Dogmatic Theology, Catholic Church, Vatican II, Vatican II Church, Novus Ordo 

In this book Michael Davies shows how Fr. Annibale Bugnini - before being removed from his position by Pope Paul VI under suspicion of being a Freemason - was able to "reform" the Catholic Mass into the constantly evolving liturgy from which the Church has been suffering since 1969. Quoting Bishops and Cardinals, as well as liberal "experts" and Protestant observers, the author goes into the ambiguities or "time bombs" which were built into the Second Vatican Council's document on the liturgy by a few revolutionaries in order to be exploited later - and which have been detonating ever since in liturgical abuses, both unauthorized and authorized. Michael Davies concludes with statistics showing that the liturgical reforms have borne bitter fruit in a massive loss of Catholic faith and practice in the Western World. He urges a return to the Traditional Latin Mass, which has always produced great fruit in vocations, large Catholic families and saints.

"I am convinced that the crisis in the Church that we are experiencing is to a large extent due to the disintegration of the liturgy." - Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, 1997 (See page 37)

"It would be false to identify this liturgical renewal with the reform of rites decided on by Vatican II. This reform goes back much further and goes forward far beyond the conciliar prescriptions. The liturgy is a permanent workshop." - Father Joseph Gelineau, 1977 (See page 46)
