>>Those who ignore it will be dealt with harshly, I predict.<<

You mean as has been done in past practice? LOL!

>>I don’t see in your attitude anything that will win people over to the Truth. I could be wrong. Is it your experience that sour and bitter work well to advance your goals?<<

And your Pollyanna attitude of “We’re fine, nothing to see here.” had been what has caused an entire generation of Catholics to have no clue what a proper Holy Mass looks like. In some ways one must Thank God for the Female Jesus in Denver that Mother Angelica saw. That lone person (and the libs that put her there) enlightened Mother to truly look at those VII documents and see that none of this “community centered” mass was called for.

Talk with one’s feet. Talk with one’s pocketbook. That’s what works.

I don’t have a pollyanna attitude.
I have a gospel attitude of thanksgiving and hope.

I simply mentioned that it is objectively wrong and harmful to use the labels “pre-Vatican-II” to mean “good” and “post-Vatican-II” to mean “bad”.

Your reaction was to go spew pessimistic rants about how terrible things are.

My counter-reaction was to note that we should be grateful and hopeful because our current pope is addressing these very issues quite clearly and forcefully.

Your reaction is that I am a clueless pollyanna.

Well, netmilsmom, whatever type of Mass you have at your parish, the good affect it has on you remains hidden. I suggest that now is the time to choose happiness.
