"Sinful War Over Liturgy" - Cardinal Sarah

"The Church is, at least in the West, in a time of great difficulty, even of confusion, both at the doctrinal level and at the moral and disciplinary level", Cardinal Robert Sarah told IlFoglio.it on August 2.

For Cardinal Sarah, it is "a tragedy, indeed a real and proper sin", that there is "a kind of war" and "fierce conflicts" over the liturgy.

Main quote: "No one has authority over the rites, which arise from the centuries-long history of the Church. The rites cannot be arbitrarily abolished, and no one can say that a rite no longer exists from one day to the next."

The Cardinal wants to return to Benedict XVI.'s Summorum Pontificum, which allows the Mass in the Roman rite alongside the Novus Ordo: "Over the decades, the holy people of God will be able to choose which form best corresponds to their need for faith, silence and spirituality."

He added: "Some excesses on the part of those attached to the extraordinary form are, in part, justified by the dramatic and widespread abuses of the liturgy of the ordinary form which, to this day, is often not celebrated as the Council would have wished and as the liturgical reform itself suggests."

Card. Sarah: "Man, even contemporary man, absolutely needs God, to hear talk of the Gospel, of eternal life, of spirituality. It is never permissible to reduce the Gospel to social and horizontal themes, however relevant, because it is a failure to fulfill Christ's very will, who sent us to preach eternal salvation, and not social redemption"

John 9:41
Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would not have sin. But now that you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.

The “liturgy” isn’t the real problem. They’ll give you the liturgy. It’s the sodomy they want you to agree with….that’s the real problem.

The new liturgy is a vehicle and tool of the revolution. Preparing sheep for new dogmas and morals.
As for sodomy the first version of Catechism of Revolution (JPII one) is very telling.
