In the wake of Traditionis Custodes, it seems that not a month passes without some presumably well-intentioned prelate or pastor suggesting that a satisfactory substitute for canceled traditional Latin Masses is “doing the Novus Ordo in Latin.” Most recently, we saw this proclaimed in a humiliating homily from the pulpit of a basilica in Chattanooga. Well-meant or not, this idea is an absolute non-starter, for several reasons.

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 Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, 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.
