This claim is contained in Francis' July 16 letter which accompanies his controversial Motu Proprio Traditionis Custodes - but it seems to be just another of his lies.
Specula writes on InfoVaticana.com (July 30) that there was “no pressure from the world episcopate” to crack down on the Roman Rite.
Only about 30% of the questionnaires were completed and returned to Rome. More than half of them showed “favourable or neutral positions.”
Speculas conclusion, “At best, 15% of the world's bishops are in favour of Traditionis Custodes.”
