I’m sympathetic to Traditionalism in that I like the Latin Mass in preference of the vernacular, and think VII has some problematic loose language which allows for people to do things they shouldn’t.

However, too many traditionalists seem to enjoy being the “faithful remnant” and wear their estrangement as a badge of honor i.e. SSPX.

Our new Pope Francis is the embodiment of every good, old, wise priest I have ever known. In fact, he looks just like Fr. Vogel of McKinney, TX (who died a few years back).

One of Fr. Vogel's most memorable statements was about his two artificial knees: "I wore them out praying for all of you."

We have a good one in Francis.
