Cardinal Müller: "Leo XIV Must Heal Divisions Over the Roman Rite"
Cardinal Gerhard Müller believes that Leo XIV will overcome the superfluous tensions damaging the Church, he told ApNews.com on May 13: "We cannot avoid all the conflicts, but we must avoid the unnecessary ones."
Cardinal Müller considers Francis' crackdown on the Mass in the Roman Rite to be an "unnecessary division that Leo XIV knows he must heal":
"We cannot absolutely condemn or forbid the legitimate right and form of the Latin liturgy."
He added: "According to his character, I think Leo XIV is able to speak with people and to find a very good solution that is good for everybody."
Regarding the conclave, Cardinal Müller said that Cardinal Prevost "made a good impression" on everyone, adding: "There was no polemic, no division."
When asked if he had voted for Cardinal Prevost, Müller declined to comment: "Oh, I cannot say. But I am content."

It is sacrilegious to think that there would be a union of Church and One world religion over anything, including TLM. Those who don't confess Catholic Faith cannot be in union with Catholics. This is mumbo jumbo
Cardinal Gerhard Mueller, a titan of the conservative bloc, said Monday he was very pleased with the election and expected that Leo would heal the divisions that escalated during Francis’ pontificate. Mueller, who was fired by Francis as the Vatican’s doctrinal chief, suggested as a first step that Leo should restore access to the old Latin Mass that his predecessor had greatly restricted.
Restore the Latin Mass & also all the cancelled clergy that were unjustly persecuted by the heretic Bergoglio.
Healing divisions? Will he profess the Catholic faith, or the conciliar faith? He’s already announced it will be the latter. Who cares about being united with Muller in error?
So far the first order of business has been to meet with the top tennis player and plan a trip to Muslim Turkey , no mention of the consecration of Russia or elimination of communion in the hand , but his new apartment will be spiffy! When will they learn that obeying heaven should be their top priority?
Separating truth from error will cause a necessary division - Gospel of Matthew 10:34-36:
Not Peace, but a Sword
34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 And a person's enemies will be those of his own household.
The only way to heal the division between the Catholic mass and the Novus Ordo is to forever forbid the NO and attend the true mass of our Fathers.
Forbid? Like Pope Bergoglio forbid the Latin Rites?
Let the Latin Rites flourish by removing the Modernist restrictions. Then, let the Holy Spirit marginalize the Novus Ordo. The NO will fade away without a struggle.
I see a lot of arguments against Pope Leo and I don't see Anyone using scripture to back up their positions but I can easily find scripture to support my hypothesis that he is Christ like.
True but Catholics also have Catholic Church teaching! Maybe the Catholics are using Church teaching to support their position?
@Jeffrey Ade you are totally right!! my great online friend, brother Jeffrey!! yes!! I am sure that at this point it doesn't matter who the pope is... even if there is a crazier pope than Leo XIV, the most important mission for orthodox Catholics and Christians is to defend the orthodox doctrine against all evil ideologies and spread the truth until the moment our Lord Jesus Christ permits, whether it be now or tomorrow...Therefore, if Leo XIV goes down the path of serious error, I will strongly oppose him, as I did Bergoglio, but I will not be overly influenced by who the Pope is. In the end, the true light of the Lord will triumph... it's very important truth!!!! And you may have heard that JD Vance is going to the inaugural mass of Pope Leo XIV. He’s bringing his family with him. At this point, it’s becoming even more apparent how disgusting Trump, JD Vance, and the current Republican Party are... During the Biden presidency, Trump, J.D. Vance, current Republicans, and their idiot supporters would slam Biden, Harris, and the Democrats for wasting taxpayer dollars by taking their families on family outings. So why aren't Trump, J.D. Vance, his idiot cabinet, and Republican officials criticized for taking their families on family outings now? Shouldn't they be criticized by the same standards?
The thought of watching JD Vance pretend to be a devout Catholic makes me sick already... I would be convinced that Trump, JD Vance and the current Republicans are true believers only when they fully support the brave African Christian nations (Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya, Tanzania, etc.) who are staunchly opposed to LGBT and indiscriminate abortion-promoting ideology, and all countries with common sense, and lift the ban on Paul Makonda, the current Tanzanian Arusha District Councilor and former Dar es Salaam Governor who has been banned from entering the US since Trump's first term because of his staunch opposition to LGBT and indiscriminate abortion ideology. And show the bare minimum of concern for the Christian communities in Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and Armenia who are oppressed and persecuted by the false Zionists! But I am sure that will never happen...And I also saw that Trump visited the Middle East and praised Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which are part of the vicious Islamic extremist group, and praised the Syrian interim president, which is part of the Islamic extremist group. How ridiculous it is to think that such a person is protecting the Christian community and leading the Christian revival!! stupid suppoters are ignore about this truth.... jajajaja... Even though we may be a very small minority, I am sure that we must go the right way and never fall into any ridiculous cult...My story was long... sorry...May the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus always grant you, your family and all your loved ones infinite graces....Holy Mary, all Angels and Saints.. pray for us... Amen.. take care.. have a great night... preparing about huge persecution!!
Read St John Bosco's dream about the Pope on the ship. First Pope is Francis, it describes how he died, second pope is a holy man. Would we recognise Christ if we were alive 2000 years ago or would we say "He does things differently to how I want them done and I am very smart so He must be wrong?"
"We cannot absolutely condemn or forbid the legitimate right and form of the Latin liturgy." Then why was Paul VI, who did just that, canonized?
I doubt Pope Leo will heal divisions in the Church. He has shown no signs of it so far.
