That's funny.
His name is spelled Lefebvre, but anyway.

From Lituriam Authenticam: 3. The liturgical renewal thus far has seen positive results, achieved through the labor and the skill of many, but in particular of the Bishops, to whose care and zeal this great and difficult charge is entrusted. ....

The real "black humor" here is the section of the quote dealing with the labor and skill of many, but in particular bishops, to whose care and zeal... etc.

Are these the very same enabler bishops who as shephards watched as thousands upon thousands of innocents were ravaged by wolves (eg priests as homosexual perverts and pedophiles) and stood by as liturgists diluted the Mass of Ages into nothing more than a "humanistic, but vernacular, gathering session" while devoted Catholics left the church in droves?
It is especially funny how entire dioceses are pleading guilty of complicty in civil charges and scandals as they dodge payments to victims by declaring bankruptcy and closing parishes? Yeah, how humorous. Add to this the desecration of hundreds of parish churches into worship spaces with the removal of anything bordering on sacredness, kneelers, and statues of St. Joseph, the Family Protector, and Mary the Spouse of the Holy Ghost. While tabernacles are removed to a side altars or side closets.

We now see less than 20% of the "faithful" attend Sunday Mass, fewer still even believe in the true presence. Vocations are at an all time low -- except in the Traditional Latin rite priestly seminaries which are bursting at the seams.

Yes, what a legacy the last forty years has brought...
And so very, very funny, huh?

I know you would like to hijack this thread to attack traditional Catholics ... And here you go... encouraging the exodus of heretical individuals who excitedly threw-in with the schismatic lefevbre.

I must be Carnac.

Accusing people falsely is calumny. People who repeatedly commit calumny (and do not repent) don't get to heaven, no matter how good they are are hugging and kissing during the sign of peace in the NO.

Here's another thing I know, you're going to do everything you can to avoid answering this challenge:

Now if you would like to make an argument that the NO more accurately reflects the faith of the Church[than the TLM] I'd be most interested to hear how you think it does.

So far I'm 2 for 2.
