This pope lives in a mythical world.  He has so little support from faithful priests.  

He may have some lingering support from the aging 1960s vocations,..and from a 'mustering' of over-refined priests...but few of the JPII era or Benedict era priests.

That leaves him with a  few handfuls of cardinals and bishops that St Peter Damian warned us about.

Most priests today have to gingerly remind their parishioners that a Holy Day is coming up!  That's about the extent of the "obligations" this pope could actually find substantiation for his sad rant.

How many rants a week must we endure?

Let's offer them up cheerfully for the health of his successor. 

Going to Mass is an act of love...or at least should be.
