Here's an observation which makes it obvious that the Tweet-er never met Abp, Rembert Weakland, OSB.
...in my years of experience exposing corruption & sex abuse in the Church, SSPX defenders bear the distinction of being the nastiest and most vicious defenders of predator priests....
Lemmeesee heah.........Rembert threatened mothers and schoolteachers with legal Hell and/or job-loss when they reported on the activities of Salvatorian priest-predators and hired a gun-slinger (D) "Catholic" lawyer--Matt Flynn--to squash those people.
You ain't seen "nasty and vicious" until you've seen a homosexual protecting his own, Ms. Niles.

Dear SharpShootist Dad29--
That's exactly Miss Niles's point. Did you no read the ChurchMilitant reportage on the SSPX here and abroad?

Nope. Don't need to. SSPX is afflicted with the problem of ordaining men. They do not ordain saints, sad to say.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting that Ms. Niles focuses her energy on SSPX, however. Almost as though she has an agenda! Hmmmmmm.
See, here in Milwaukee, we've seen all that and then some. Frauds, queers, womanizers, drunks---all priests, my friend. So this must be the Catholic church, just like Chesterton noted.
I did read much of the reporting on the SSPX and have also read the horrors inflicted by what Voris/Niles call the "Church of Nice." Yes, the problem is everywhere sad to say, even among the traditionalist.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, I'm baffled by the fact that CM seems to have reserved their biggest guns for the SSPX. Why? Frankly, I just don't believe Niles' statement that SSPX defenders are the "nastiest and most vicious defenders of predator priests." That honor probably belongs to certain bishops and priests like James Martin. I don't know any faithful Catholics who defend predator priests no matter where they come from. If you have evidence, call the cops! As a mom and grandma, I'd be tempted to go visit the perpetrator with a baseball bat!
I was among the initial big supporters of Voris et al, but I have been disgusted by their deliberate attacks on groups like The Remnant, the SSPX, and, most recently, LifeSiteNews. A lot of times their back-stabbing is through innuendo. It's repulsive! They are experts in organizing circular firing squads. I've come think, perhaps, it is all about shooting their competition. I no longer go to CM-TV and will not link to their posts. They are too much like the dishonest secular media who love bad news because it brings in the big bucks.
