Cardinal Kasper assails Traditional Latin Mass community for divisiveness

Denver Newsroom, Jul 23, 2021 / 13:30 pm (CNA).

German prelate Cardinal Walter Kasper argued that the Traditional Latin Mass was a source of division and scandal within parishes in an interview about Traditiones Custodes with the National Catholic Register on Thursday, July 22, 2021.

The cardinal stated that those who prefer the Traditional Latin Mass “reject the Second Vatican Council more or less in its entirety” and characterized Benedict XVI’s Summorum Pontificum as a failed attempt at furthering unity.

While Cardinal Kasper did recognize that other threats to unity exist within the Church–notably the German synodal way–he stayed away from characterizing them with the same degree of danger as adhering to the Traditional Latin Mass.

“As far as I know, none of the bishops wants any schismatic act and there is a slowly growing number in the bishops’ conference who are resistant,” said the Cardinal about the German synodal way.

The full text of the interview can be found here.
