- The Vatican II as a Masonic Coup
A traditionalist Catholic theory claiming that the Second Vatican Council was not a legitimate pastoral renewal but an internal seizure of the Church by modernist, liberal, or Masonic forces. In this telling, vernacular liturgy, ecumenism, openness to the modern world, and new forms of participation were not reforms but controlled demolition aimed at hollowing out the Roman Catholic Church from within.
