Click on the last word of the piece - "too" - to see what I mean by that.<br /><br />Steve K has (I think) one or more independent moderators who may err on the side of "caution" on especially controversial subjects. Then again, as you say, the Discus interface can often be confusing - I've had troubling finding some of my comments as well.<br /><br />And, by the way, Kathleen, thank you so much for your kind comments on the other posts. I'm not sure whether you saw one of my replies, as it was pretty late. But thank you, again. I really appreciate it. May you have a restorative Sunday!Oakes Spaldinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08078500142758654392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1373152433565591514.post-8911987625365255712018-04-15T07:56:54.573-07:002018-04-15T07:56:54.573-07:00Did you write that Oakes?

There is a time for colorful language, when it works, let's face it.<br />I was disappointed to note that two times in the last so many weeks 1P5 has apparently (I could be in error) refused to print my comment that this church is all but dead. <br />What else would happen to any organization where the head and administrators are utterly devoted to it's redefinition and destruction? That is absolutely the case, and now we are all like hyenas, fighting and haggling over the carcass. I don't like that any more than anyone else, but it seems very true. We are in schism, can there really be any doubt? There are two distinct camps, orthodox and destroyers, we have no common ground anymore, what have we to do with them? All we lack, and will not likely get, is a Cardinal to declare him anathema, and that we should avoid him. We see it is not going to happen, bar divine intervention. But we've done it on our own, we didn't need a declaration, apparently. Yet we pity the poor ignorant, or envy them, I'm not sure which sometimes.<br />We're waiting on the Good Lord and Our Lady, we have naught else to hope for.<br />Carry on, Christian soldiers!Kathleen1031https://www.blogger.com/profile/10201084623185206141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1373152433565591514.post-22550520426986397312018-04-14T00:55:42.152-07:002018-04-14T00:55:42.152-07:00Well done Oakes.

However, yesterday two good things happened in the blog world. The Catholic Thing blog has a good article on the recent drastic falling off in Mass attendees due to Vatican II contrasted with the success of Traditional Catholicism.<br />https://www.thecatholicthing.org/2018/04/13/dinosaurs-on-the-move/<br /><br />Then One Peter 5 has an analysis of the errors and heresies in Vatican II which has in the nearly total Protestantization of the Church.<br />https://onepeterfive.com/the-points-of-rupture-of-the-second-vatican-council-with-the-tradition-of-the-church-a-synopsis/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Onepeterfive+%28OnePeterFive%29<br /><br />Vatican II has been a catastrophe for the Church and must be abrogated in it's entirety. And it is reasonable, I think, to pronounce the Vatican II Church dead. I say these words on the Crisis Magazine blog and it causes violent blow-back as most Catholics are unaware of how bad things are or that the real purpose of Vatican II was to Protestantize the Church. Note evidence below:<br /><br />"We must strip from our Catholic prayers and from the Catholic liturgy everything which can be the shadow of a stumbling block for our separated brethren; that is for the Protestants.”<br />- Archbishop Annibale Bugnini, L'Osservatore Romano, March 19, 1965<br /><br /> Michael Dowdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16650782589323136700noreply@blogger.com
