I was baptized and confirmed in 2009. I did not really convert from another religion as I was not practicing anything at the time.

As for my conversion to traditionalism, my RCIA was completed at a very liberal/modern parish. We were taught that Hell is empty, that no one really sins, women priests will happen within 10 years, etc. I had been reading the Catechism and when I discovered that everything they taught was different from what I was reading, I did some research and discovered the TLM and traditionalism.

I do see what you mean, Alexandria. But it's one thing to accuse the RCIA team of being wrong. It's a bigger step for me to say that Pope may be too. Pretty nerve-wracking stuff.

Look at it this way. The RCIA team wouldn't be teaching this heresy without the consent of the bishop. The bishop couldn't give the okay without the consent of the Vatican. Even if you complained, all they would do is make a pretense of admonishing whomever and continue on teaching the heresy. The only one who would get the boot is you.

It is all a big sham.

I am a cradle Catholic but we all need to always work on a "true conversion of heart" and grow daily in our Faith and thus in grace. True Devotion to Mary by St. Louis Marie Montfort is the best way to increase in this daily "conversion of heart", or in other words, working daily on giving up our own base natures to increase in love and union with Jesus through Mary. I have thought of starting a thread on this devotion (I know it has been brought up in other threads), but I have hesitated to start a thread by itself on True Devotion or as it's also called "Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary", because it is a devotion to take on very seriously (wholeheartedly) and so bringing it up on the world wide web, has the danger of throwing pearls to swine. I trust that those reading this post are serious about working out their salvation and growing in devotion to Jesus and Mary, so if indeed you are, read the book, if you haven't yet done so.
