To: ebb tide

Rigidity has been theme often repeated by the pope in connection to the rise of interest in the traditional Latin Mass among youths and young adults, as has been reported by LifeSiteNews in the past.

That's incorrect. It's not just aimed at those interested in the TLM, it's any orthodox Catholic.

Right. It really doesn’t have much to do with liturgy. Rather, it’s his regular temper-tantrum aimed at any and every Catholic who opposes ditching Church teachings on marriage and sexuality. The gays (because their own obvious self-interest) and the liberals (mainly because of their idiocy) want to trash the Church’s perennial teachings on marriage and sexuality. Liberals like Pope Francis, who probably isn’t gay himself, have bought into the idea that Church teachings on marriage and sexuality are hopelessly outdated and are the main obstacle to the people joining or staying in the Church. Ditch the unpopular rules on marriage and sex, and people will come back in droves. It’s insanity, and that approach has tried and failed for countless liberal protestant sects, but, no matter, they still think it’ll work.
