@RobbieSherman77 I share your fears, but anything wld be better than what we have now. I miss Pope Benedict beyond words. What he did w. Sonnorum Ponticum was to end 40 disputatious yrs on liturgy & give us the opportunity to worship as Catholics did for generations. God bless God's noble servant — PolitiTweet.org

Several of my friends say under letter from @WashArchbishop, 3 TLMs will remain in DC diocese. Unfortunately, they're at a Franciscan monastery, a chapel in the burbs, & a Church in Southern MD-all very inconvenient for any DC resident. — PolitiTweet.org

@Steve1118NSS @WashArchbishop I'm delighted to hear that. Crowded worship is always uplifting. When I am in Harrisburg, PA, I go to 7 AM weekday TLM at church near Capitol & it has. for the past few yrs, had 40 - 45 worshippers. And I'm always one of the oldest 10. — PolitiTweet.org

@NelwynToes @WashArchbishop So sad you can't pass judgment on someone you never met & on a situation you clearly don't grasp the seriousness of--or the hurt now felt by those it affects. — PolitiTweet.org

@tonyannett We were doing just fine under Sonnorum Pontificum? — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@vlgn11 @NelwynToes @WashArchbishop Exactly. And we don't even know where or when this will happen. Again, no one can understand the assault against people who want to worship a particular way. — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

@NelwynToes @WashArchbishop Don't know you. You don't realize how much it hurts those who worship at the TLM--or why those who are devastated by having it rescinded won' take this l& move on. — PolitiTweet.org

To @WashArchbishop & to @Pontifex, I cite the prophetic words of Willuam F. Buckley, Jr. about the NO in 1967: "My faith is a congeries of dogmatic certitudes,, one of which is that the new liturgy is the triumph, yea the resurrection of the Philistines." — PolitiTweet.org

Watching Catholics, TV dramatization of Brian Moore's disturbing 1972 play (w. Martin Sheen & Trevor Howard, I realize that eerily, it has come to life under @Pontifex & I fear its ending is happening under @gregory.Life imitates art 50 yrs. later. — PolitiTweet.org

@Steve1118NSS @WashArchbishop Much of the groundwork for evangelizing Africa began under Archbishop Lefebvre in the 1950's. Many modern African prelates--Sarah of Guinea & Arinze of Nigeria-were more generous w. TLM than their counterparts elsewhere. Col. Ojukuo of Biafra, Catholic convert, had TLM funeral — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

It mystified me: the Catholic Church in US has record-low regular attendance, is financially devastated--& @WashArchbishop pulls the rug out from the most faithful worshippers, who give generously & drive any distance just to be closer to God w. TLM. Go figure! — PolitiTweet.org

John Gizzi @johngizzi

If reports are true about @WashArchbishop rolling back TLM to one church in DC archdiocese, my heart is truly broken. Will try to ask for forgiveness for him.& for @Pontifex, but I think they will have to get it from a higher authority. Pray FOR TLM & especially Pope Benedict. — PolitiTweet.org

Assuming Sarah McDonald's article is accurate & the Catholic Church's attendance & finances are dwindling desperately, why--in the name of God--is @Pontifex trying hard to drive away those who faithfully attend Mass & contribute above regular parishioners--TLM Catholics, us guys? — PolitiTweet.org

A yr after Traditiones Custodis came out, my judgment on @Pontifex is the same as the Roman Emperor Tacitus on Emperor Galba: Omnium Consensu Capax Imperii Nisi Imperasset (Everyone agreed he'd have made a good Emperor if he'd never been one). — PolitiTweet.org
