4.3. Are you saying the Catholic Church defected? That’s impossible.

We agree. The Church cannot defect—it remains the spotless Bride of Christ. But the Vatican II sect is not the Catholic Church. It is a counterfeit organization occupying Catholic structures, preaching a counterfeit religion.

Just as the Arians once occupied the episcopal sees while St. Athanasius and the faithful few kept the true faith, so today we distinguish between the visible buildings and those who occupy them, and the invisible marks of the Church: one in faith, governed by the true Magisterium of all time, and worshipping in the Traditional Latin Mass and sacraments. The true Church continues—unspotted and untainted—but eclipsed for a time (cf. Apocalypse 12).
