and sadly, this week my diocese is declaring bankruptcy due to all the "allegations"......

But whose fault is that - really? There shouldn't be ONE, SINGLE person in ANY of these 'new order' parishes. When they open the doors for 'new order', you should be able to hear the crickets. No one complains. No one asks - what's a sanctuary? No one asks - altar girls, what the . . ? No one looks twice at an 'EM'. You play the devil's game, it won't be fair.

Traditional Catholicism is what Catholicism was even as late as the 1960s, in places. That's where everyone should be. That's what you should see at ALL the local parishes. And that's it.

Otherwise - don't complain.

The destruction of Traditional Catholcism and the homosexual infestation of the clergy both have one root cause: acquiesence on the part of the faithful.

You touched upon a very important point - not merely that Trad Catholicism is the way it should be, but the fact that the laity were asleep.......stupid.........too willing to "go along to get along"........were sold and firmly believed that ceasless change was not only normal but was approved and expected of them.

We, the laity, share a lot of the blame, because we did not as one rise up and say NO to the changes.......to the effeminancy of the priests........to the stealing of the money........to the preaching/teaching of heresy/erro/apostacy to ouy children......and becuase we gleefully swallowed the whole bitter pill.....and then were so happy, that we sang hymns about it!

On many levels - for our spiritual sleep and unquestioning unfaith - we hav gotten what we deserved!

It's one thing to advocate the old rite, but you justify disobedience to the Magisterium on the grounds that *you personally* think it's wrong.
