Springfield Bishop Thomas Paprocki, Illinois, a canon lawyer, called Francis’ Traditionis Custodes “confusing” and “not well-written.”
He noticed speaking to CatholicWorldReport.com (July 27) that the Roman Mass is no longer allowed in parish churches but at the same time a bishop has to "retain" already erected parishes for the Roman Mass if this is spiritually useful.
Paprocki asks where these Roman Masses should be celebrated if not in parochial churches: “I don’t believe it is the intention of the Holy Father to kick people out of the churches and make them have Mass in a gym or parish hall, or to have us re-designate churches as shrines or oratories.”
Therefore, Paprocki was the first bishop who dispensed from the prohibition to celebrate Roman Masses in parish churches. Several bishops followed him, including even pro-homosex Vienna Cardinal Schönborn who “allowed” the Roman Mass to continue in St Rochus parish church in Vienna.
Ping
Wish they’d name the “several bishops”. Schoenborn is not a liberal entirely, he did do the new catechism with Ratzinger.
What does Satan think of the Latin Mass?
A confused rule can get this rescinded if a more orthodox Man becomes pope.
That is my thoughts.
Gyms or parish halls? No. Prisons.
Pretty sure it is under attack right now because he hates it.
