We cannot profess faith in 'spiritual Rome' without thereby professing faith in the real Rome of clerical intrigue and compromise. The Rome of the martyrs and doctors and confessors is still with us. You can get on an aeroplane and go there. A cursory reading of the history of the Popes will convince anyone that the martyrs and doctors and confessors have always rubbed shoulders with ecclesiastical pimps and prostitutes and charlatans in that same City. This goes for the rest of the Church.
Original sin is still alive and well.
Our faithfulness to the traditional rites of the Church is not some mere aesthetic preference, not some liturgical purism, but is felt as a deep conscientious imperative, a work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. As such it ought, and often does, carry with it discernible fruits of that same Spirit. This conscientious striving for the traditional liturgy, nevertheless, often results in direct, though unintended, conflict with pastors and within religious communities and within parishes. What is more unfortunate is that this conflict occurs at precisely that point of the Christian life that should be a source of fraternal unity and brotherly love, the Sacrament of Charity itself. There is, of course, no easy answer, but the lives of the saints and the history of the Church again provide us with some indications of how to act.
