The deceased Austrian cardinal Alfons Stickler was a large friend of the old persons fair. The Erzdiözese Vienna suppressed this special request of the deceased. Even anti-church media concerns were more objective. Press fragment.

The Pope condoles

„Benedikt XVI. Alfons Maria Stickler, Archivar and emeritierter librarian of the Roman church sent two Kondolenzschreiben for the death of the 97jährigen of cardinal: one to brothers and sisters of the deceased of cardinal and the general-upper the Salesianer Don Boscos, Pater Pascual Chavez Villanueva. The holy father describes the cardinal as a” sincere and eager “coworker of the holy chair. […] He mentioned also the cultural and church commitment of the outstanding lawyer and well-known cardinal. “

From the daily report of medium of the press hall of the holy chair.

Divorce of the spirit

„Extremely rejecting the conservative traditionalist Stickler expressed itself to the hierarchy-critical `KirchenVolksBegehren' in Austria. The cardinal, who was a vehement proponent of the vorkonziliaren tridentinischen measuring rite, said at that time literally, a” rebelling “is directed against the Pope and” against the nature of our faith “. Also the conscience of the particular must subordinate itself to the authority of the teaching profession. “

From a report of the anti-church Austrian daily paper `Standard'.


Since seventy years priests

„In the last years cardinal Alfons Maria Stickler lived withdrawn in its dwelling in the palace of the Glaubenskongregation. But the native Austrian could look back on a moving life in the service of the church. As the second of altogether twelve children 1910 in nine-churches born, Stickler entered after the Abitur the medal of the Salesianer Don Boscos. After its theology study, among other things in Turin and Rome, he attained a doctorate to the papal Lateranuniversität to the doctor of both rights. [To 27. March] it was then dedicated to 1937 to the priest. “

Tendencious reporting

„During its term of office Stickler used itself untiringly for the preservation and modernization of the Vatikan library, which is not only considered as storage area of the world-wide richest collection at handwriting (approximately 70,000), but also one million of printed books, approximately 150,000 copper passes and an extremely valuable Münzsammlung enclosure. Among other things under the line of the Austrian cardinal a large shelter was established, in which the most important treasures of the library - among other things `the Codex Vaticanus' - are accommodated. “

From the press text of the Erzdiözese Vienna. The text suppresses earnings/services of the cardinal for the old person fair.

Also earnings/services

„I am proud that Austria brought a personality out with the moral authority such as cardinal Stickler, which strove also in devoted way around the Rome pilgrims. “

A old-ritual requiem celebrates cardinal Stickler

Aleph: Personal decision

Clarissa Colonia @Dazu I would like to express myself not further. I think times that there is two completely different levels. If cardinal Stickler preferred the extraordinary rite, its personal decision is, needs not into any atom bomb safety program to be built and should not also kreuz.net - editorship the fingers against it wund to rub. That is at this time all the same for the died cardinal also completely. Over it probably on completely different levels one advises, if at all. + Amen +

clarissa colonia: Rather א

Now, it has already somewhat reißerisches to call the fair. Nevertheless: Ists sie's about not? So far believed I, that by the Hl. Fair (whatever Ritus' always, main thing gültg) worked welfare to that extent even is that it by nothing more destroyed or will entrissen could. Do I have to rethink there? Is about by the Mitfeier of a novus ordo fair (a terrible word; to LTI observations: It was noticeable already times that none exists linguistically and essentially satisfying conceptual distinction between „older “and „“to fair more again; perhaps a reference to that one cannot divide the Hail and the mediated like mediating grace?) not, while that is „the old “fair it?

Already again questions over questions.

Aleph: Atom bomb surely

clarissa colonia@ to me it concerned to present the linguistic comingness: Which has the fair to do is it NOM or the extraordinary fair really with atom bomb security. Which is thereby is stated, cardinal Stickler was atom bomb for the extraordinary fair. That is for my terms linguistic comingness, which should not take the liberty an editorship. What is? That is majority procurement by LTI oriented language pictures. Thus also completely large Bouleward newspapers make it. Little text, but sharp pictures and if it is the largest Schmonzes. Main thing the edition rises.

clarissa colonia: Rather א

Viktor Klemperer with its linguistic observations to quote may have its attraction, is here however not relevant, because the totalitarian character of the LTI he fastened my knowledge nevertheless at its creeping increasing act of violence; a characteristic, which hardly applies to open realizing of Vulgarismen in this forum. Or?

more r.ruhrgebietler: @M.v.L. - make I!

Cardinal Stickler to an honouring memory also within the catholic tradition target it nevertheless have!

Guiseppe: Bernd current mountain - full agreement!

Thanks for your clear words.

Enclosed a quotation by S. Em. Cardinal Stickler from 27. the 11. 2004: „The results of the reform are judged today of many as devastating. It was the merit/service of the cardinals Ottaviani and Bacci to have very fast found out that the radical change of the rite could lead to a deep break in the teachings. Fortunately is of hl. Pope Pius Vth regulatory latin fair never forbidden: Priests and believer can feed themselves there at the source of the Lex orandi and live in such a way in loyalty to the Lex credendi. “
