Lefebvrist Theology

Lefebvrist theology is rooted in the ideas of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, emphasizing the importance of traditional Catholic teachings, liturgy, and priestly authority. It advocates for preserving the Church’s pre-Vatican II doctrines and practices, often opposing modern reforms like the simplified liturgy and ecumenism. Lefebvrist thinkers believe that authentic Catholic identity is rooted in the Latin Mass and traditional doctrines, and they emphasize the importance of sacerdotal authority and doctrine over changing societal norms. In essence, it’s a conservative movement aiming to maintain what they see as the true, unaltered essence of Catholic faith and practice.
