bornacatholic,

In case you haven't noticed, Rome has been over-run with the enemy. As such, expect the enemy to contradict the teaching of the perennial magisterium at every opportunity while suppressing, twisting and belittling the authentic traditional teachings.

If I may be allowed to add my two cents?

This is precisely why we must keep Jesus Christ as the head of the church. We are members of His body. We are the temple of the Holy Spirit, as individuals. A personal relationship with Him is what Adam lost with his disobedience, which was reestablished for us by Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross.

Spending personal time with Him in a Cathedral or just as good, in a park, is what He desires. Mary, the sister of Martha, chose to sit at Christ's feet. In so doing she was transformed into a worker of the will of God, sacrificing her perfume to fulfill prophecy regarding the sweet smell Christ had on the cross. She got it because she was attentive in her relationship with Jesus, whereas Martha missed her opportunity being to overly busy to be transformed first, then work next.

Oh how the traditions of men come between us and our Lord. Be we transformed by the renewing of our minds and the washing of His Word.

God Bless you brother, and I pray your closeness to Jesus Christ becomes your priority in life!
