Nobody in Rome is Happier With the SSPX Consecrations than the Unhinged Andrea Grillo

GKC said: "Those who leave the tradition of truth do not escape into something which we call Freedom. They only escape into something else, which we call Fashion." Grillo is a great example of the truth of this quote!

From Rorate Cæli

Andrea Grillo: the nemesis of the eucharistic innocence of St. Carlo Acutis -- and of the Traditional Latin Mass. The liturgy professor in the Anselmianum is widely considered the ghostwriter of the Francis document that shut down (with gradual pressure) the Traditional Mass, Traditionis custodes.

And nobody in Rome is happier with the Econe Consecrations than Grillo. In his mind, it confirms all his a priori opinions not only about the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), but of all Catholics who love the Traditional liturgy, wherever they may worship and whatever may be their affiliation. All traditional Catholics are evil and must be eradicated, and the old liturgy obliterated.

He has launched a torrent of texts under the title “After the Schism,” whose basic theme is: “I was right.” It would be just pathetic, if he weren’t so undeservedly influential. His insane takes against Acutis had seriously tarnished his reputation in the Vatican; now, the Consecrations may manage to make him heard in liturgical matters once more. An all-around disaster.

We would translate his texts, but they are just so unhinged (while remaining influential), that we will just link to his Facebook page, which has seen feverishly prolific activity in the past week. (Facebook provides automatic translations of his texts, which are so bad they actually sound just as bad in translation.) 

Traditional Catholics love the Pope and the Church, and stand with the Pope and the Church; Grillo has only hatred— for the Church, for the papacy (which he openly mocks), for the good, and for the beautiful.
