Answering Cardinal Roche’s Linguistic, Historical, and Theological Errors

Joseph Shaw, President of Una Voce, has written a reply to Cardinal Arthur Roche’s two-pagedocument against the Mass in the Roman rite, which was distributed at Leo XIV’s consistory last week in Italian and English.
Faulty Translation
Shaw notes that the English version of Cardinal Roche's document is a poor translation of the Italian:
“The Italian word sintonia, which means ‘harmony’, was rendered ‘syntony’ (para. 4). It is surprising that an English Cardinal should have missed this howler, and it suggests that he didn’t write the document personally.”
Cardinal Roche’s Threefold Argument
Shaw then summarizes Cardinal Roche’s threefold argument:
- that the Catholic liturgy has always changed through an ongoing process of organic reform;
- that Vatican II mandated liturgical reform;
- and that liturgical unity is essential to the unity of the Church.
The final claim is illustrated with quotations drawn from several popes.
Legitimate Diversity of Rites
Shaw observes that the appeal …ད་རུང་།

Mamdani Balls Up His Little Commie Fist and Rages After New York City Council Employee Detained by ICE

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) expressed outrage after a City Council employee was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Monday during what has been described as a routine immigration court appointment.
The incident took place on Long Island and prompted Mamdani to label the detention an "assault on our democracy" in a public statement posted to X. He has demanded the employee's immediate release.
The employee is reportedly a data analyst who has worked for the council for about a year. He has since been transferred to a detention facility in Manhattan.
It's absolutely fantastic to know that an illegal alien is handling data for the largest city in the United States.
"I am outraged to hear a New York City Council employee was detained in Nassau County by federal immigration officials at a routine immigration appointment," Mamdani fumed. "This is an assault on our democracy, on our city, and our values. I am calling for his immediate release and will continue …

Former Irish president claims infant baptism violates ‘children’s rights’ - LifeSite

Mon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:18 pm ESTMon Jan 12, 2026 - 12:30 pm EST
(
LifeSiteNews) — The former president of Ireland claimed that infant baptism violates children’s human rights.
The Irish Times published an excerpt from a recent talk by Mary McAleese at University College Cork (UCC), in which the heterodox Catholic made her case against infant baptism.
“Throughout the world, there continues a long-standing, systemic and overlooked severe restriction on children’s rights with regard to religion,” the former president of Ireland wrote.
“It restricts children’s rights as set out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948 and United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in 1989, to which both Ireland and the Holy See – which governs the Catholic Church and is effectively the author of canon law – are State Parties.”
McAleese, who was president of Ireland from 1997 to 2011, argued that children are restricted in their religious freedom by infant baptism, to …

Sheen’s scheduled December 2019 beatification was delayed after Rochester Bishop Salvatore Matano asked the Vatican to postpone the process, over concerns that Sheen — who served as Rochester’s diocesan bishop from 1966 to 1969 — might be accused of mishandling cases of sexual abuse or misconduct.

Early signs from Leo’s first consistory suggest continuity with Pope Francis’ original pastoral vision

Pope Leo Walks the ‘Early Francis’ Path — With a New Approach

COMMENTARY: Early signs from Leo’s first consistory suggest continuity with Pope Francis’ original pastoral vision — more in what he said than in how he later governed.
The direction of the Leonine pontificate is still not yet clear, but the consistory of cardinals last week gave some further indications.
Pope Leo XIV intends to continue in the direction of his immediate predecessor, but he prefers to do as Pope Francis said, rather than what Pope Francis did.
In announcing the topics for the consistory last month, Leo chose four that were central to the Francis pontificate —
Evangelii Gaudium, the reform of the Roman Curia, liturgy and synodality.
At the actual consistory, the cardinals chose to discuss the first and the last, about both of which Pope Leo has repeatedly expressed his commitment. Leo wants the missionary Church called for by Evangelii Gaudium, the charter document of Pope Francis, and agrees with Pope Francis that “synodality is what the Lord desires” for the Church …

