The bishop in the next diocese over coerced a Benedictine Abby into ceasing the celebration of the TLM in their crypt chapel once a month on a week day back in the early days of Summorum. That is “opposition.”

It took almost 5 years, but Rome finally forced the bishop to respect the just aspirations of the faithful and offer a regular weekly TLM in his diocese. They now offer one mass in that diocese on Sundays at 2:00.

Some people just don’t prefer the old rite. That is not “opposition.”

It might not be very perceptive on their part, but it ain’t opposition ;-)

Dear Brian,

The denotation of your words means one thing, but the connotation another.

“It might not be very perceptive on their part, but it ain’t opposition ;-)”

So those who prefer the new rite are not, in your view, opposed to the old rite, but are just stupid.

Brian, you're a foot doctor. You know you only have two feet. Try not to shoot 'em both.
