Francis says he's getting rid of diocesan Latin Masses in order to foster unity in the Church. Evidently, this is an example of what Francis sees as unifying liturgy pic.twitter.com/K3oFdsTgwU

Pretty clear, isn’t it?
We are our rites.

With out the puppets…. but they would be warmly applauded, literally, this is the same mass ( with a lower case m) that my family are forced to attend here in Chile every Saturday night.
God forbid we go to mass on Sunday. Whew… I would not make for long to join the protestants, but I repeat myself. Sunday mass is always geared and presented for toddlers. Oh it is the same on Saturday but the hoop la is less since there are typically 5 to 12 in attendance and they are not so excited about being entertained.
I truly believe that Mr Rodgers (God rest his saintly soul) would be more Catholic if he said the mass.
Today is the feast of St John of the Cross. I cannot see the Cross in that video.
It is so offensive to put on a show instead of worthily offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
Today is also the feast of St Chrysogonus. He is in the Roman Canon as one of the martyrs commemorated at the altar. I always feel sad for the martyrs who died for the faith not being commemorated in the new order prayers other than the Canon.
I don’t think such…productions, celebrations, whatever you call that mess makes them or God happy.
Just watching that gave me heresy.
So cool and totally not lame at all!
I’m going to give the bishops all my money and throw out my copy of the Summa. This is the way!
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? That’s all I have.
That priest desperately needs prayers! And not just because it’s awful and degrades the Mass. Without a conversion I’m afraid he’ll wake up one day and overcome with the banality of what he’s doing will lose his faith entirely. That sort of thing doesn’t sustain one spiritually.
I suspect homosexuality. That’s how most men will see this.
Looks like it’s from a kid’s show where the orange donkey/horse is the main character.
oops, kids’. I wonder if the orange donkey teaches proper grammar.
I know this from my time in Mexico. Same music, same accent, same style, same double offering of bread and wine together.
How much more unifying can it be!? One puppet has a biretta, and the other looks like the golden calf of (de)construction.
I see a jackass on the right…and then two more jackasses besides!
My spiritual IQ dropped over a dozen points watching that.
Francis admitted in black and white that there are abuses in the NO. He has not made any effort to week them out. What does that tell us?
“Francis says he’s getting rid of diocesan Latin Masses in order to foster unity in the Church.”
In fact, by definition, vernacular (i.e., local) liturgy is the principle of disunity.
Beam me up, Scotty, there’s no intelligent life down here.
At least the cleric mascot is correctly vested in choir dress (with a biretta!).
But in all seriousness, there are two things I would note: 1) this is clearly a dumbing down of the Mass for children (which bespeaks a malformed sense of pedagogy) and 2) this was done as a streamed Mass (a practice which should be universally banned).
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? That’s all I have.
The current Pontificate has been one colossal Charlie Foxtrot.
If only they had listened to Father Kolvenbach.
