Chrism Mass: Francis Insists on Forcing Priests to Co-Preside

Roman Rite priests must be forced to co-preside Novus Ordo eucharists, “at least for Chrism Mass,” Francis told some French bishops during an April 21 meeting.

Francis’ claim contradicts Canon Law. According to FamilleChretienne.fr (April 21) the bishops present were de Moulins-Beaufort (Reims), Blanchet (Créteil), Leborgne (Arras), and their secretary.

Francis insisted “with force” that the decree exempting the Fraternity of St Peter from Traditionis Custodes was his own. He didn’t mention other Roman Rite Institutes.

Neither Francis nor the bishops mentioned "The Roman Way," an initiative of mothers of Roman Rite priests who are currently marching from Paris to Rome.

@Sam D There is only one Catholic Church, unfortunately Francis is the current Pope, and you either belong to that Church or you don't.

History shows there have been other bad Popes before Francis. Good luck with that schism. I think they have a cream for it at the pharmacy. :P As for blindness, pick up some exra-strength No True Scottsman Fallacy before you leave. It's in the eye-care section. Comes in a big black/ blue 'n white box like this.

Exemptions for a few select orders, will in effect keep the TLM from becoming universal throughout the Church. It's unjust and malicious and unbecoming of a Vicar of Christ.

Bergoglio canceled all his engagements for today due to health reasons. He is being checked out by multiple doctors. Some people have speculated its his knee, but he did fine all Holy Week. But he did look ill on Holy Thursday, and especially on Good friday at the Colliseum. Several websites say that he looked ill on Easter Sunday and acted "exhausted" and ill.
He wasn't so sick as not to bash traditional Roman Rite priests yesterday at this audience with French bishops.
But this was unexpected. He's probably sick. Regardless, it's getting time for him to take a big trip. Almost time to go, Bergoglio-o-o-! 🤪
