"Everyone" Is Waiting

If Francis vandalises Summorum Pontificum, it will be interesting to see how the Integralists explain that to their young fogeys.

Cdl Müller praises Summorum Pontificum, argues against “authoritarianism”: “It takes prudence and respect for groups and people who want to celebrate Holy Mass with the rite adopted until John XXIII, without creating new tensions” https://t.co/ztIdTsBI1q @RicCascioli @lanuovaBQ

Some Will Say That This is Enough on Müller's Part

"Tact" in light of ultramontanism and all that.

Cardinal Müller expressed sympathy for those sounding the alarm about the #GreatReset and recalled that totalitarian systems “have always denigrated any criticism as conspiracy and subversion” https://t.co/iRhrywjFzy @NCRegister

— Edward Pentin (@EdwardPentin) February 4, 2021

Perhaps the most significant danger of the #GreatReset initiative is its utopian-atheistic vision, according to critics. @ProfKlausSchwab and Malleret, for instance, never once mention God or religion in their book, or leave any room for the transcendent https://t.co/iRhrywjFzy

Rome: "Heresy is Preferable to Schism"

Could this be extended by Latin traditionalists to possible criticisms of Rome's negotiations with the Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian Orthodox?

For Cardinal Gerhard Müller, the prevailing thinking of German bishops and an increasingly radicalised laity is more akin to modernism than Protestantism but the Vatican won’t issue any serious ultimatum because it wants to "live in peace” https://t.co/tRbtZ3gmLe pic.twitter.com/H6u87d50Fn

Cardinal Müller on Fratelli Tutti

CWR: Cardinal Müller discusses Fratelli tutti, Trump and Biden, Corona-virus restrictions, German “Synodal Process”
“In our love for the Church of Christ,” says the former Prefect for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, “we must interiorly overcome personal injuries, apocalyptic fantasies about the end times, and the impulse to resign ourselves…”

Kath.net: On Sunday, [October 4,] Pope Francis published his new Encyclical, Fratelli tutti. What is your initial evaluation?

Cardinal Müller: The Encyclical is quite comprehensible and is to be recommended for more in-depth study, insofar as it is addressed to all people of good will and even teaches with Veritatis splendor by John Paul II that intrinsically evil acts do exist, contrary to most German moral theologians. It would be wrong to say that it is consistent with the Freemasons’ or the United Nations’ talk about fraternity, because it emphasizes the transcendence of brotherhood in God the Creator and expounds God as Father and the Church in Mary as Mother of all mankind. Its argumentation can be situated along the line running from John XXIII to Benedict XVI about [the Church’s] social teaching and the non-negotiable values of human rights. The Christian message is not reduced to what is universally human, but rather the reverse: the human way of life that grows from the faith is recommended as a foundation for the coexistence of human beings of different religions and cultures in today’s global civilization.

Aquinas on Conscience

This is a stunning research uncovering and correcting a longstanding (and mostly Jesuit) misreading of Aquinas on conscience. I wonder if @americamag would be willing to publish an essay by Justin Anderson summarizing his research?

Will He Retire Soon?

CWR Dispatch: ‘The culture wars are real,’ Cardinal Pell says in new interview
“There is a systematic attempt to remove the Judeo-Christian legal foundations [on for example] marriage, life, gender, sex.”

Sandro Magister: The Easter of Cardinal Pell. With Comments From Ruini and Müller

A Good Change or Not?

Carlo Viganò doesn't think it is a good change, the dropping of the title "Vicario di Gesù Cristo." Cardinal Müller is not happy either.

Some might be hopeful and think that this reflects a change in Jorge Bergoglio's ecclesiology. But note that the title "Sommo Pontefice Della Chiesa Universale" is retained.

LSN: Abp Viganò: Has Pope Francis now ‘disavowed’ being Vicar of Christ?
The Pope now seems to declare himself 'absolute monarch even with respect to Christ,' according to the archbishop.

While previous yearbooks listed the title “Vicar of Christ” and the name of the reigning Pope under that title, this year’s annual directory simply lists the name “Jorge Mario Bergoglio,” the name of the man who became Pope Francis in 2013. The title “Vicar of Jesus Christ” stems from Holy Scripture where Jesus granted St. Peter the power of the keys in the Church.

This is, naturally the Latin interpretation of Matthew 16:19 and its application to Rome's claims about the authority of the bishop of Rome.
