Well, the thing is that he can’t do it, and in fact, his silly attempt to invoke “magisterial authority” for a stupid, vague but threatening statement about liturgical changes shows exactly how little he understands about it. At first people were nervous, and now they’re laughing at him.
I’m much more worried about his stupid political stunts, like going to Myanmar to “support” the Rohingya, the Muslim minority that is causing many problems by attempting to spill over out of its area into the Buddhist rest of the country. There are virtually no Catholics in Myanmar, its new democratic government is very fragile right now, they are under attack from the Muslims - and Francis the Foolish announces that he’s going to fly in to rescue the Muslims from “persecution”...? The Catholic bishops of the country are very alarmed, btw, because they think that this will turn the Buddhists against the Catholic population.

Ditto!
