Welcome to the long and arduous Catholics wars, with the "integrists" on the far right (to use the conservative Catholics' derogatory label for them) and the "neoCatholics" in the role of defending the post-conciliar Church (to use the traditionalists' derogatory label for conservative Catholics.)
Most Catholic threads here on this forum have degerated into ongoing battles between the trads and the conservative Catholics and the anti-Catholic protestants.
Often the trads and the anti-Catholic protestants use the same rhetoric.
Yes, it can be confusing. Its a sad state of affairs, but then so is the Church today in general.
