Excellent point! The "abuses" stem from novelties introduced by a more progressive mindset. They took VCII documents and "interpreted" them to suit their whims.
Here in Albany, we are still heavily entrenched in these novelties and the bishop is now moving into his final 5 years to complete the process he began 30+ years ago. Interestingly enough, this diocese has no monsignors! The bishop does not believe in acknowledgement with titles. There are parishes now run by lay ecclesial ministers (mostly women). Priests have been reduced to "sacramental ministers", stripped of their parishes. I am encouraged by the arrival of Archbishop Dolan. He has begun his visit if the vicariates. It is just a matter of time before he makes his way up here to Albany. I feel confident he is already aware of the situation here and in Rochester.
