. . . Many of his criticisms could equally apply to frozen liberal modernists also. (aka those who are attached to the dust of their failed modernist theories.)    
What does it say about him that he chose to level criticism at tradition rather than modernism?

“Could equally apply?”  Am I correct to infer that you find his criticism of tradition correct and just?  And how is your assertion that “his criticisms could equally apply to frozen liberal modernists also” supposed to make traditionalists any fonder of him?  The goofy old effeminate commie chose to level criticism at traditionalists.

In attendance at that presentation and Mass were a devout Catholic mother and—compulsorily—her 16-year-old son. .............................Afterward, he thanked his mother profusely for having brought him to the Mass, exclaiming, “That was the most beautiful, the most sacred thing I have ever seen!” Not only his excitement, but his word choice caught my attention: “sacred.” That is not a word most teenagers use every day. It prompted me to ponder our natural search for truth and beauty.

I think it is a sad mistake to assume that young people want everything 'dumbed down' and 'modern' or that they want an easy moral path to follow.
My experience from the young women in our Church group is that many want a sacred path to follow, they want Mass to be special, other worldly and spiritual, as women the very much want to veil (and feel comfortable among other women who are veiled) and above all they want very strong and clear moral guidance.

I think that is true of all the young people. They all want very clear moral guidance. And when they don't receive it that is when they are in danger of falling away.
