Luther turned the altars around, threw out the Offertory and made the Mass a memorial meal. His idea was revolution. This is exactly the agenda of the New Church.
Traditionalists adhere to the true religion. They practice the Catholic faith. They do not worship themselves instead of God. They do not pretend the Real Presence has no reality. They do not shunt aside tabernacles and outlaw kneeling for communion. They don't make their seminaries pleasure grounds for perverts. They don't have their seminarians study Kung and Schillebeeckx instead of the Church Fathers. They don't give Jews a pass on needing Christ as their redeemer. They don't apologize to mullahs for not surrendering the West to the sword of Islam. They are Catholics in very good standing indeed-- because they stand with the perennial Church going back two thousand years. They are at one with that Sacred Tradition. This New Church is not.
I can see where you have a problem with this. You are not known for your intelligent comments--which are, for the most part, silly when they are not being gratuitously vicious.

BTW, don't forget we are reserving post #666 for Zvdiast. Don't get too greedy. Although you deserve that post as well, his name does begin with "Z"
Sorry<>
