I would rather have 10 radical old rite Catholic priests than 1000 lukewarm, watered down new mass versions...

It is hard to believe anything from the Vatican. Statistics in their hands serve only political purposes. For example, my guess if "real" was defined that those Catholics who attend Mass at least once a week the number of official count of Catholics would be reduced by 80%. The Vatican want a high count in order to lend gravity to their political messages.

The media bombards us with an anti-Church narrative, telling everyone how ashamed and embarrassed Catholics are of their clergy. The spiritual warfare is aimed directly at the Shepherd in order to scatter the flock. We must stand in solidarity with our true and holy priests and show them that we will not succumb to satan's lies. usccb.org/bible/readings/031019.cfm

I believe the seminaries are very pro liberal and not teaching the supernatural ,that is way there is so many problems in our church

 

 

 

Own comment: 

It should be no surprise to anyone that the Bergoglio effect has led to a decrease in vocations. Precisely how much of that is Bergoglio's fault and how much is a general decline as a result of Vatican II is not up for debate but one thing is for sure: This ogre is not helping.
