E96 The Latin Mass: It's Not About the Liturgy w/Larry Chapp

Creedal

Today on the show, my friend Larry Chapp joins me for our monthly conversation, this time to talk about the latest communique from the Vatican on the suppression of the Latin Mass. We talk about whether or not the move really is about the liturgy, why Francis isn't entirely wrong in his assumptions, why bluntly wielding an authoritarian hammer is not the right way to go about things, and a certain US cardinal who has been all to eager to seize the moment.
