" Judging from the piece it's an accurate enough description. Seems like a counterfeit Catholicism to me.
Funny, you think I'M low for posting this--and not a word from you about the bishop presiding over this
travesty. "

Judging from the post, a detached observer could NOT say
"counterfeit Catholicism." I seriously doubt "grape
juice" was used, as that is not a norm for mass. I expect
the "reporter" was about as accurate as a two-dollar
watch. Bishops and priests take THOSE sorts of things
very seriously about what is consecrated, as they do not
care for their bishop's boot to give them a kick in the
behind. And bishops do not usually like to get sent out
to the remotest part of Siberia, as a general rule of
thumb either.

Under no circumstances take Ultima Ratio seriously, except when he's defending the President.

UR belongs to a sect whose leadership has been excommunicated. He'll deny that, but it's true.

And, he'll tell you that, by attending a Novus Ordo Mass, you're attending something bastardized, less than holy, less than good for your soul.

It's goofy, but, that's our UR.

You're new, but don't let him intimidate you. He's really harmless, and clueless.
