Priest HATES the TLM?

Priest HATES the TLM?

A Jesuit priest says he “hates” the Traditional Latin Mass—but that may not be the most interesting thing he said.

Fr. Thomas Reese’s provocative article, “Why I Hate the Old Latin Mass: A Confession,” generated plenty of outrage online. But judging from the reactions, a lot of people never got past the headline.

I did.

In this Catholic Q&A edition of Fire Branded, I take an honest look at Reese’s argument: what he gets right, where I disagree with him, his surprisingly traditional comments about obedience to the Church, and the liturgical reforms he says he still wants to see.

And that last part is where things get interesting.

Because the real story may not be that a Jesuit priest “hates” the Traditional Latin Mass. The real story may be what happens when liturgical reform begins loosening the boundaries of the Roman Rite—and whether that leads to a better liturgy or simply the Wild West.

Later in the show, I also talk about some changes coming to Fire Branded, the new members-only “Fire Pit,” why I’m returning the podcast to more of an old-school broadcast style, and why I’m increasingly pulling my energy away from social media and toward the people who actually show up.
