Brigitte Bardot lamented “Satanic” drift of Modern Catholic Liturgy In a 2024 interview the French movie star who died on Sunday lamented the modernisation of the liturgy and expressed hope that Catholic worship would "regain greater respect and importance." "I would describe myself as a traditionalist Catholic," she said. Brigitte Bardot, the French movie star who died on Sunday aged 91, expressed concerns last year about the state of the Catholic Church and the modern Mass, and spoke fondly of the traditional Latin Mass of her childhood. Asked by Clémence Nava of Aleteia for her view of Catholicism today, she replied: “I feel that Mass has lost some of its mystery, a certain warmth of soul. When I was a child, I attended church with my parents every Sunday. I remember the sense of mystery that emanated from that magnificent place. “The priest celebrated with his back to us, in Latin. It’s such a pity that this was modernized. Celebrating Mass facing the congregation feels to me like a theatrical performance. I would describe myself as a traditionalist. I’d like to see Catholic worship regain greater respect and importance. “There are so many people of good will and deep faith who no longer practice. So many churches are closed… You can’t even go in to pray. It’s tragic. “And when I think of Notre-Dame burning… it’s as if we are living in a satanic, negative, destructive era.” Elsewhere in the September 2024 interview Bardot said that although she was not practicing her faith, she was proud to be Catholic. “Faith is within me, no more and no less than before. I have faith,” she said, and revealed that she had a “very small oratory” on her estate in Saint-Tropez which gave her “wonderful peace.” Bardot also revealed she had a strong devotion to Our Lady, saying she liked to “speak to her directly” rather than through an intermediary. remnantnewspaper.com
