アヴェ・マリア！

　兄弟姉妹の皆様、お元気でいらっしゃいますか。

　3月中旬の話しですが、国際ウナ・ヴォーチェの会長であるラルフ・ジーベンビュルガー博士（Doctor Ralf Siebenbürger, the President of Una Voce Federation）がローマに行き、ウナ・ヴォーチェを代表してエクレジア・デイ委員会（the Ecclesia Dei Commission）の長であるカストゥリヨン・ホヨス枢機卿と会ってきました。次は、ジーベンビュルガー博士が書いたその時の報告です。ご参考までにどうぞ。

Dear friends,

On March 13th, I was in Rome where I had the opportunity to make a tour through the Vatican Dicasteries. You surely will be interested in learning what I heard there. So, here is my report:

At first, I visited Msgr Perl in the ED Commission. He told me – and Card. Castrillon Hoyos afterwards repeated it - that the Holy See authorities have dropped any plan to create a proper jurisdiction for faithful who prefer the Ancient Rite (i.e. Apostolic Administration or something similar). According to Msgr Perl, these Officials are afraid of protests from the local bishops and bishops’ conferences. He also said that the Holy See was quite annoyed by Bishop Fellay’s press conference on february 2nd and the document published on ecumenism at that occasion by the FSPX.

Afterwards I made a short visit in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. His Eminence the Cardinal Prefect was not allowed to see me. My purpose there had to do with a local Austrian problem that the UV Austria had asekd me to bring to the Congregation of the Faith and which has no significance for the FIUV. I succeeded to present it to a person of the Cardinal’s personal staff.

Then, I met His Eminence the Cardinal President of the ED Commission in the Congregation for the Clergy. In my retenue were Dr. Riccardo Turrini Vita, President of UV Italia, Prof. Fabio Marino, President of the Coordinamento UV delle Venezie, Prof. Maurilio Cavedini, Chairman of UV Verona and the Right Honourable Federico Bricolo, Member of the Italian Parliament and of UV Verona. The three latter had a special problem of the Indult community at Verona which they brought the Cardinal to know in the last part of the audience. The Cardinal received us quite friendly and gave us a whole hour of his time. He made an emphasis that he loves the Ancient Rite which he had celebrated himself between his ordination in 1952 and 1965.

The Cardinal repeated that they dropped any idea to give us a proper jurisdiction. He mentioned that such a proper jurisdiction had only been granted to the Fraternity of St John Vianney at Campos, as the founder of that Fraternity, Bishop de Castro Mayer, had gone much farer than Archbishop Lefebvre. The Cardinal underlined that Archbishop Lefebvre had never founded a proper structure of his fraternity that could be considered as a concrete act of schism. In contrary, Bishop de Castro Mayer had founded a conter-diocese which had been a clear schism. In order to solve this schism, the proper jurisdiction had been granted to the Fraternity and to ist faithful at Campos. The Cardinal rejected the opinion to regard the Ancient Rite to be a rite for its own like f.e. the Byzantinian or the Armenian Rite. “There is only one Roman Rite”, underlined the Cardinal verbally, “and this Roman Rite has different forms.” So, according to him, the Ancient Rite is not a rite in its own right, but the Ancient Rite and the Novus Ordo are two forms of one and the same rite. In the same time, the Cardinal said that The Holy See is still looking for a solution for the easier application of the indult without granting us a proper jurisdiction, keeping in mind the above mentioned opinion.

With regard to our Irish friends: I mentioned what had happened at St Peter’s Basilica to Fr Nevin and announced the Cardinal that he would get a letter from Fr Nevin on this issue.

The Cardinal took this as an occasion to tell the reason why there are such enormous restrictions for the celebration of the Ancient Rite at St Peter’s Basilica: St Peter’s basilica is the very heart of the Church, he explained to us, and for that, there shall only one rite be celebrated in this basilica, and this is the rite that is celebrated everywhere in the Universal Church. And that is the Novus Ordo.

(These words seem to be somehow a self-contradiction to the Cardinal’s own words according to which both, the Nous Ordo and the Ancient Rite, were not two different rites, but one and the same rite. And besides, it is possible to remind that in 1992, the Holy Father has himself celebrated a Mass at St Peter’s at the Feast of the Ascention of Our Lord in the Mozarabian Rite.)

When I asked the Cardinal that every priest celebrating in Latin should have the free choice between the Missal of 1962 and the Missal of 1970, the Cardinal just spoke something about the authority of the local bishops.

As the audience had started at 11 AM, it was high noon at the end of our meeting. The Cardinal invited the UV delegation to pray the Angelus together with him and the whole staff of the Congregation for the Clergy. The Angelus was prayed in Latin.

Yours in Domino
Ralf Siebenbürger

感想:　これを読むと、ジーベンビュルガー博士も気が付いたようにカストゥリヨン・ホヨス枢機卿は、聖伝のミサも新しいミサも同じ一つの典礼様式である（だから聖伝のミサのための特別処置をすることが出来ない）、と言いながら、その直後にバチカンの聖ペトロ大聖堂で許されている唯一の典礼様式は新しいミサだけである（聖伝のミサは別の典礼様式だから許されない、聖伝のミサは新しいミサとは別の待遇を受ける）、と言い、その主張に一貫性がないように思われます。ジーベンビュルガー博士も言うように、聖ペトロ大聖堂では例えば1992年に教皇様ご自身がモザラブ典礼様式でミサを執行しています。

　ウナ・ヴォーチェの会長がカストゥリヨン・ホヨス枢機卿に全ての司祭が自分の選択するミサを新しいミサであれ聖伝のミサであれ自由に捧げることが出来るように、と要求すると、枢機卿は返答に困ってその地方の司教様と相談しなければならない、と言うだけでした。モンシニョール・ペルルもローマ当局は地方の司教たちや司教会議の抗議を恐れている、との回答をしています。

　ブラジル・カンポスのヴィアンネー会について、カストゥリヨン・ホヨス枢機卿は、本当の離教だったので固有の意味での裁治権がこの会に与えられた、しかし聖ピオ十世会は離教ではないので裁治権が与えられない、と述べています。

　「枢機卿は、私たち（ウナ・ヴォーチェ）に固有の裁治権を与えるという考えを全て捨てたと繰り返しました。枢機卿は、このような固有の裁治権はカンポスの聖ヨハネ・ヴィアンネー会にのみ与えられたが、それはその創立者であるカストロ・マイヤー司教が、ルフェーブル大司教よりももっと遠くへ行ってしまったからである、と言及しました。枢機卿は、ルフェーブル大司教は、具体的に離教行為と考えられ得るような聖ピオ十世会の固有の組織を決して創立しなかった、ということを強調しました。その反対に、カストロ・マイヤー司教は明らかに離教であった「対立教区」を創立した、この離教を解決するためにカンポスの聖ヴィアンネー会とその信者たちに固有の裁治権が与えられた、と言いました。」

　聖ピオ十世会の総長であるフレー司教は、実際、今年の2月2日にこう言っています。

　「私たちは、ローマとは別の位階制度を構成するのではない、私たちは補いの司教に過ぎない。」　（Nous ne constituons pas une hiérarchie parallè le, nous ne sommes que des évêques supplétifs.）

　私たちは、カストゥリヨン・ホヨス枢機卿が、聖ピオ十世会は離教ではないと言うことをはっきり言って下さっていることに感謝します。

天主様の祝福が豊かにありますように！

トマス小野田圭志神父　（聖ピオ十世会司祭）
