Western Orthodoxy with Guest Fr. Patrick Cardine

Thank you so much for doing this interview! I think the Western Rite is going to be a big factor in redeeming the Catholic Church in the East. I look forward to hearing Fr Peter on your show in future. He did his diaconal year at my parish (St Patrick's in Columbus Ohio), and is back now.

Fr. Cardine should get a copy (15 Volumes) of Servant of God, Dom Prosper Gueranger's "The Liturgical Year". It is known as 'the Summa of the liturgy' (western of course). Dom G. breaks it all down by liturgical season and at the beginning of each liturgical season he explains:

The History...
The Mystery...
The Practices...

and this barely touches the surface of what he explains, he essentially becomes your in-home Priest; or in the case of someone like Fr. Cardine, an in-home/in-Parish consultant. In the Roman Rite I like to call it a blueprint for restoration of what was lost and not just what was lost Sunday to Sunday; but every single day of the liturgical year; even each segment of each day of the liturgical year; ---- he is right there at every segment of every day with the prayers and his commentery (even commentery on each prayer of each segment of the day tailored to the liturgical season).

Good interview! Glad I stumbled upon your channel Michael. Hope all is well. God bless.

At least he is honest enough to admit that the western rite is temporary and he is ready to brush off his Greek vestments and be a Byzantine. This makes perfect sense since the Antiochians have indeed made this demand of all of their western rite parishes in Great Britain, New Zealand, Australia, and the Philippines. Obviously a denomination limited to a single ethnic expression, and yet still calling itself Catholic, does not bother him too much.

I love Father Patrick Cardine, and I'm in no place of authority, but I really don't understand how Palamas and Aquinas are reconcilable. Not only was Barlaam, who held to Thomistic theology, condemned by the Church, but their theologies are fundamentally opposed. Thomism rejects the essence-energies distinction, which was upheld by countless fathers and the Ninth Ecumenical Council.

You have to get Fr. Patrick on again. Fascinating perspectives!

Do western rite orthodox pray the rosary???

Father Patrick is my pastor. It's kind of weird seeing him in his study on what is essentially 21st century television.

What is western rite ortgodoxy?

I think Western Orthodoxy will reinvigorate the Orthodox Church and bring about a renaissance. It will be a unifying force for good.

Get rid of the Protestant liturgy of “st. Tiknon”

Get rid of post schism practices like the monstrance, sacred hearts, and pews which aren’t consistent with orthodoxy. Many ROCOR western rite parishes don’t have pews. All of them are forbidden from doing the monstrance and the sacred hearts.

Is the Latin liturgy or rite being used in the WOC a pre Schism Tridetine Rite? Or are there several or different pre Latin/Western Liturgies being used? Thanks.

Wait so he won’t protect the Latin tradition either of his superiors say no more Latin mass?? That’s not reassuring.

Rev. Patrick should take the plunge and kiss the Pope's Ring. He is 75% there!

Gosh! Fr. Patrick is awesome! I pray for our reunification. ❤️💙

How many Western Rite Orthodox parishes are there in the US?

The Western Rite is beautiful

The Confession of St. Peter Mogila is the most comprehensive systematic theology of the Orthodox Church, I don’t care what Fr John Romanides and the 20th century “neo-patristic” movement says. Change my mind.

The Confession of Dositheus is the full Patristic Consensus of the Holy Fathers, both Greek and Latin, change my mind.
