TIA put emphasis on the wrong words, rather:


Quote
If a General Council did not provoke the spirit of turbulence, one might almost doubt the operation of the Third Person of the Trinity over the Assembly”

If Sheen were still alive I would point to that, and tell him to read! and read it again!

I thought both Pope John XXIII and Pope Paul VI said in effect that the Third Person of the Trinity (infallibility) was not invited to preside over the Council. Next they will say the Holy Spirit presided over the traditional teaching but left the room during the Modernist bits.

Unfortunately that is where Catholicism is today.

He was referred to as a Silent Communist.
.
Bella Dodd explained that Fulton J. Sheen is the one who convinced her of the truth of the Catholic faith, so she abandoned Communism and converted to being Catholic.
Therefore, was it Sheen's "silent communism" that gave him the ability to convert a Communist?
Is that what it takes to convert a Communist, "silent communism?"

Yes, +Sheen was certainly a Modernist after Vatican II, but no Communist.

When he narrated that famous Tridentine Mass video, he sounded thoroughly Traditional.  He made some comments in particular about the Traditional liturgical customs to the effect that the Church retains and cherishes, but does not discard, her valuable traditions.
