"Who does he think he is?"-- a priest told us today.

That is not really relevant. What is relevant is *Who do they think WE are?*

They think, as liberals of the past, that we are sheepish conservative idiots - blindly following THEIR rules, while THEY trample on everything. 1/
They are expecting one reaction from us, and one only: "obedience". That is: "blind obedience".

Of course, THEY (the Modernists, currently in charge of the highest echelons of the hierarchy) don't care about obedience from THEIR side. 2/
No, no. THEIR lay faithful can contracept, and abort, and pay for abortions, and legislate for death and genocide and euthanasia. THEIR priests can "bless" adultery and sodomy. THEIR professors can teach all aberrations, from a "Queer" god to abortion as sacrament. 3/

#SummorumPontificum
We were asked by a prominent reporter to comment on the Francis document purportedly trying to do what a MUCH stronger pope in a MUCH stronger position (Paul VI) couldn't -- that is, abolish the Latin Mass. Here are our first thoughts.
Yes, it is huge.

It is the most stinging rebuke by a Pope against his predecessor in living memory -- there has never been anything like it. Remember that the document itself is just 14 years old, and that Benedict XVI is still alive.
Legally, it's a complete mess. Benedict had made clear in Summorum that it is basically impossible for an ancient rite to be simply abolished. Paul VI had never truly abolished it, it was implied, because he could not do it. And the commission of cardinals that advised John...

“It is time — past time — to make plain that, while the pandemic poses many grave challenges, there is no world in which the Constitution tolerates color-coded executive edicts that reopen liquor stores and bike shops but shutter churches, synagogues and mosques.” Justice Gorsuch
"At least according to the Governor, it may be unsafe to go to church, but always fine to pick up another bottle of wine, shop for a new bike, or spend afternoon exploring your distal points and meridians. Who knew public health would so perfectly align with secular convenience?"
"Now, as we round out 2020 and face the prospect of entering a second calendar year living in the pandemic’s shadow, that rationale has expired according to its own terms. Even if the Constitution has taken a holiday during this pandemic, it cannot become a sabbatical."

Does the "Charismatic Renewal" include strange things?

Yes, it does.

But we have met an inordinately high number of cradle Catholics who came to the Traditional Latin Mass after being "Charismatics".

1/4
It's easy for us to forget the complete upheaval of the 1960s and 1970s. Beliefs and practice simply disappeared in many places. And, for many people, the new "Charismatic Renewal" was a refuge they found for some semblance of Christianity and family life.

We see this in the life story of Judge Barrett's father, a permanent Deacon: one can simply read his testimony here and see that it happened exactly like this. But his seven children are a sign that his commitment to Catholic morals never failed.
