As for other events that have happened since his death, such as Fiducia Supplicans that allowed non-liturgical same-sex blessings, his views are predictable, given his vociferous criticism of previous attempts to change the Church’s approach to sexual ethics. He would have wanted “freedom for those who offer and attend the traditional-Mass,” Livingstone says, and would think it was better to “recognize their strengths.” Cardinal Pell thought Benedict XVI’s funeral was “disgraceful” and that he did not “get a fair send-off,” given a poorly arranged liturgy and other issues. He was also concerned about the next conclave, Livingstone adds, especially as the “cardinals do not know each other, that they never come together.”
