Don’t laugh. He could be the next.
VII rot indeed.
It is more than the Mass. Vatican II wasn’t solely about the Mass.
The form of the mass is prescribed by the Church. There is no shortage or withholding of graces to the Church, the clergy, to you or to me related to the form of the mass. The first masses by the Apostles themselves were not said in Latin, Greek possibly, Aramaic certainly but not Latin. Surely you don’t believe that God ‘withdrew’ graces from the Apostles for using the vernacular language they understood for mass? Its no different with us where the TLM is concerned. I agree it should have ALWAYS been a valid, often used form. I don’t agree that whatever the Church decided to do with it diminishes the graces God sheds on the Church, not for a minute.
You need to read up on the changes in the New Mass. They didn’t just change to the vernacular language.

Archbishop of New York
Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, released the following comment today on the 2015 Saint Patrick’s Day Parade:
“The Saint Patrick’s Day Parade Committee continues to have my confidence and support. Neither my predecessors as Archbishop of New York nor I have ever determined who would or would not march in this parade (or any of the other parades that march along Fifth Avenue, for that matter), but have always appreciated the cooperation of parade organizers in keeping the parade close to its Catholic heritage. My predecessors and I have always left decisions on who would march to the organizers of the individual parades. As I do each year, I look forward to celebrating Mass in honor of Saint Patrick, the Patron Saint of Ireland, and the Patron Saint of this Archdiocese, to begin the feast, and pray that the parade would continue to be a source of unity for all of us.”
Regards,

Twenty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 127
Reading 1 Ez 33:7-9
Thus says the LORD:
You, son of man, I have appointed watchman for the house of Israel;
when you hear me say anything, you shall warn them for me.
If I tell the wicked, “O wicked one, you shall surely die, ”
and you do not speak out to dissuade the wicked from his way,
the wicked shall die for his guilt,
but I will hold you responsible for his death.
But if you warn the wicked,
trying to turn him from his way,
and he refuses to turn from his way,
he shall die for his guilt,
but you shall save yourself.
Gospel Mt 18:15-20
Jesus said to his disciples:
“If your brother sins against you,
go and tell him his fault between you and him alone.
If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.
If he does not listen,
take one or two others along with you,
so that ‘every fact may be established
on the testimony of two or three witnesses.’
If he refuses to listen to them, tell the church.
If he refuses to listen even to the church,
then treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax collector.
Amen, I say to you,
whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven,
and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Again, amen, I say to you,
if two of you agree on earth
about anything for which they are to pray,
it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name,
there am I in the midst of them.”

It certainly won't be Dolan's, "Who am I to judge?" boss.
Why would Dolan continue to pray for unity with fudge packers?
Thank you so much! I’ll enjoy reading it.
It is he who is encouraging these things to happen. But let’s just keep focusing on the big, bad bishops and ignore the elephant in the room (a la Michael Voris).
