Life Site News ‘Tridentine spirituality’ will save the world
Catholic theologian David Torkington urges Catholics to return to traditional ‘Tridentine spirituality’ as the answer to the rampant selfishness gripping the world after Vatican II. Torkington asserts that contemplative prayer rooted in the ancient Jewish “Shema” of Israel — finding full expression in the Council of Trent and the Tridentine Mass — has the power to transform our world and return to first principles: total love and fidelity to God.
