Bishop Mutsaerts: Why is ‘liturgical diversity’ good except for Latin Mass?

A Catholic can attend the Divine Liturgy according to several traditions. But as soon as a Catholic wishes to attend a Latin Mass, suddenly liturgical diversity becomes a problem.

The Catholic Church prides itself on its universality, cherishes an impressive diversity of liturgical traditions, and regards that diversity as an expression of its richness. A Catholic can attend the Divine Liturgy according to the Byzantine tradition, the Maronite tradition, the Armenian tradition, or the Chaldean tradition. No one considers this a threat to ecclesial unity in and of itself. But as soon as a Catholic wishes to attend Mass as it has been celebrated for centuries in Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, and virtually the entire Latin Church, some ecclesiastical authorities in Rome begin to express concern.

Leo XIV Baptizes the Murderous French Revolution: Says Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, are “Universal Ethical Imperatives”

Leo also praised the anti-Catholic French Enlightenment for recognizing “Human Rights.” Meanwhile, Rome describes the Church as a “movement,” and a German theologian describes Islam as Christianity.

On July 17, 1794, sixteen Carmelite nuns were taken through the streets of Paris to the guillotine. Their crime was fidelity to their religious vocation. Expelled from their monastery, they had continued living their rule as best they could. When the revolutionary authorities finally arrested them, they were condemned and executed. They sang hymns on their way to the scaffold. (Excerpts from Chris Jackson's long article)

The Knave in the Nave, the Asp in the Apse

Incinerated churches, beheaded priests, bloodshed during mass, desecration of the sacred, Catholicism is up in flames, as its edifices are hollowed out by the enemies of the faith.

Another insightful article by Elizabeth Yore on the state of disarray within the Catholic Church. One cannot help but think that this deterioration is not accidental, but directly linked to the rise to power of a new anti-papal lineage at the Vatican—now spanning thirteen years.

«Roma locuta, logica finita»

«Rome has spoken, logic is at an end»

There is a passage in Book Gamma of the Metaphysics that one always rereads with a smile that is not particularly charitable. Aristotle, weary of those who denied the principle of non-contradiction, decreed that there could be no discussion with them: whoever maintains that something can be and not be at the same time and in the same sense, he says, resembles a plant. Not a fool, nor even a sophist: a vegetable. One likes to think that twenty centuries of theology took this warning seriously. God does not contradict Himself, the truth does not contradict itself, and a Church guided by the Spirit cannot teach on Monday the opposite of what it solemnly and universally taught until Sunday evening. All this, of course, was before 2 August 2018.
