An alleged "clericalisation" has led to the "liturgy celebrated before Vatican II" (= Roman Rite), Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa railed in his March 24 Lenten homily in Saint Peter's.
In reality, "clericalisation" has never been as rampant as today when Francis believes that he is above the Faith. Cantalamessa spread the falsehood that the Novus Ordo is a "return" to an "older" form, when in fact it is a 1960s neo-Protestant secularisation of the liturgy.
The Holy Mass was virtually unchanged from Gregory (+604) to the failed Vatican II, but it is much older than Gregory, although historical documents for the early centuries are rare.

So the Holy Ghost and the saints of the Church were doing it wrong until this holiest of generations came along and fixed everything. Their hubris drips from their pours like sweat.
