But it is so difficult to believe that in the face of so much evidence of his malice and his animus delendi, his desire to destroy the Roman Catholic Church.
"...We invite you to retract, to correct yourself and to cease from inflicting wounds upon the church of Christ". The most powerful part.
Paul VI inflicted more wounds upon the Catholic Church than any pope or bishop in history. Look at his "fruits".
Jesus said, "To whom much is given, much is expected." Paul VI and JPII were given supreme power in the Catholic Church. They have made incredible messes. No two men are more responsible for the wounds inflicted on Christ's Church than they.
Only if "powerful" is a synonym for "mind-boggingly hypocritical." Pope Paul VI inflicted wounds on the Church that will never heal this side of the day of judgement. He suppressed the traditional Catholic Mass. He signed all the documents of Vatican II. He presided over the wholesale destruction of entire orders of priests and nuns. He initiated the wholesale apostasy of entire Catholic nations in Europe and Latin America. He allowed the new morality which led to virtually all Catholics living in a state of mortal sin. Pope Paul VI took an axe to the roots of the Holy Roman Catholic Church. For him to accuse Archbishop Lefebvre is beyond comprehension.
