@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost @CardinalBCupich As much as I loved Pope Benedict (rosary blessed by him is always w. me), I had no problem w. current Pope until a yr. ago w. Traditiones Custodis--& lately,as he takes Putin line on Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost @CardinalBCupich They said the Mass could be said in Vernacular language but never abrogated anything. From 1965-70, that meant saying the Latin Mass in vernacular languages. The Mass you refer to came in 1970. FYI--JPII & Benedict both reaffirmed the validity & sanctity of TLM. — PolitiTweet.org

@IMFox1 I occasionally come there. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost @CardinalBCupich And there you go--Catholics are split, too. Hey, no need to argue: let's see how the church looks in 10 yrs. Nothing against NO, & both parents loved it. But they respected TLM Catholics. I have a feeling the devout young people I interviewed will stick with. TLM & it'll grow. — PolitiTweet.org

@IMFox1 Wow! Sounds like a worthy endeavor. Where are you based? — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost @CardinalBCupich Not to all. The Latin Rite promulgated at Council of Trent worked fine for 500 years. Let those who love it continue to worship & to evangelize. — PolitiTweet.org

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost @CardinalBCupich Institute of Christ the King, which oversees Latin Masses in Chicago diocese, ordered to shut down Aug. 1 (Catholic Culture. Jul. 18). DC will go from 9 Masses in churches to 3 extremely inconvenient locations outside city. Sounds like a shutdown to me. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost it i specious to shut door on people who want to worship, whatever their numbers, & JP II & Benedict understood this. If more TLMs were permitted, there would be more worshippers. & not one of my non-Catholic friends cimorehend why @WashArchbishop @CardinalBCupich are doing this. — PolitiTweet.org

@NelwynToes @newsmax @washingtonpost @washingtontimes widely reported. — PolitiTweet.org

@IMFox1 Who knew what? — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@IMFox1 Yes, & I loved watching it & you. And the legendary Huntz Hall was a great priest. — PolitiTweet.org

@NelwynToes @newsmax @washingtonpost @washingtontimes You seem to call belittling names a lot but really don't have a lot beyond generalities or things you heard. And for no reason. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop @newsmax @washingtonpost What's important is not how many, but who--increasingly younger people, many of whom left the church but came back because of the TLM. And their numbers were growing, as the Masses were growing. Priestly Order of St. Peter kept excellent track of this in newsletter. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@Steve1118NSS @tonyannett @WashArchbishop All this would not be happening had @Pontifex left Benedict's sonnorum pontificum as it was. At a time when the Church's finances & numbers are are at historic lows. to try to deny the faithful abform of worship is. as Wm. Buckley said ofbtge NO, "the triump of the Philistines." — PolitiTweet.org

@IMFox1 Love how you told Lt. Hogan: "You are soon charming!" And he was. Where am I reaching you? — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@Steve1118NSS @tonyannett @WashArchbishop They aren't going to attend NOs & they made it clear in interviews w. me. They will just get up earlier & drive a bit further. But there was, as we agreed, no need for this. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @newsmax Try @washingtonpost & @washingtontimes for starters. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop I'm sure wherever there is a TLM, grateful worshippers will be generous. But it's going to be a big loss for churches in which it has stopped--something @newsmax & @washingtonpost reported after interviewing parishioners. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@tonyannett It's just a fact and widely discussed by priests and reported. What I made clear & you don't say was that all liturgy wars were resolved by Benedict in '07 & there was no dissension until--w. a church with other problems--@Pontifex started this a yr. ago--for no good reason. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @newsmax FSSP was granted exemption by Vatican--so can't be touched by diocese. All others offering TLM operate now as DC does until Sept. 21, but they will be ordered to stop August 1. Cupich was the most egregious. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @tonyannett @WashArchbishop There are many more than that and even that figure is impressive in terms of worship during weekdays--all on churches w. one TLM. Don't take my word--watch when donations dry up. TLM Catholics have been generous--until now. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@tonyannett After so many yrs of having easy access to TLM, why would they? In fact, I never met anyone who attended TLM & said NO was preferable. The reaction to @WashArchbishop makes this obvious. — PolitiTweet.org
