"Father Radecki is not a mainstream Catholic--he's what's called a traditionalist. Traditionalists are devoted to the Latin Mass, and they have little but scorn for the modernizing innovations of Vatican II, the groundbreaking council called from 1962-65 by Pope John XXIII, who believed that the insular church needed to adapt in order to survive in a rapidly changing world." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article examines traditionalist Catholics, a relatively small breakaway group who came to attention when its most famous adherent, Mel Gibson, drew controversy over his film "The Passion of Christ."
