Will Francis Abolish the Latin Mass? (Archbishop Lefebvre Still Resists… Even from the Grave)
Introduction by Michael Matt
Let’s go back ten years and imagine me telling readers of The Remnant that the day was coming when the pope would resign and be replaced by another, who soon thereafter would order every church in the world to close its doors, suspend Sunday obligation indefinitely, ban all private Masses in the Basilica of St. Peter in Rome and initiate a plan to abolish Summorum Pontificum worldwide.
You would have cancelled your subscription to The Remnant, and rightfully so, its editor having obviously lost his mind. And yet among his many increasingly bizarre initiatives, declaring all-out war on the Mass—the Traditional Latin Mass, as well as Novus Ordo private Mass—may go down in history as the hallmark of this disastrous pontificate.
