A little more clarification is in order here. Traditionalist Catholics are strongly opposed to the reforms made to the Roman Catholic Church as a result of the Vatican II conference in the 1960s. Previously, the priest would officiate the Mass strictly in Latin and facing away from the congregation; Vatican II allowed the priest to deliver the Mass in the vernacular (the local language) and facing the congregation.
Unfortunately there still are quite a few old-line Roman Catholics that still espouse the bullsh*t that Jesus was killed by the Jews and sometimes referring to Jews as 'Christ-killers'
