((This is obviously very, very bad, and is the doing of satan. This is what happened right after the promulgation of the Novus Ordo Mass in late ARSH 1968. Many, many Catholics saw the Holy and August Sacrifice of the Mass turned into sometimes literally a clown show in the space of just a few short months, and simply walked away. I didnt leave the Church the Church left me.
Now satan wants to finish what was started 45 years ago. What we are seeing today is the coming to full fruition of the Modernist-Freemasonic-Communist-Homosexualist war of aggression against God and His Church.)) per Ann Barnhardt.
As a freemason who attended a Catholic university, I know of no masonic conspiracy to destroy the church. In fact, there are many devout Catholics who are also freemasons.
However, I did encounter many priests and nuns determined to transform the church from within. Many as liberation theologists and a significant minority as gay and lesbian.
