I think Francis and his people realize that whatever they do against the Roman Rite, it is going to backfire badly on them. A happy thought is that perhaps in 12-18 months, we might have a new Pope who has an appreciation for Catholic tradition and the Roman Rite, who dresses as a real Pope compared to Francis, who issues encyclicals dedicated to religious themes, unlike Francis, and who speaks with great clarity unlike Francis. And who once and for all supresses the idea of a "synodal Church", and takes care of the Germans as they deserve...especially Batzig and Marx.

Everyone pray for the Carthusian Order. Pray before the Blessed Sacrament that God spares them, and blesses them with many new vocations. They are the strictest monastic Order in the Church, and never were huge like the Jesuits or Franciscans, but the issue is that small Orders which are holy and good have suffered along with those that are liberal trash since Vatican II. The Carthusians according to some websites have between 280-350 monks and novices which is fairly good, but they had over 600 before Vatican II. I worry about some of the ancient Orders, because Vatican II has hurt them just like all the others....and the lower they go, the closer some become to extinction. One branch of the Camaldolese...a 1,000 year old Order, is heading that way because they have gone radical liberal even though they only have world wide about 80 members (about 200 before Vatican II). The Trappist monks had close to 6,000 monks before Vatican II, but only about 1,500 today. Before Vatican II, most …ច្រើន

Thank you, Cardinal Müller for your leadership and strong voice against the heresies being promulgated by the German Synod! May Our Lady continue to protect you - as you stand strong for the Catholic Faith and Her Divine Son!

@ Irishpol. @ Kenjiro M. Yoshimori; >Good debate! Nice to see no rancor between participants.

Entgegen alles scheinchristlichen Versöhnungsgeredes sollte sich niemand wundern, wenn eintritt, was der HERR selbst voraussagt: "Glaubet nicht, ich sei gekommen, Frieden auf die Erde zu bringen. Ich bin nicht gekommen, Frieden zu bringen, sondern das Schwert. Denn ich bin gekommen, den Menschen zu entzweien mit seinem Vater und die Tochter mit der Mutter und die Schwiegertochter mit ihrer Schwiegermutter. Und die Feinde des Menschen werden seine eigenen Hausgenossen sein" (Mt. 10,34-36). Das ist die zwangsläufige Folge, wenn Wahrheit und Lüge miteinander ringen.

True Catholic priests must STOP giving Communion in the hand. This is a blasphemy and a sacrilege, resulting from Vatican II and the protestantized liturgy it produced. That's the message here - and clear warning from Our Lord.

Regardless it is and remains the Body Blood Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ destined to to first be trampled under foot, then reside in the vacuum cleaner bag then the dump until some months later when the accidents of bread dissolve. Your choice Holy Communion on the hand or the tongue? “ He saith to them: Because Moses by reason of the hardness of your heart permitted you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. “ St Matt 19:8

I would caution anyone from accusing the RC Church of being "worthless", not because I am not sickened, like you, over the godless antics of Francis, such as the episode described above, but because it would confuse the acts of these scoundrels with the majority of faithful and orthodox Catholics who are the real Church as founded by Christ. Many of these are standing up for the Church in the manner of Christ rather than Barabbas and are quietly but diligently doing what they must to preserve and protect the apostolic deposit of the Faith for the future. I totally agree with you that our faith leaders could be much more public and vocal in their condemnations of what is happening. They have nothing to lose but their 'titles', and eternity to gain, if they do so.
