There is no unity in the post Vatican II church, but Catholic teaching is that unity is one of the traditional marks of the one True, Holy Catholic Church.

Which tradition?

Roman?

EO?

Ukrainian Catholic?

Byzantine?

Russian Orthodox?

Greek Orthodox?

Trent?

Vatican I?

So sorry that you went through such crisis. As for myself, I have not ever had the same experiences. My faith has become stronger through the years - which I credit soley to God’s grace through the sacraments of Confession and Holy Communion.

With this guy at the helm, people need to be scared away He seems to be a fake. They need to read their Bible and let Jesus lead them.

Jorge isn’t holy and he isn’t a father. He is a heretic and an enemy of Christ.

Exactly...Those who know the One, True, Holy Father, certainly wouldn't ascribe that title to a mere man...

I would add one more thing to this. Although there are different responses to Vatican II, the one thing that all responses to Vatican II have in common is that Vatican II contradicts the Magisterium that came before it.

That generation that lived thru the change is almost gone...Most now accept Vatican II as legitimate...If there is to be another Pope will he stick with Vatican II or continue the changes promoted by your current Pope???

Good question Iscool. I don’t have the answers. I pray that we get a true Catholic pope who will return to the pre-Vatican II Catholic Faith.

Thanks be to GOD for He has given you this voice to speak the Truth of The Gospel of Grace. When we stop striving to obtain that which GOD Promised to grace us with when we call upon the One Whom He sent for our Salvation, He keeps HIS Promise, immediately, and then raises us up in the Way that we should go, to the extent that we submit to HIS Parenting. I’m seventy-one, I have lived the ups and downs of submission. He never left me of forsook me. ‘Faithful is He that calleth you for He will also dop it.’ An institution cannot do what He does from the inside out.

Hmm, wrote that a little too quickly! "Faithful is HE that calleth you, for He will also do it."

I corrected myself quickly, so Sal would not have to do it.
