Signatories need to sign petitions asking Pope Francis to interpret Vatican Council II rationally and then he will be supporting the ecclesiology of the Latin Mass which will be the same at even the Novus Ordo.

 

Another group of signatories in favor of the Latin Mass have not addressed the issue of Vatican Council II. The Council can be interpreted rationally or irrationally and the conclusion is different. Pope Francis interprets the Council only irrationally and then produces liberalism which includes a new theology, new ecclesiology, new ecumenism, new evangelization etc. So this makes the old exclusivist ecclesiology of the Latin Mass obsolete.

So Pope Francis keeps saying that Vatican Council II has to be given preference, the Council cannot be ignored and that this is the new Magisterium, as Cardinal Arthur Roche put it. None of the signatories respond on this issue.

They will talk about the beauty of the Latin Mass and other positive elements without addressing the issue of Vatican Council II, which is in their favor. It is really their strongest point but they are silent on it.
