By which you derisively refer to Catholics.
However, if the proposed 'universal indult' is merely a longterm and backdoor strategy to eventually transform The Mass into Bugnini's service, then expect many to object, as they do now - to 'new order'. That's just how it is. Expect Catholics to behave no differently. We love God and His Church. We may not always be perfect in our lives. We may need confession. But we do esteem what is holy. We consider it vitally important. Deride THAT all you like.
you dump on the Luminmous Mysteries
I'm very critical of RVM, of the falacious and contradictory reasoning used, and of the earnestness with which is was suddenly adopted - some websites even omitting mention that this was a new 'Rosary', as if by that to imply that this was the Rosary of the great battles, and the councils and the Saints.
I doubt very much whether you realize how far you have distanced yourself from the successor of Peter
That's very easy to answer - isn't it? What do YOU . . know about St. Peter? What do you know about the Apostles? What do you know of the Church Fathers? Do you care? The councils? You care?
I do. That's your answer. And you have to answer it for yourself.
Touchy. I'm referring "derisively" to nobody. If that appears to be the case, then I apologize. When I said "people such as yourself", I was referring to people who themselves talk about the Pope in overly critical and derisive terms. As to whether you can do this and still be Catholic, that's best left to others to decide.
What do YOU . . know about St. Peter? What do you know about the Apostles? What do you know of the Church Fathers? Do you care? The councils? You care? I do. That's your answer. And you have to answer it for yourself.
My answer is to be loyal to the one whom the Holy Spirit has called to the Petrine office.
