That’s just it: it isn’t just a verse/teaching here or there. To continue to be blind to that fact is not living true Catholicism.

But, like you said, you can lead a horse to water.....

You are correct... there are many many verses and sentences that are held up as incorrectness against the true faith.
The inconvenient truth is that 60 years ago the Church saw a world quite different from ours.
And part of that truth is the undeniable fact that the voting of the Bishops of the Church was basically unanimous on about 10 of the documents. Average Voting tally for those was about 2250-7.The other documents saw more nays...the 5 documents from 35 no's to 88...(against 2200 avg. Yays)
Fun fact: The the most hotly contested document passing with a vote of 1960- 164. And was that hotly contested document??
The Decree on MEDIA and Sovial Communication.
IRONY ALERT: The modernist council saw its most opposition to the use of MODERN MEDIA !!
as described:

The importance of press, film, radio and television for the evangelization of the world is officially recognized. Guidelines should be issued for their proper use. Evaluation of secular production should be raised to a higher level. The responsibility of lay people is emphasized; they will be more heavily counted upon in staffing the Church's media reviewing organization.

Truly revolutionary stuff there !
There was no opposition on how the Council handled abortion, normalization of homosexuality, gay marriage, Transgenderism, homosexual Priests or the clergy sex abuse scandal.
Maybe overlooked, but convenient fortoday as the Council serves to be blamed for all of the societal disintegration that has occurred. Go figure.

All To continue to be blind to that fact is not living true Catholicism

If those Church leaders, running the Church 60 years ago..(most ordained in the 1920s,30s and 40s - Traditional Bishops way before Vat 2 happened) if these guys in basically unanimous fashion didnt know what the hell THEY were doing back then since they were living it- what the heck is "True" Catholicism anyways...

IF they got it wrong then- Then they HAD IT WRONG then..

Turn back the clock to that? Can anyone be do clueless as to not know the emerging rot in the 1950s Catholic Church?
