For the record, I think in my previous posts I never made the specific blanket statement that the NO was totally invalid. I hinted that my opinion might lean in that direction. I also referred to the "Ottaviani intervention", and his claims along with Cardinal Bacci. I indicated that numerous other competent, level-headed theologians made serious inquiry into this issue.
I suggested that perhaps it is a matter which Catholics should explore and research for themseelves. But there is one thing in particular which I did state as verifiyable fact.
That the Novus Ordo Missae is contrary to what is actually written in and mandated by the document on the liturgy written by the council father....contrary to the intentions of the majority of the bishops at the council. There is nothing to argue about here.......its all in black & white......with all of the beloved documents of Vatican II. Readily available to the curious reader.
But for saying this, and indicating that there exists this very real issue.....that it is a controversial matter affecting the faith, which thinking Catholics should look into...........I am called names? I am told to "back off"?
Are we going to have book burnings next?
Neither did I but facts don't matter.
Are we going to have book burnings next?
No, they advocate body burnings.
Parsing like Clinton. Your words were clear, thorski.

Ottaviani recanted his "intervention."
