Question
IS CONFESSION WITH A NORVUS ORDO PRIEST O.K.?

I USED TO VISIT JESUS UP IN THE TABERNACLE AT MY LOCAL CHURCH UP THE BLOCK. I STOPPED BECAUSE I WASN'T CONFIDENT HE WAS THERE BECAUSE OF NORVUS ORDO/VATICAN II ISSUES. WAS THIS WRONG, MY HEART WAS JESUS?  

Answer
There is really no doubt about the fact that the New Order that has essentially taken over most of the Church since Vatican II is not Catholic from the traditional perspective of 2000 years.  It has instituted a new "Mass" (really a made-up Protestantized service), new "Sacraments," and a new morality.  For an approachable and thorough discussion of these points, we recommend the Frs. Radecki book WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE CATHOLIC CHURCH?  This book includes detailed comparisons of Mass and Sacramental formulae and is available from Amazon.com.
