Well, you might start by explaining what this "EF" is that you speak of.

So, do you think that the traditional Latin Mass has been appropriately marginalized by the Novus Ordo "Mass"?

I use it just to distinguish it from NO. Tridentine is fine.

Marginalized? All my evidence points to the Latin Mass "plowing" it's way through the protestant ritual.

Welcome, Cosmos.

Lighthouse, I believe 'EF' refers to 'extraordinary form', is that correct Cosmos?

70 years old hopefully = thick skin. You may need it for the "polite correction" your brothers in the Faith will provide. Some have a bullet-between-the-eyes approach, but the heart is in the right place.

Stick around and get to know the members, and vice versa.

Yes, and thanks.

But as far as any conspiracy at the top echelons to bury EF(?), I don't think that will ever happen and it would bring on a collective roar from the billions of us. It would be foolish also, as I think the Vatican knows this is what's saving us.

The roar would not be from billions nor even one billion--you'd be lucky if even 1 or 2 million roared. And the current "Bishop" of Rome would give less of a damn than Montini did when he inflicted the new "mass" upon Christendom. The ones who are committed enough to tradition to actually roar are troublemakers in the eyes of "Rome"--they aren't very concerned about saving you or keeping you in the fold (at least not beyond what serves ulterior motives--which is probably minimal).

I don't mean to be argumentative--just a reality check. I came here with the naïve idea that Pope Benedict's motu had set the world straight (or at least firmly upon the right path). I definitely no longer believe that.

I have some words of my own to accomplish that. :wink:

The Great Sacrilege (PDF)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0895550148/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0895550148&linkCode=as2&tag=httpwwwchanco-20 The reviews on Amazon are worth reading.

I have not read the PDF, but I certainly will. (First, I gotta get my PJ's and coffee in hand, and escape my granddaughter who's visiting us, and who demands all attention, Arghhhh!

)

I have read all of Archbishop Lefebvre's papers to the community, and the story of the insurgent activity in the Vatican, such as the Masonic infiltration and such. I'm not sure if all that is true. Is there any citation of the validity of this, even from neutral upper ecclesial echelon.? If true, there should be some.