Cardinal Roche’s Paper against the Mass in the Roman Rite

Cardinal Arthur Roche distributed at Leo XIV’s consistory last week a text on liturgy. Journalist Nico Spuntoni published the two-page report (facsimile below). It is a strong defence of Traditionis Custodes.
The report was one of four texts distributed to the cardinals. The others were written by Cardinals Tucho (Faith), Grech (Synod) and Baggio (Human development).
The strongest ideological rejection of the Mass in the Roman rite is in four quotations taken from Francis in the report's points 9, 10 and 11:
- “For this reason we cannot go back to that ritual form which the Council Fathers, cum Petro et sub Petro, felt the need to reform.”
- “The use of liturgical books that the Council sought to reform was… a concession that in no way envisaged their promotion.”
- “The liturgical books promulgated by the holy Popes Paul VI and John Paul II… are the sole expression of the lex orandi of the Roman Rite.”
- “I do not see how it is possible to say that one recognizes the validity of …ད་རུང་།

Accusations of deception against Patriarch Bartholomew

Accusations of deception against Patriarch Bartholomew within the clergy largely stem from actions related to the
autocephaly of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) and alleged inconsistencies in his exercise of authority.
Specific examples cited by critics (primarily from the Russian Orthodox Church and other dissenting voices) include:
Deception regarding the OCU's autocephaly: Critics claim Patriarch Bartholomew assured other Orthodox leaders, including Patriarch Kirill of Moscow, that granting autocephaly to the Ukrainian Church was impossible, only to proceed with it later in an "uncanonical fashion". The statute of the OCU is also alleged to have been adopted through deception.
Acceptance of schismatics: He is accused of receiving defrocked and anathematized schismatics (clergy from the former UOC-KP and UAOC) back into communion without genuine repentance or consensus from other churches, which critics argue violated canonical order.
Inconsistency on Church unity: Critics point …ད་རུང་།

Romanian Orthodox complaints against Patriarch Bartholomew center on
his strong ecumenism, particularly fostering dialogue with the Vatican, which critics see as heresy and a threat to Orthodox purity; his controversial granting of autocephaly (self-governance) to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU), seen as undermining canonical order; and his perceived assertion of undue authority, straining relations with other autocephalous churches like the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC). While the Romanian Church officially engages with Bartholomew, some within Romania express concern over his direction, viewing his actions as divisive rather than unifying
Modernization & Heresy:

Some traditionalists perceive Bartholomew's actions as a drift towards modernization and a dilution of Orthodoxy, contrasting with their view of maintaining strict traditional adherence, according to OrthoChristian.Com

Una Voce responds to Roche Consistory Report against the Traditional Mass

During the recent consistory, the meeting of cardinals in Rome, Cardinal Arthur Roche, Prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship, handed out a two-sided piece of paper containing some reflections on the liturgy to those present: this has been made available by Diane Montagna here. The liturgy had been among the four topics originally proposed for discussion at the meeting, but the cardinals decided to focus on just two, leaving the liturgy out. Cardinal Roche’s document was accordingly handed out without being formally discussed.
Versions were available in Italian and in English. The latter was clearly translated from the former, and not flawlessly: the Italian word sintonia, which means ‘harmony’, was rendered ‘syntony’ (para 4). It is surprising that an English Cardinal should have missed this howler, and it suggests that he didn’t write the document personally.
The argument of the text is not difficult to summarise. First, it makes historical argument that the liturgy has often …

Az Una Voce válaszol Roche kardinális konzisztóriumának a hagyományos misével kapcsolatos jelentésére
A közelmúltban Rómában tartott konzisztóriumon, a kardinálisok találkozóján Arthur Roche kardinális, az Istentiszteleti Dikasztérium prefektusa egy kétoldalas papírt osztott ki a jelenlévőknek, amelyen néhány gondolatot fogalmazott meg a liturgiáról: ezt Diane Montagna tette közzé itt. A liturgia az eredetileg a találkozón megvitatásra javasolt négy téma között volt, de a kardinálisok úgy döntöttek, hogy csak kettőre koncentrálnak, a liturgiát kihagyva. Roche bíboros dokumentumát ennek megfelelően formális megvitatás nélkül osztották szét.
A dokumentum olasz és angol nyelven is elérhető volt. Az utóbbi nyilvánvalóan az előbbiből lett lefordítva, és nem hibátlanul: az olasz sintonia szót, amely „harmóniát” jelent, „syntony”-nak fordították (4. bekezdés).

