| MyrnaM said: | SJB his quote awhile back==>""there are basically two types of "Catholics": those who are happy with the "changes" and those who are not. Of the latter group, some if not most have joined some sort of resistance "movement" at least in their minds. The first group is not Catholic, and I have no concern with them, though I hope and pray for their conversion to the Truth as I do for all unbelievers. They are not members of the Church..."
So are you flip flopping, or am I misunderstanding where you really stand on this, or do you still believe that a baptised catholic who is happy in the novus ordo, is really not a catholic at all? Just curious! |
Myrna, I was quoting someone, and that someone said "happy with the changes," in other words they accept and like the changes. Do you think these people are identifiable as Catholics?
This doesn't mean all those stuck in the NO are non-Catholics.

It would be comparatively easy for us to be holy if only we could always see the character of our neighbours either in soft shade or with the kindly deceits of moonlight upon them. Of course, we are not to grow blind to evil for thus we should speedily become unreal; but we must grow to something higher, and something truer, than a quickness in detecting evil. - Fr. Faber

Precisely. I am a member of a Sedevacantist Parish - I was Baptised in 1956 well before Vatican II so am I a Catholic or a Sedevacantist?

You are a wide awake Catholic isn't that what the latin "sede vacante" means?

"I receive Thee, redeeming Prince of my soul. Out of love for Thee have I studied, watched through many nights, and exerted myself: Thee did I preach and teach. I have never said aught against Thee. Nor do I persist stubbornly in my views. If I have ever expressed myself erroneously on this Sacrament, I submit to the judgement of the Holy Roman Church, in obedience of which I now part from this world." Saint Thomas Aquinas, the greatest theologian in the history of the Church
