Francis Sidelines the Latin Mass

Mr Holdsworth discusses Francis's motu proprio abrogating Summorum Pontificum.

Today, Pope Francis issued a Moto Proprio called "Traditionis Custodes" which reverses the reforms made by Pope Benedict XVI to allow the faithful access to the traditional Latin mass, or what BXVI termed, "the extraordinary form". This new legislation significantly suppresses that access in the name of promoting unity.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
