There are ambiguities and omissions in, and false translations of, documents of the recent council which have been used and misused by certain elements within the Church, with devastating results. Similarly, things never envisioned or commented upon by the council have been carried out, in the name of the council—the radical changes to the Sacred Liturgy, for instance. This has now gone on for four decades; one wonders if this will continue for centuries. It will, if we label those who raise the question as unfaithful, or those who object as dissenters. - Fr. Echert

I agree with this statement one hundred percent. It indicts the implementation of the Council and liberties taken in spite of it, not its substance. I also agree that we can't get further by labeling each other, and for that, I apologize and ask forgiveness for my uncharitable use of the phrase, "your ilk".

I appreciate that more than you know, and I whole heartedly accept your apology which demonstrates to me your basic good will even though we may disagree. Thank-you.
