Priests still trying to cover up the known truth...the "bad fish" in the church as the Holy Father just stated. It's priests like these who want to cover up the Facts as they refuse to admit that's what got them in all this mess to begin with...homosexuals, perverts and defiant clergy! Way past time to Clean house!

"Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to the people. You have the minds, the eyes, the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests, your bishops act like bishops and your religious act like religious."..........Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

Bad priests?
Mention names. Call the wolves out.
Bad bishops?
Mention names. Call them out. Publish their crimes, their heresies, their sponsorship of and complicity with liturgical abuses, their “gay” masses etc.

If we've learned anything from the sexual scandal that continues to rock the Catholic Church (to the tune of $3+ billion dollars, who knows how many ruined lives and the hemorrhaging of members, credibility and moral authority) it is that the Catholic hierarchy can not be relied upon to “do the right thing” by reporting criminal (especially sexual) activity nor can we depend upon them with full trust and confidence to foster traditional Catholic beliefs and practices.

Regarding Bishop Taylor (and other bishops and priests who express publicly their disdain for Catholic Tradition including the Traditional Latin mass) I will quote Michael Voris from another video program:

The Church before Vatican II knew who she was.. she produced countless saints and the greatest minds the world has ever known.. brought untold millions of converts to the Church established by Our Blessed Lord as his ONLY one true Church.

What do we have now? Look around Your Excellency, look around. A near bankrupt bureaucracy that needs to run one fundraising campaign after another to fleece the flock to make up for billions paid out in legal costs for homosexual predator priests.. and shrinking congregations.. nuns who hop on a bus and travel the nation’s highways whipping up support for a child murdering president.. 2000 parishes closed in twenty years.

With all due respect Your Excellency.. you need to drop the revisionist history and get out more.

God centered yes, but not only aout God.
A modernist misconception which could and does justify the "anything goes" post concillar mentality within the liturgy.

Pope Benedict: ‘The Liturgy Is Celebrated for God and Not for Ourselves’

The primary importance of Jesus Christ within the liturgy has been a constant theme of Pope Benedict’s teaching during his seven-year pontificate. He has often expressed concern that bad teaching can lead some Catholics to view the liturgy “horizontally,” as the creation of a parish or group in which the community celebrates itself.

“The liturgy is not a kind of ‘self-manifestation’ of a community,” he told pilgrims.

Pope Benedict noted that when priests or parishioners reflect on how to make the liturgy “attractive, interesting and beautiful,” they can “risk forgetting the essential; that is: The liturgy is celebrated for God and not for ourselves.”

I might also add that the bishop has good points and simply and publicly dismissing them in a public way as Mr. v does shows a lack of docility. If Mr. V. Where to add to these points or seek to clarify older practices the Bishop critiques, that might be better. Frankly praying the rosary during the mass, and a whispered canon where things worth correcting, his sainted Grandfathers piety notwithstanding …More

Frankly praying the rosary during the mass, and a whispered canon where things worth correcting, his sainted Grandfathers piety notwithstanding. Even as early as the 1940s there was an attempt to get the faithful to use missals and pray the mass, rather rosaries. Firther the silent Canon was already being supplanted by the use of microphones, dialogue masses and other attempts to entage the faithful. These are good things, even if the whole of the post conciliar era had substantial problems. It is distinctions in these matters that help, rather than broad dismissals of a whole era. Perhaps if Mr. V would add to the bishops remarks or make helpful distinctions, but dimssals such as he makes indicates a rufusal on his part to be taught by a bishop who has a teaching office.

Mr Vorris rightly notes that the Church has her troubles. Yet I just wish he wasnt so simplistic. For example he notes that the sacred liturgy is ONLY about the worship of God. But orthodoxy avoids the use of such words when it comes to the sacred mysteries. God centered yes, but not only aout God. Otherwise, why direct any words such as the Scriptures to the people at all. Christ worships the Father …More

But orthodoxy avoids the use of such words when it comes to the sacred mysteries. God centered yes, but not only aout God. Otherwise, why direct any words such as the Scriptures to the people at all. Christ worships the Father, and we with him, but Christ the high priest, also ministers to his people. Again, orthodoxy would avoid using terms like only, it says both. Mr. V. May wish to correct abuses, fine, but over correction is also to be avoided.
