Parishoners should not attend unorthodox masses

I've just read of an incredibly blasphemous rewriting of the Stations of the Cross into a worship service to "Mother Earth," and this is in a Catholic Church in a major southern city. I know that new age, pagan, heretical and at best sloppy formation has infested many parishes but you must stop enabling this and do what the Apostles and disciples would have done, which is to vote with your feet and leave. I'm sorry but even a parish that only dips into dubious beliefs and social agendas put your soul and your families in jeopardy. Grace is blocked if the sacrifice of the Mass is in any way diminished in reverence. God is not shrugging this off. It is your duty as a Catholic to 1) report to the bishop any infractions and deviations that you notice and 2) relocate yourself to the nearest orthodox and proper parish, even if you have to carpool and organize a commute every Sunday. I am serious. These people are tempters and are sucking grace out of the congregation, but their weakness is that they need an audience. A truly orthodox priest would reverentially and with total correctness celebrate a Mass even if he were the only one present. That is the "sniff test" of whose hands you have placed yourselves within. New age heretical priests need an audience. Their attention has turned from the celebration of the sacrifice of the Mass offered to God toward "being conductors of an orchestra" (to quote from this one example's web site). They need an audience to push their agendas and if there is no audience they diminish like the puff of smoke they really are. So do not grit your teeth and wince through the Mass, as that is robbing yourself, your family, and robbing God of what he is due. Be glad that the worst you face in this once great country is a longer commute to a decent Catholic Church and not enduring the hardships many in the world face for expressing their faith. Trust me, these heretical windbags live off of your squirming in the pews since like I said, they need an audience for their agenda, since they have turned their attention away from God. Go and surprise a country parish where the Church may be nearly empty but correct in their devotion and start the exodus to them until the bishop fixes the mess that you report to him before departing for the orthodox pastures.
