Problems and Prospects for Recovering Traditional Catholicism

This brisk Q&A period followed a lecture on the Roman Canon (which is available elsewhere on this SoundCloud page) given in Oxford on Friday, October 26, 2018. The questions go into such topics as the rationalism of the liturgical reform; the equation of participation with intellectual comprehension; the flaws of Paul VI's character that precipitated the liturgical crisis; why Vatican II was doomed because of a lack of clarity in its convocation and the patchwork viewpoints represented in its documents, making it a wax nose that can be twisted this way or that; why Pope Francis is the first real "Vatican II pope"; whether we should suddenly reimpose the TLM or let it come back slowly; why it was a mistake for John XXIII to introduce a new saint into the Roman Canon; why doing the Novus Ordo in a super-traditional manner is likely to cause more difficulty and division than re-introducing the TLM; and more!
