Should Pope Francis Resign? An Interview with Peter Kwasniewski
“It is always regrettable and always disruptive to have a leader step down from his throne, but it is sometimes the right thing,” says Peter Kwasniewski.
“It is always regrettable and always disruptive to have a leader step down from his throne, but it is sometimes the right thing,” says Peter Kwasniewski.
In Bound by Truth, Kwasniewski offers guidance on what Catholics ought to do when Church leaders depart from the common good.
A truly philosophical investigation must remain open to things that pertain to the domain of grace, the life engendered by faith.
The Once and Future Roman Rite is an historical study and a call to action. The author writes that, “We are privileged to be living at a moment when it is possible for the laity and the lower clergy to be taking the steps needed to recover our glorious inheritance.”
The one leading the Church is Pope Francis. We should pray for him, not deny his authority.
It is a privilege to be alive at this time, carrying the torch of tradition through the darkness. Those who are seeking the light will see it, rejoice in it, and follow it.
If the Church as we know it is to survive, it must change course immediately. I have no doubt that in any future attempt to salvage what is left of it, Kwasniewski’s analyses will be invaluable.
It is noticeable that many of the book’s Anglophone contributors are almost bewildered by the sudden papal attack on the traditional liturgy. This is a shortcoming of the Anglo-centric perspective, which underestimates the depth of the antipathy towards the Apostolic Roman Rite amongst many non-Anglophone bishops.
