Fifty eight words in one sentence to be read in public

The Opening Prayer at yesterday's Mass was made up of one sentence with 58 words.

It is close to impossible to read in public one sentence with 58 words.

How many sub clauses, what was the main verb.

Is this really the best they can do?

It is awful.

Then again, it's no longer the Opening Prayer, rather the Collect.

Maybe that explains it.

Also, is God not the protector of all?

This behaviour reminds one of how the government of the former GDR introduced new words into the German spoken east of the Elbe.

One is reminded of the words of Jesuit priest and author Richard Leonard: Ideology is the enemy of true discernment.
