the Vatican II Anti-council (1962-1965) eliminated priests and replaced them with Protestantized presbyters (ministers).
.
False. The Second Vatican Council did not eliminate priests, nor did it introduce Protestantized presbyters (ministers).
.
As usual, Traditio posts a litany of lies, spreading slander and misinformation.
.
Under the 1968 New Ordinal, there is no ordination of valid priests in the Sacrament of Holy Orders to "offer the Sacrifice of the Mass for the living and the dead," but merely the "installation" of unordained and invalid presbyters to "preside over the assembly of the people."
.
The 1968 novelties all took place 3 years after Vat.II had closed in 1965. There is nothing whatsoever in Vat.II docuмents regarding the "New Ordinal" or the change in Holy Orders (for Bishops and priests) that would occur beginning 3 years after the close of the infamous council.

In line with the elimination of priests in Newchurch, the Anti-council opened up the so-called "concelebration" of the New Mess by hoards of presbybters, as now one presbyter seems incapable of simulating Mess on his own. Not only does he need eucharistic ministresses and a cacophony of lectoresses, but also other presbyters.
False again. The council had nothing whatsoever in it regarding the elimination of priests or concelebration of Mass by multiple priests. It had not a single word regarding women as
"Extraordinary Eucharistic ministers" (the original terminology used for non-clerical distributors of the hosts and/or consecrated wine).
Now Francis-Bergoglio is imposing this condemned "concelebration" in the colleges and seminaries of Newrome. The Congregation for the [New]clergy is working secretly on a docuмent that will impose "concelebration" under the Protestant doctrine that "the celebration in community must always be preferred to individual celebration." Francis-Bergoglio in an April Fools' Day 2017 address, stated the purpose of such an imposition: "to overcome individualism." Tyrant Stalin couldn't have put it better! [Some information for this Commentary was contributed by the Newvatican Press Office.]
True Catholics, the phony New Order "Mess" isn't even a Mass. Newchurch defines it as an "assembly of the people," like a Mormon meeting. Thus, not even a presbyter is needed.
Condemned "concelebration" simply degrades the situation that much more. Presbyters aren't even individuals any longer. Rather, they are a Communist "collective," who can function only with other presbyters and laypeople. That is the pure Protestantism!
.
Notice the term
"Condemned concelebration" is eagerly employed while no reference is offered for who condemned it or when.
.
While it is true that these novelties came as a consequence to Vatican II, these topics were never voted on by the bishops attending the council and were not part of the council discussions. All Vat.II did was to "break the ice" in regards to beginning work on reforming the Roman Missal. But actually, that project had already begun before Vat.II had started, when St. Joseph was inserted into the erstwhile "untouchable" Canon of Mass, the reform of Holy Week, and various longstanding practices were abandoned, such as octaves of holy days and numerous calendar dates for many of the saints, etc. All that was pre-Vat.II.
.
In the larger scheme of things, Eastern Catholics (and Orthodox for that matter) will have much less difficulty with this innovation because it is of longstanding tradition with them for any priest celebrating the Divine Liturgy to have at least one lay person in the congregation who responds with the appropriate words, gestures and hymns during the Liturgy. Sunday Divine Liturgy normally has at least 2 priests, as well as other clerics present in the sanctuary or behind the Iconostasis.
.
The practice of one priest alone celebrating Mass without anyone else present (or perhaps one altar boy at most) is a feature of the Roman Rite alone, which was a necessity of the Missionary priests who often went out all on their own into the wilderness in seek of converts among the heathen.
