AN EXCELLENT COMMENTARY ON POPE LEO’S FIRST 50 DAYS: THE CHURCH HAS COLLECTIVELY AND GLORIOUSLY BEEN BREATHING A SIGH OF RELIEF AT SO GREAT A PONTIFF!

 One is not always sure that a commentary that Rorate Caeli prints is going to be fair and balanced and not be what I call of the heterodox right wing of neo-traditionalist Catholics.

Pope Leo’s priorities and stances as Pope are only becoming clear very gradually. The synod study groups meant to deal with controversial issues will now report in December rather than June and their non-binding character has been emphasized, while Andrea Grillo, the ghost writer of Traditionis Custodes, has been thrown under the bus by his own university. Radical liberalism might be quietly getting shelved. For now, however, the people Pope Leo choses to promote (or not) are the clearest and most concrete indication of what this new pontificate means for the future of the Church.
