The two photos above capture two liturgical ceremonies: one is a Novus Ordo Mass, another is a Protestant service. They look very similar, don't they?
This similarity proves the success of Paul VI's New Mass in making it as close as possible to the Protestant services. It was for this purpose that he invited a commission of six Protestant theologians to be present during its elaboration to point out any objections they had. [...] The reader has also in these two photos a proof of the enormous apostasy we are witnessing. Indeed, for four centuries, influenced by the Council of Trent, the Catholic Church molded herself as a Militant, Hierarchical and Sacral institution turned toward the glory of God. After Vatican II we have seem a "Copernican revolution," presenting her as Tolerant, Synodal – or democratic – and Vulgar turned to the glory of man. Is it not the Great Apostasy predicted by St. Paul? (2 Thes 2:2-12)

"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
