Haven't you had the feeling lately, when attending a Mass that you might have inadvertantly stepped into the wrong church??

Well not lately, but that's because I haven't attended a New Mass in a long time. But every time that I read or see anything about a New Mass or the post-conciliar Church (like the diocesan newspaper they insist on mailing to my house even though I don't want it), I get the distinct feeling that I'm in the "wrong church," and I don't just mean the building. I get the distinct feeling that the post-conciliar church is now one more branch of protestantism -- there are Methodist protestants and Lutheran protestants and Baptist protestants, and now there are Catholic protestants -- they are all now different sects of protestantism. They look like protestants, they act like protestants, they believe like protestants, why not call a spade a spade?

It's the one house fits all religions New Church. They don't want to let go of the One True Faith because they can't take His Church with them.

On their own, they might last a year or two before each bishop independently decides he's got to be the main man.

Its an ego thing, not a worship thing. No god or a false god - no matter - the only focus is who's number one. Born in hell, and perish in hell. It's a matter of time.....His time.
