself during service.
For this thread though, I am just trying to find out how and why this is happening in the new-calendar churches as a sort of "movement".
