"like manner We reply to the third question: What will be the results of this innovation? The results expected, or rather desired, are that the faithful will participate in the liturgical mystery with more understanding, in a more practical, a more enjoyable and a more sanctifying way. That is, they will hear the Word of God, which lives and echoes down the centuries and in our individual souls; and they will likewise share in the mystical reality of Christ's sacramental and propitiatory sacrifice"


What will be the results, indeed. Attendance down from 75 percent to 18 percent. In Europe down to single digets.

Results like this with circuses like world youth day will giarantee even worse. The bottom has not been hit yet.

After Trent, after the Pauline Reform back in the day, entire countries lost the Faith. Wars were fought, violence increased...all the fault of that Ecumenical Council and the reformed Mass?

Cite one Ecumenical Council after which no turmoil occured.
