Concentrating in detail on the post Vatican II revisions of its doctrinal teachings, this new edition tells the story of the betrayal and destruction of the Roman Catholic tradition. Dr. Rama Coomaraswamy outlines the descending course of events which lead the Church hierarchy to revise, or reject, doctrines and sacraments which illuminated the lives of centuries of saints and led centuries of the faithful to God. For all readers who are interested in the history of Christianity, and especially for Catholics who long to know the true doctrines of the traditional Church, this recently revised and updated book traces a journey through a labyrinth of error and deception to fountain of peace, beauty and salvation which flowed without ceasing for generations of men and women during the last two thousand years.
