Archbishop Cordileone: "Many Latin Mass Faithful Have Experienced Rejection and Marginalisation by the Hierarchy"

The Archbishop of San Francisco, Monsignor Salvatore Cordileone, supports the two letters for the Mass in the Roman Rite from intellectuals in Britain (3 July) and the Americas (15 July).

Speaking to PillarCatholic.com, Cordileone rejects the "stereotype" that "lovers of the Latin Mass are rigid and backward". His argument is that there are "so many great creatives" among them.

"Rather than rigid, some of the most creative Catholic minds are those drawn to the Latin Mass."

Archbishop Cordileone recalls that Francis has called for a listening Church: "These petition signers speak to Pope Francis with great humility and in a spirit of obedience, and with the kind of confidence that children have when they go to a loving father, in order to speak of their spiritual needs."

Monsignor Cordileone sees the Roman Rite as an instrument of evangelisation: "The traditional Latin Mass is a tool that works for some people; not the only one, but it works for some."

Asked about Archbishop Viganò and Spanish sedevacantist nuns, who have declared their separation from Francis' Vatican in recent weeks, Cordileone refers to the internet: "Social media rewards and magnifies the most extreme and disrespectful voices."

He wants to amplify "the voices of those who, as in this petition, are faithful Catholics, declare their loyalty to the pope, and at the same time ask that no further restrictions be placed on their access to a form that feeds them spiritually”.

Further, Archbishop Cordileone suggests some introspection: "Why do some lovers of the Latin Mass show such rigid behaviour? Many, I know, have experienced rejection and marginalisation by the Church’s pastors - the very ones called to nurture them spiritually - simply because of their desire to worship in the way the Church has done for many centuries."

In his own experience, "Latin Massgoers are good Catholics and faithful to the Catholic Church".

And, "They aren't heretics or schismatics as a general rule. Some of the strongest Catholics I know, who serve the poor and their parish, love the Latin Mass."

Despite Bergoglio's public acts of apostasy - Pachamama and Fiducia Supplicans - Monsignor Salvatore Cordileone remains united to Bergoglio as if nothing had happened, even though Bergoglio has declared war on God and the Church. This is what the apostate angels who joined Lucifer in his rebellion against God did.

This type of Cordileone's pseudo-resistance that tolerates Bergoglio's direct rebellion against God is Betrayal of Faith.

Certainly. This is because these two liturgies belong to two different religions, which differ from each other in their ecclesiology, sacramentology, theology, etc. These are two different worlds.

And here he is revealing his true intentions (keeping the sheep corralled within the conciliar reeducation camps):
“I support Pope Francis, and his concern that those who are drawn to more traditional forms of Catholic worship also affirm the validity of the Novus Ordo form of the Mass and, indeed, of the Second Vatican Council.” Archbishop ‘grieved’ by ‘disrespectful’ responses’ to Pope Francis’ curbs on Traditional Latin Mass

Of course, Francis and his accomplices will not be able to tolerate the presence of foreign elements in the depths of their false religion, i.e. the presence of the authentic Catholic Faith and the Liturgy that expresses it.

He’s simply cajoling and complimenting the lemmings on their “obedience” to the conciliar hierarchy, and declaring that if their good behavior continues, there may be hope of benefits in return. When a wolf puts on sheep’s clothing, this is what it looks like. Or am I to be stupid enough to believe that men committed to the false council are willing to permit the seeds of revolt within their dioceses? Such centers are only reeducation camps designed to keep conservatives from becoming trads.
