"Evil must not be hidden, it must be in the open, discovered, as some of the abused did with courage … so that the abuser is judged, whether they be a layman or a laywoman, a priest or a bishop, that they be judged. The word of God is clear."
That language drew applause, but on another front, the Pope's treatment of the role of women in the Church, some Belgians weren't so pleased.
During the Sunday Mass, every time a woman took the microphone, some women in the crowd stood dressed in white as a protest over the refusal to ordain female priests.
The gesture came a day after the Catholic University of Louvain publicly upbraided Francis for expressing positions on the role of women it called "deterministic and reductive".
Remember how women on twitter were saying that they don't want to infiltrate all the male-only spaces
He also condemned instances when "a woman wants to be a man" – remarks that drew criticism from the university itself, and from students in attendance.
Woman, am I right, fellas?

The Latin Mass is not just "saying mass but using Latin", it's a whole different liturgy/ceremony, with chanting and stuff that doesn't exist in modern Novus Ordo masses. they like it because it feels more religious to them I guess. personally I understand the way they feel about it because it does feel a lot more mystical and spiritual, but they take it way too far by outright trashing modern mass which isn't nearly as bad as they say it is. they constantly insult the music that gets sung in mass nowadays but when I was growing up I loved those songs, a lot of people like the music in Novus Ordo and there's nothing wrong with that.

The people who trash Novus Ordo act like the Pharisees (which is very comparable to the Puritans in Protestantism) they act like they are superior based on what they think rather than how God works.
