The Church must maintain its traditions. We are much richer than Vatican II documents.
We also must be allowed to question whether ecumenism and interfaith dialogue do more harm than good.
We must be allowed to ask if the wasteland that has grown since Vatican II is because of it or in spite of it.
And, most important, we must worship God in the manner He deserves and preserve the Catholic Faith from those who are working, from inside and outside, to destroy it. Otherwise, it will exist as a handful of underground. Non?

Following this line of thinking, then I, as a practicing catholic, must also allow the VOTF "their" voice, when they also say "we also must be allowed to question .....". At what point in time did the members of the Catholic Church becoming a voting block? Who gave you the 'authority' to question what the Holy Spirit does through the Holy Father in the church that Christ established? Essentially, and I hope you realize this, you are questioning God's authority to use the Catholic Church to bring ALL faiths together. Who are you to question God?
