With the assessments of the Traditional Latin Mass, it has now become cliche that the Latin Mass attracts young people.
The fact today, eighteen years after Summorum Pontificum, is that there are a million young people worldwide who were conceived and born from the Traditional Latin Mass ambiance. They come from the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM)! being the fruit of the marriages of the TLM adherents. They are fruits of the Traditional Mass. The Catholic Tradition gave them their very existence, from their devout parents. This is a very palpable sociological fruit of the Catholic Tradition. Tradition is fruitful, it begets children, prolific children...good fruit. And it is therefore not completely accurate to the present 2025 circumstance to generalize and say that the young people today come to the Church through the Latin Mass. That is true, but it must not ignore the great fact that there is a substantial body of young people today that were born and raised in the TLM. They did not come to it. They were always in it, from their mothers' wombs. Every Traditional baptism since 1970 tells the lie to the claim that the young people today have had no experience of the Traditional Latin Mass. There's a million of them in the world. And they are being baptized as infants daily, adding to their number.
What increases this fact of the young fruit of the TLM is that the vast majority of Traditional Catholics believe the Catholic religion and strive to follow it, and therefore, those who are married tend to have children, as God has ordained it, without sinning to prevent the conceptus. A dozen kids in a Traditional family is not unnormal but quite common, admired, encouraged and applauded, and generally very successful in passing on the faith to all of the progeny, including the fruitfulness of the faith! Good tree, good fruit; bad tree, bad fruit, says the Lord! And one of the chief characteristics of good fruit is that it bears its seed within it, it itself bears much fruit, much good fruit! Children of good families tend to produce good families themselves. We are witnesses of this, this basic truth of the Gospel. It is a very palpable manifestation of the truth of the Gospel, that it actually works! The good produces more good!
Good fruit is fruitful, bad fruit is sterile! Holy Marriage gives life! Faggotry kills!
"Every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down, and shall be cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them."
