I’m sure those questions are being asked. Pope Francis is very big on bith private devotions and public devotional acts.

How can you say that? The full survey has been made public and none of those questions were asked.

Really?

One is the Pelagian current that there is in the Church at this moment. I share with you two concerns. are some restorationist groups. I know some, it fell upon me to receive them in Buenos Aires. And one feels as if one goes back 60 years! Before the Council... One feels in 1940... An anecdote, just to illustrate this, it is not to laugh at it, I took it with respect, but it concerns me; when I was elected, I received a letter from one of these groups, and they said: "Your Holiness, we offer you this spiritual treasure: 3,525 rosaries." Why don't they say, 'we pray for you, we ask...', but this thing of counting... And these groups return to practices and to disciplines that I lived through - not you, because you are not old - to disciplines, to things that in that moment took place, but not now, they do not exist today... Pope Francis
