Pope Benedict’s red thread

Whoever laments that Pope Benedict did not do more for the good cause, that he used his papal authority too sparingly, in all realism let him ask himself who among the cardinals with realistic chances to become pope would have done more for the old rite than he did.  For whenever we have the good fortune to participate in a traditional Mass, we will have to think of Benedict XVI.