Court Sets February 10 Eviction Date for Nuns of Belorado

A Spanish court has ordered the eviction of the Poor Clares in the Monastery of Santa Clara in Belorado. February 10 is the date for a forced removal if the nuns do not leave voluntarily.
The ruling was issued by the Court of First Instance in Briviesca, which approved the provisional enforcement of an earlier judgment. The court's decision cannot be appealed. Any appeal would not suspend the enforcement of the order.
The property is currently under the legal administration of Archbishop Mario Iceta of Burgos.
In recent years, the Clarisse nuns of Belorado had joined different sedevacantist sects and more and more sisters left.

Trump: U.S. could SUBSIDIZE oil firms to rebuild Venezuela’s energy sector
President Trump suggests American firms like ExxonMobil and Chevron could rebuild Venezuela's crippled oil sector within 18 months – despite experts estimating a decade-long, $100+ billion effort – with potential taxpayer-funded reimbursements.
The plan follows Maduro's U.S.-backed ouster and aims to revive Venezuela's oil output (now at 1.1M barrels/day vs. 3.5M in 1999) to suppress global oil prices, benefiting U.S. consumers. Critics warn it risks corporate bailouts and contradicts oil firms' profit interests.
Energy giants remain wary due to Venezuela's history of nationalizations (Exxon/ConocoPhillips expelled in 2007; Chevron stayed under sanctions waivers). Exxon's CEO openly cited two past expropriations as cautionary examples.
Trump vaguely mentioned reimbursements via "U.S. funds or future oil revenues," but no formal talks with oil companies have occurred. Opposition leaders and Venezuelan officials …

Trump schlägt Subventionierung von Ölfirmen vor, um den Energiesektor Venezuelas wieder aufzubauen
• Präsident Trump hat vorgeschlagen, dass US-Ölunternehmen wie ExxonMobil und Chevron den venezolanischen Energiesektor mit potenziellen, vom Steuerzahler finanzierten Erstattungen wieder aufbauen könnten.
• Dieser Plan zielt darauf ab, die Ölproduktion Venezuelas, die deutlich zurückgegangen ist, wiederzubeleben, um die globalen Ölpreise zu unterdrücken und den US-Verbrauchern zu helfen.
• Experten schätzen, dass die Wiederaufbaubemühungen ein Jahrzehnt dauern und über 100 Milliarden Dollar kosten könnten, während große Energieunternehmen aufgrund der Geschichte der Verstaatlichungen Venezuelas vorsichtig bleiben.
• Trump schlug vor, dass Erstattungen aus US-Fonds oder zukünftigen Öleinnahmen kommen könnten, obwohl keine formellen Gespräche mit Ölgesellschaften stattgefunden haben.

Spanish Archbishop Denounces Instrumentalization of Abuse - Only 0.6% Linked to the Church

Sex abuse is selectively and ideologically treated in public debate, writes Archbishop Jesús Sanz Montes of Oviedo, Spain, on Abc.es on January 11.
While condemning homosexual abuse cases within the Catholic Church, he argues that focusing almost exclusively on ecclesial cases risks obscuring the true scope of a crime that affects society as a whole.
Referring to official reports, Archbishop Sanz Montes emphasizes that the majority of abuse cases occur in non-religious contexts: within families, schools, sports organizations, residential care facilities, and other civil institutions.
According to Archbishop Sanz Montes, if the true goal is justice for all victims, then governments and public institutions should assume responsibility for abuses that occurred under their oversight or within their spheres of competence.
Furthermore, the Archbishop argues that a society that trivializes sexuality, weakens moral reference points, and allows unrestricted access to harmful material - such as …ད་རུང་།

The Trump administration is ending Temporary Protected Status for Somalians in the United States.
TPS allows individuals from a country where war or other forms of unrest are taking place to remain in the United States when they would not be eligible to be admitted through other immigration programs.
The Department of Homeland Security said TPS for the group ends March 17.
“Temporary means temporary,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said, according to Fox News.
“Country conditions in Somalia have improved to the point that it no longer meets the law’s requirement for Temporary Protected Status.”
Fox noted that Somalis have been covered by TPS since 1991.
“Further, allowing Somali nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is contrary to our national interests,” Noem said.
“We are putting Americans first.”
