Bishops Told Cardinal Müller: Latin Mass Catholics Should Stay at Home or Go to the Lefebvrians
- I heard from some bishops that Catholics who do not want the newer form of the liturgy can either remain at home or go to the Lefebvrians [FSSPX].
- A plurality in the liturgy does not split the Church, the 'blessing' of homosexual couples does. It relativises the sacrament of marriage, which is a revealed truth.
- The Church Fathers acknowledged that there was some truth in philosophy, but never in pagan Greek or Roman religions. They never accepted the old religions.
- Different religions have different understandings of peace, liberty, and the dignity of the person. We cannot mix them. We are not fratelli tutti (all brothers).
- It goes against the Catholic faith that women could receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders in a certain time. Only men can become bishops, priests or deacons.
- Transgender is absolutely impossible. It contradicts Revelation. God created man and woman, male and female.
- Establishing a Muslim prayer room in the Vatican reflects a spirit of relativism. The Vatican is the seat of the Catholic Church, and permitting non-Catholic worship there amounts to self-relativization. This decision seems driven by a desire to appear 'open' rather than by theological reflection. Those who made it don't know the doctrine of the Church. I don't know if a Cardinal, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith or the Pope was asked. Muslims may see it as a symbolic victory — a sign of their perceived superiority being acknowledged.
