Also, Refugess are LEGAL immigrants.[/quote]

Oof. This gave me a ghost of Henry VIII chill. When do American Catholics break away from Rome and declare Vance head of the Catholic Church in America and ALL churches. [/quote]

There are already right wing US sects who consider themselves Catholic.  Many of them say Mass in Latin.[/quote]

Yes and Opus Dei[/quote]

Today's version of the John Birch Society.[/quote]

Have you ever met a member of Opus Dei?  Attended one of their liturgies or events?  Consulted one of their priests?  Read any of their publications?

You genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about. [/quote]

Not PP: But yes I have, and they are cuckoo.[/quote]

Pejorative epithets may be the safe harbor of the intellectually deficient, but they hardly explain the purported defects in the beliefs and practices of Opus Dei adherents. [/quote]

Dude, I am a graduate of one of the top SLACs in this country and have two advanced degrees from an Ivy League institution. I am more than intellectually sufficient and I call it like I see it.[/quote]

LOL. THAT explains things.[/quote]

I think I first heard of Opus Dei as a teen back in the 80s having dinner with a friend who was a Maryknoll priest and I’m pressure sure he used some variant of cuckoo to describe Opus Dei.  And he had a PhD.  
I’m another Gen Xer that has attended all sorts of masses in all sorts of languages, and I’ve found that most of the proponents of the Latin mass are the same folks who object to lay Eucharistic ministers and female alter servers.  Basically pre-Vatican 2 adherents.  My grandmother, who was born in the 19th century, used to like some Latin so I used to take her to a Mexican mass, which she declared basically the same as Latin mass.
