text: Again, this kind of comment reflects the profound confusion caused by Vatican II's fundamental shift from the Church being a cult of God to the Church being a cult of Man.  
  
  In the God-centered liturgy, a priest leads the congregation in facing God in the tabernacle at the center of the Church.  
  
  In the Man-centered liturgy, the tabernacle has been hidden away and the priest faces the people to celebrate what is increasingly a social gathering with a symbolic meal.  Most self-proclaimed US Catholics don't even believe in transubstantiation anymore.  
  
  Believe it or not, the liturgy is not about man.  It is about God. 
  
  And by its fruits ye shall know them. Take a look at any statistical analysis of what happened after Vatican II and you will see nothing but a disastrous decline in vocations, church attendance, religious schooling, morality, etc.
  
  Today we actually have many Catholics going around who support abortion (40+%), sodomy (60+%) and euthanasia (50+%).
