This is not only a nonsensical assessment of our current situation but also a grave sin on Voris's part against charity. Boris claims he does not want to criticize the Pope because he thinks it is a sin on the part of the faithful to do so, so he proceeds to split hairs and declare that it is perfectly fine to rip to shreds a "former" Pope, since he is not currently on the Chair of Peter. Someone ought to explain to Voris that "once a pope always a pope", and also that there is question as to whether heretical Francis is really a valid pope, based on the canvassing that went on between some cardinals to depose Benedict and put "their man" in to "modernize" the Church, a practice which JP2 condemned with the punishment of excommunication, and the excommunicated cannot vote in the election of a pope.centrist51https://www.blogger.com/profile/03882855365603287636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054853820111729866.post-55102230791368703562015-09-30T20:39:30.883+02:002015-09-30T20:39:30.883+02:00Dear Anon,

But they have chosen a policy of willful ignorance when it comes to Pope Francis, and intentionally alienated key sectors of the alternative Catholic media, to the detriment of their otherwise respectable apostolate. And their treatment of the issue of the SSPX has been simply embarassing, to put it nicely. It's amazing to me that Michael Voris and Co. can make exceedingly fine distinctions when it comes to the canonical status of the SSPX, but finds the same impossible as far as fair criticism of the Pope is concerned. It's sad, but it would seem that the success of their apostolate coupled with the desire to grow into a fully-blown media outlet has led to their quickly becoming a caricature of the very establishment they first sought to expose.<br /><br />I'm pleased to hear that you enjoy the articles on this blog!<br /><br />-RCRadical Catholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04135335562951838761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054853820111729866.post-83786674077257136002015-09-30T19:48:22.949+02:002015-09-30T19:48:22.949+02:00I've been listening to CM for almost two years...I've been listening to CM for almost two years now and really thought he was a solid Catholic and that Church Militant was conservative Catholic. What I'm find out now is that he's afraid to come out and state the obvious. And, when the pope was here, what did he do? Run off to New Zealand??? He stated about a month or two ago that CM was going to be covering the Pope's visit, then he goes into hiding??

And what a contrast to Michael Voris' harsh commentary on the same issue.<br />I'm shocked that the treatments are so very different. The priest lays out the truth and backs it up. Voris lays down an uncharitable tirade. From the priest I get teaching, to the point where I am coming to a different understanding of the Society of Pius X. From Voris I get off-putting nastiness which makes me want to take up the Pius X cause!!<br />BarbaraA Daughter of Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01439393756090630198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2054853820111729866.post-66923171378002192382015-09-17T02:30:31.217+02:002015-09-17T02:30:31.217+02:00Feelings and associations are pretty much Michael ...Feelings and associations are pretty much Michael Voris and crew's operative point of view. They don't understand schism, but they try to redefine what "holy obedience" means to an obtuse degree. "Holy Obedience" does not mean "spiritually blind obedience". <br /><br />Also, the SSPX was formed under the Holy See. It was not formed to go against it. Nice try. Did any readers catch how Michael's fellow Ivy League sister use the phrase "material schism"? Lol. They're reaching, but why now? Why right, smack in the middle between two bizarrer, heretical documents from the Pope and the upcoming Synod? When the Synod Hits the Fan, we know what "side" he'll be on.
