    AP Poll results: Would a universal indult be a good thing?

    *wow*

    I think the results speak for themselves (290-34-23).

    In addition to the 19 comments left in this thread, many people opted to email their comments in to me.

    Here are a few:

    "We love the Tridentine Mass! Message to Bishops: Let us have it-now!!!"

    "Doi! Yeah it's a good thing! Why do you even need to ask?!"

    "I voted yes as a matter of principle (though it could hardly be considered an indult in the strict sense), but I have reservations on the practical level. Most notably, I fear what may happen to this pearl of great price when unleashed on a largely undisciplined clergy (and faithful)."

    "Definitely. I attend the Tridentine [...] and it is packed with young families with little children. People are dressed appropriately, the liturgy is known and followed and there is a feeling of joy in having attended a Mass that is reverential in being in the presence of God and not a social gathering where, too often, the priest is the center of attention, rather than all facing the tabernacle."

    "Our organization [...] gave the results of the Gallup Poll on the Traditional Latin Mass to Pope John Paul II in 1992. Poll result was that 25% of Catholics polled would frequently or always attend the Tridentine Mass if it were in their local parish. We cannot count how many liturgical dropouts would return to the practice of the faith if this rite of Mass were restored. It is a matter of justice."

    ... and many more good comments. Thanks for the energetic participation!
