Two years after Pope Benedict XVI issued Summorum Pontificum, giving every priest the right to say Holy Mass according to the Usus Antiquior (1962 Missal) Georgetown University's Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate surveyed Catholics in America. What they found is only a small group of Catholics oppose the Latin Mass (12%). Why any Catholic would oppose the opportunity for others to worship in a more spiritually rewarding and externally revernent manner is not known at this time. Of those Catholics who actually attend weekly Mass, 45% would attend the Usus Antiquior if offered at a convenient time and location.
