You can tell that some of these souls really thirst for the Faith, but they are looking in the wrong place. It is good that they are taking things seriously, but c'mon... Ave Maria University? They need to open up another St. Mary's down there and have the TLM daily.

I liked the fact though that he would outlaw artificial birth control. I wonder if he has some kind of reservations about Vatican II.

Vatican II's "openness to the world" is why many (Novus Ordo) Catholics today use birth control.
They also watch TV, women wear pants and work outside the home (without necessity), live wastefully, etc. etc.
Which is why the life of your average Novus Ordo Catholic is indistinguishable from the pagans around them.
I know I repeat this to the point of nausea, but if you do EVERYTHING like the pagans around you -- except attend Mass (even the Traditional Mass) on Sunday, you can be sure that you will have all the same problems that "everyone else" has. Infidelity, teen rebellion, obesity, massive debt, divorce, unhappiness, ѕυιcιdє, psychological problems, you name it.
Just think about it! Does attending Mass on Sunday make us somehow immune to the physical laws of nature? Of course not.
I assure you that the TLM won't take away the affects of nature. If you watch TV, you will be brainwashed. If you use birth control and give your 2 or 3 kids the "suburban package", they WILL be spoiled/messed up. TLM or no TLM. That bit of wisdom I have witnessed personally as well as heard it from many older (and much wiser) men. That is why I'm so sure of myself about this one, and I'm so adamant about it.

Women wearing trousers is not on a par with using birth control!
Good grief! Many of the Pagan women around us wear skirts too!
And the Pagan men wear trousers! No wonder Catholic men are indistinguishable from them!

Groan! So close and yet so far. Brand new and already off track! Of course you break man's laws if they contradict God's. Another no brainer. But voila! They still didn't get it. Maybe we should just concentrate on the art of catacomb decoration.
