I know how you feel. In my experience, the best way to find the answers is in prayer. Don't let people influence you too much or pay too much attention to historical arguments, etc. Looking at some of the long, drawn out debates on this forum and

Wow! Wonderful! I am already sharing it with others. I see Father Thomas Loya is concelebrating and Deacon Sabatino Carnazzo is also present. A big thanks to those who recorded and edited this video.
