Hatred for the Latin Mass: Evidence of the demonic



Hatred for the Latin Mass, evidence of the demonic.  See here.

This liberal hatred refuted here.


Have you ever encountered a priest, Bishop or layman who impugned the Latin Mass? Is such an attitude even Catholic? In a word, no. In his Apostolic Letter Ecclesia Dei, Pope John Paul II said that, "Respect must everywhere be shown for the feelings of all those who are attached to the Latin liturgical tradition...for the use of the Roman Missal according to the 1962 edition."

And, in his book "Salt of the Earth," Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger said, "I am of the opinion, to be sure, that the old rite should be granted much more generously to all those who desire it. It's impossible to see what could be dangerous or unacceptable about that. A community is calling its very being into question when it suddenly declares that what until now was its holiest and highest possession is strictly forbidden and when it makes the longing for it seem downright indecent."

To be sure, Vatican II called for an extended use of the vernacular. But nowhere did Vatican II call for the Latin language to be abolished from the liturgy. And anyone who claims otherwise is either ignorant of the facts or a liar. The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy (Sacrosanctum Concilium) No. 36 states clearly that, "Particular law remaining in force, the use of the Latin language is to be preserved in the Latin rites."

Number 54 of this same Vatican II document teaches that, "In Masses which are celebrated with the people, a suitable place may be allotted to their mother tongue. This is to apply in the first place to the readings and "the common prayer," but also, as local conditions may warrant, to those parts which pertain to the people, according to the norm laid down in Art. 36 of this Constitution.

Nevertheless steps should be taken so that the faithful may also be able to say or to sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them."

This is the teaching of Vatican II and the mind of the Church on the use of Latin and the attitude Catholics should have toward those who are attached to the Latin liturgical tradition.

Thank you for this post. I read the harridans screed and was appalled.
She mentions being triggered by not being able to receive in the hand
at the Mass and also being looked at for wearing leggings to same.
She sadly has no concept of Holiness or appropriate decorum at Mass.
The heretical and demonic feminist bias the writer had ruined the article
for me. She mistakes vulgarity for beauty...and so many other errors.

The thing that gives me pause is the people who agree with her disgusting,
faithless view of the Mass. It is tragic.
Again, thank you for posting this.

Your friend in Christ, Michael.

The times grow darker! Exorcists have said the demons hate Latin.

I'll be in Mason New Hampshire at the prayer house if you read this Michelle.

Truly demonic. This is the fruit of ecclesiastical masonry.
