Larry the Vatican II guy explains the new translation of the Mass, the nature of conscience, and the Novus Ordo . The instruction (delivered by his guest) is helpful too, though the jokes are sometimes a little harsh. Here, for example, from the second one (though the jokes lose a little without the sound and the context):
Larry: Now as everyone knows Vatican II was a new Pentecost.
Guest: What was wrong with the first one?
Larry: It was pre-conciliar.
And:
Larry: Today we’re going to discuss how Vatican II corrected centuries of error by teaching us that we can now follow our conscience.
Guest: We were always able to follow our conscience.
Larry: Wow. You mean you were using birth control too?
Also:
Larry: Vatican II says we are now heart people, not head people.
