The internet is very difficult, in some ways, to convey messages properly.
Traditionalists as a group look like a bunch of whining grandmothers most of the time. It is a scandal, an embarrassment, and a major reason we don't have more converts from new-calendarism.

I think OOD said everything I was trying to say in my last post, only better. I started writing mine before he finishes it, so I apologize about my seeming repeating.
Elsewhere someone wrote that the Church is a hospital of souls. He went on to say that you want to find the best doctor, which is your spiritual Father. We are all just patients, sharing what little we know with one another in the course of (hopefully) friendly conversation.
