Yesterday (Friday, Feb. 14), Pope Francis held an audience<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>with the Bishops of the Czech Republic who came to Rome for their ad limina<\/em> visit.<\/p>\n

In the visit, as it usually happens in such cases, other than the formal address, the Pope heard the questions and coments of the bishops. Archbishop Jan Graubner, of Olomouc, told the Czech section of the Vatican Radio how it went:<\/p>\n

\n
[Abp. Jan Graubner speaks:] When we were discussing those who are fond of the ancient liturgy and wish to return to it, it was evident that the Pope speaks with great affection, attention, and sensitivity for all in order not to hurt anyone. However, he made a quite strong statement when he said that he understands when the old generation returns to what it experienced, but that he cannot understand the younger generation wishing to return to it. “When I search more thoroughly – the Pope said – I find that it is rather a kind of fashion [in Czech: ‘m\u00f3da’, Italian ‘moda’]. And if it is a fashion, therefore it is a matter that does not need that much attention. It is just necessary to show some patience and kindness to people who are addicted to a certain fashion. But I consider greatly important to go deep into things, because if we do not go deep, no liturgical form, this or that one, can save us.”<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
