Very good. A well reasoned and logical rebuttal as to why the Our Father ought not must not can not be changed.
A reasonable question would be why did HH decide to change the Pater now?

Did biblical scholars suddenly question the accepted translations that have been in place for two millennia?
Or was the possible reason for attempting to change the wording in the Pater something more mendacious?

I have always wondered why we say " Yours is the kingdom the glory as Henry the VIII changed it too?! ( Sorry can't remember) what we say after the "Our Father" and now we raise our hands like protestants. Does anyone know what I am talking about? :) Sorry...
The English Pater Noster is based on Hal's authorised translation some years before his break with the Church. The doxology of 'for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory' was added during the reign of Elizabeth I not the ardently Protestant Edward VI, who commenced emptying churches of their furnishings in earnest.
