 The opinions concerning the origin of the Sacraments which the Fathers of Trent held and which certainly influenced their dogmatic canons are very different from those which now rightly exist among historians who examine Christianity .
First of all, opinions mean absolutely nothing when it comes to the patrimomy of the Church and divine revelation. That's right, it is not opinion but DOGMA! which means one must believe it under penalty of sin and excommunication. See, no room for opinion when it comes to the Sacraments and dogmatic canons. But here is one of the benchmarks of the whole diabolic disorientation of Vatican II and all that followed: you see things are different now from what they used to be in those "medieval times of Trent." Now we are so much more advanced because we have worldly, money-motivated historians who set themselves up as experts and know better than men who were inspired by the Holy Ghost, yea, protected from error by the Sanctifier. No such protection is granted to those who would question that God changes His mind. Have they forgotten that Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever? They have indeed or they know but their pride prevents them from seeing the grievous, fatal error of their Modernist thinking. And yet, with the intelligence these historians and theologians (include here one Joseph Ratzinger) possess, they cannot plead ignorance to the dogmatic canons nor to the true origins of the Sacraments. So if they know and still persist, how can they plead not guilty to the charge of Modernism; how can they plead innocent to being an enemy of Christ and His Church? They cannot, and yet, they dance around terms and ambiguities to say, "oh, no, I didn't mean that, what I really meant was this," and a month later another explanatory note is released, that in effect, says "You misunderstood what I really meant in my disclaimer of my original words and here's how you should take it:" Then they proceed to force the proverbial boot deeper into their mouths as they cover one ambiguity with another (read lie upon another) further confusing the congregations who have, in essence, no comprehension of what is being said but, because of who is saying it, buy it hook, line and sinker without applying the safeguards of the Faith because that would take effort and commitment and just might force the lukewarm out of their comfort zones in the modern convenient conciliar customs where sin is no longer sin, per se, and sacraments can be anything you want them to be. Forget what our Lord says in the Gospel of St. John, Chapter Six. Forget St. Paul's stern warnings in 1 Corinthians 11: 27-32 that "whosoever shall eath this bread, or drink this chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord." But you see, thanks to the total saturation of Modernism into the counterfeit church of conciliarism, consciences have been dulled and rationalized, and, because everyone is doing it, well, it can't be wrong! Au contraire, mes amis. The sooner those sleeping wake up to those facts, the more souls will be saved. One thing is for sure, the longer one dallies, the more satan will win to him. Do you really want that? The remedy: Pray and Return to the Tenets of Trent!
