"John-Paul has done a good job of spreading the faith with the Catechism."
Not true. Hardly anybody reads the thing. It is a manifesto, in fact, of the revolution and departs in significant ways from preconciliar texts. Its ambiguities and murkiness mimicks the documents of Vatican II--and is just as radical.
To say the Pope has "done a good job" is absurd. He was the one who appointed the mediocrities we have as bishops. He is the one who has allowed the traditional faith to collapse in the ways described by this article.
The truth is the author blinked and could not bring himself to tell the complete truth. There could have been no revolution if it had not been for the weakness and/or the willingness of the popes in the postconciliar decades. JPII willingly went along with the destruction. He still goes along with it--the revolution is his agenda.
"Nowhere is this revolutionary dedication to "any direction but that from whence we came" more evident than among the American bishops."
Sadly this author seems to have swallowed the Amchurch propaganda. In fact, the American bishops (bad as they are) are far more tradition-minded than many of their counterparts in Europe (including the Vatican).
"The banal liturgies, weak catecheses and spineless bishops they have grown up around, bear little resemblance to the Church that inspired holy missionaries and martyrs in generations past."
In short, the post-conciliar period has seen the development of an entirely new religion - still calling itself "Catholic".
