The close friend of Pope Benedict XVI, Archbishop Luigi Negri, said the
fBenedict decided to resign as a result of “tremendous pressure.”
“I am certain that the truth will emerge one day showing grave liability both inside and outside the Vatican.”Negri said:
“It is no coincidence that in America, even on the basis of what has
been published by Wikileaks, some Catholic groups have asked President
Trump to open a commission of inquiry to investigate whether the
administration of Barack Obama exerted pressure on Benedict.”[https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/italian-archbishop-pope-benedict-retired-due-to-tremendous-pressure]
The Catholic Monitor commenter Aqua had this to say to the Vox Cantoris website: Aqua said… Fred, your topic here reminds me of a dust-up, a few days ago, on Vox Cantoris. He asserted that it is our duty as Christians to wear masks to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass if the government tells us we must, or they will close our Churches. My response to him was that I find it inconceivable that an orthodox Catholic, such as himself, would ever submit to unjust dictates from secular government over how we approach Our Lord in Holy Mass. My response to him was that the Mass belongs to Catholics and we decide, within the bounds of Tradition, and in accord with the Word of Jesus, how we conduct ourselves in Holy Mass. Only one authority prevails over Mass and that is our God and the Sacred Tradition given by Him to guide us in all times and places. Understand, there is nothing inherently wrong with wearing a mask to Mass. But there is EVERYTHING wrong with wearing a symbol...
