Former Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Gerhard Mueller has issued a column in The Catholic Thing regarding Bergoglio's attack on the Holy Roman Mass of the Church Fathers. As a column to be posted shortly on Quo Primum will note, Paul VI did not abrogate the Mass in its 1570 codified form, he did not disobey Quo Primum, as I have said in many discussions, he simply set it aside. Cardinal Mueller does not say this specifically but he clearly annunciates Bergoglio's intent. By choking off new locations, new priests and hoping enough bishops hostile to the Mass shut it down, he will "condemn the Extraordinary Form to extinction in the long run."
The frequent complaint by these who hate tradition and noted in this wretched work of Bergoglio and his minions is that we who favour the traditional Mass and choose not to attend the Ordinary Form of the Roman Right reject it as invalid as do we the Second Vatican Council. At the Mass I attended yesterday and lead the choir the priest is a decade, at least, younger than I. He remembers not this liturgy as I do in my younger years. He was educated in a modernist seminary, ordained according to the ritual books of Paul VI. Yet, here I was, here we were, at a traditional Latin Mass where a post-Vatican II priest offered the Holy Sacrifice and confected the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Good grief - it is elemental logic that it follows that I, we, must implicitly accept Vatican II - even at the same time questioning language and ambiguity, implementation and interpretation!
Mueller notes the vindictive attack by Bergoglio on the little people: "Without the slightest empathy, one ignores the religious feelings of the (often young) participants in the Masses according to the Missal John XXIII. (1962) Instead of appreciating the smell of the sheep, the shepherd here hits them hard with his crook. It also seems simply unjust to abolish celebrations of the “old” rite just because it attracts some problematic people: abusus non tollit usum."
Bergoglio's work is taking a chilling effect in some places. I note that in the Philippines, Masses were cancelled and not even able to be held yesterday, the Eighth Sunday After Pentecost. This is criminal, uncharitable, mean-spirited and demonic. Those bishops will pay the ultimate price before the LORD.
In most places, certainly here in Toronto, it was normal.
There will be more said about this soon. We must pray for Our Lord and Blessed
Mother to pour out graces that bishops have hearts of charity and care for
those sheep on the "peripheries." Clearly, the chief bishops does not
and has by this act, displayed himself as the ultimate hypocrite.

Cardinal Mueller on the New TLM Restrictions - The Catholic Thing
2 comments:
VII was always classified as a Pastoral Council, not an ecclesiastical & binding one. Now these villians are trying to make it binding on everyone. That cannot be. It will take VIII to do that & I doubt it would succeed. In fact, Iḿ sure that either a full-blown schism will occur or they will be forced to climb down & admit their heinous eccumenical experiment has imploded. There should be an immediate calling of the imperfect council Cardinal Burke promised us to denounce this Apostate & his demonic appointees,reinstate PBXVI requesting him to mandate TLM in every Catholic church worldwide & carry out the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary when She will then take the reins & he can properly resign according to Canon Law.
It is to be noted that Cardinal Mueller refused to sign the Dubia & seemed to obstruct its furtherance; only when he was sacked along with members of his staff did he become more vocal. Since then we have had the Pachamama scandal within the Vatican itself, concluding Mass celebrated with one such idol on the altar, placed there by Pachapappa himself, 7M Chinese Catholics handed over to the CCP for a reported $2B p.a., more money laundering by IOR officials including Cardinals of high rank & now this.
I refuse to waste any hope at all in these men. We have the same type in the political realm, the weak kind with not enough conviction to do anything worth much. A few squeaks and it's all over. Done that.
There seem to be two paths.
One, resist Bergoglio and his satanic extermination of the Holy Mass. Recognize it for the hateful act of a man facing his own mortality yet determined to go out shaking his fist at God. He was hired for a reason.
The Traditional Latin Mass threatens them because it is the proper worship of God as God intended. Catholics should stop being lazy and looking for social hour and go to the TLM and see for themselves Catholicism. You've been robbed. Go reclaim your heritage. Laziness about Latin is no excuse. Get a Sunday Missal from Ebay with Latin on one side and English on the other. Get one from about 1962 or earlier. You don't need to know every word to follow the Mass, and absolutely nobody cares if you don't know the Rite. You're there for God, not others. People are focused on God, not you.
For what it's worth, I don't think Bergoglio can be pope. No pope would do this. He does not own the Holy Mass, and only an imposter would try to eliminate what he does not own. He does not have the right to kill the TLM unless he does indeed "own the Holy Mass" A pope is to defend the faith and PASS DOWN THE FAITH INTACT. If men of the church will not resist him to the face, we must, and if that means leave for the SSPX, or even do without the Mass of the Ages and be excommunicated for the rest of our lives, so be it.
But no more co-dependent relations with Bergoglio. It is sick. It is exhausting, it is depressing, it is over.
Ana Milan's solution sounds spot on. But I do not believe the men of the church will do one thing more than make a few squeaks. I will not waste a moment waiting for them any longer.
