Tucho can blatantly flout Church law because he knows that PF has his back.
Ping
The clergy running amuck. Another sign of the rot at the top.
Bergoglio is a stealth pope. He instructs others to do his dirty work.
Good afternoon.
I must be missing something. The Bishop is forbidding a Latin Mass be celebrated?
5.56mm
He can also say whatever he wants because nobody is even listening. Even the choir loft is empty now...
The enemy hates Latin. Fr. Groeschel used to point this out.
Wherever a priest discourages Latin and or the rosary beware. To forbid it. Well. There’s no good reason to do so
Well, ebb, this is more like what I meant by “right-hand man.” Tucho and Bergoglio go back many decades, with deep schemes and connections in Vatican, USA, Buenos Aires, etc.
Tucho was never even mentioned in press until media woke up recently. He is more influential than Parolin. Titles are not key in holding power. Fernandez was standing by Bergoglio’s side as he was sworn in as Pope. He took over to liberalize the University in Argentina, with Cardinal Bergoglio overriding top officials thru sheer cunning. I won’t blab on here, just saying there is power of Title and of power of quiet influence.
There’s a damn (intential) good reason. This is all part of the “new paradigm” aka “hagan lio”!
You are not missing anything. You are correct.
Not entirely; the Tridentine (’old’) mass is ‘offered.’ The priest ‘says’ mass or ‘offers’ mass. Lay people in the church ‘assist’ at mass (’active participation’ on the spiritual, not physical, level). ‘Celebrate’ is the newer description and, arguably, incorrect.
If I’m wrong, there are a few good experts here on liturgy history whom I invite to correct me! Very few people under age 55 know these details and the reasons.
You are correct. The Holy Mass is a sacrifice, not a celebration. Nobody should celebrate the sacrifice of the Son of God on the Cross.
