A Light Goes On

As I was rereading Sr. (alledged) Joan Chittister's screed about the recently released motu proprio allowing greater use of the older "Tridentine" form of the Latin Mass I noticed a side bar where you could discover the N(ot) Catholic Reporter's values. 1 in particular caught my eye because of the 2 ways it could be read.

It said: "RENEWAL Operating out of the spirit of the Second Vatican Council". It dawned on me that this is how they wanted it to be read, that they are operating in conformity with the Spirit of Vatican II. In other words, they were intentionally misleading us by the old smoke & mirrors.

But, if you read it with its real meaning you will see that it is an admission that they are operating outside of the REAL SPIRIT OF VATICAN II as found in the letter of Vatican II. In other words, they are really admitting what they don't want you to know, that they are actually a dissident group FALSELY presenting itself as Catholic when they are anything but Catholic (or even Christian in any real way, shape or form). If they were allowing the true Spirit of Vatican II to operate in what they do, Sr. J would be welcoming the motu proprio because it is in line with the documents of Vatican II that reveal the TRUE SPIRIT of Vatican II, NCReporter wouldn't be pushing for women to be ordained as priests, Bishop Gumbleton, where do I even begin with him?, etc.

The NCReporter is definitely out of God's Spirit. Still, it is nice to see that they are finally, if somewhat occultly, admiting it.

(Maybe some day I'll go into how far short of some of their other values they fall while claiming that that is what they are doing.)
