I still am very much a proponent of the beautiful Tridentine Mass.

But I am also a Catholic and I believe that the Church knows best.

Should I ever change my mind, I can always leave. But where can I go — she has the words of life?

Having suffered through many interpretations of the proceedings and many abominations, not the least of which I consider to be the “music” they bring in, in favor of the beautiful traditional music, Western music at its origin, some argue, I have come to realize, and teach, that it is the Eucharist that is the center.

All else either takes away or adds to that. After we see the end of all of this horror, perhaps having stemmed from the Church in the West misguidedly working with local govts in economics (using them to enact social justice) the Church, knowing best, as you say, will attend to the mass as need be.

I agree completely. This woman has taken her eyes off the cross...forgotten to be humble beneath the feet of God and let her ego lead her to the conclusion that she is a better judge of Popes than the men the holy spirit has actually tasked for the job.

I wonder how long it has been since she made an honest confession?
