I'm nearly convinced that God is using the ill-fruits of the New Order in order to give us contrast. Whether those ill-fruits are sexual deviants, criminals, the heterodox, the banal, the apostates, or pathological trad-haters. NO-Catholicism is in the process of handing its head to itself, it needs no help from traditionalists. All they need to do is pray and follow the faith.
I'm not sure if I've thanked you (and others like you) lately for the immense contribution you've made to the traditional cause on Free Republic. I'm not being flippant either. Many of us have received personal messages from Protestants and Catholics alike informing us that they are embracing the tradtional faith as a result of reading the threads here on FR. I've received several myself.
Thank you for your good works.
If you ever think that you have seen a fellow disobedient and disrespectful Marcellian looney tune elected as pope, be sure to let us know. Til then, unless His Holiness should change his mind, why need any Catholic listen to the schismatics and the excommunicati?
Support of the Roman Catholic Church and of His Holiness is always a good work. The traditional Faith is, of course, headquarted in the Vatican as it has been since the end of the captivity at Avignon or even the Napoleonic imprisonment of Pius VII.
Roma locuta. Causa finita.
Ubi Petrus, Ibi Ecclesia.
If people wrongfully imagine themselves Catholic without adhering to those principles, they can find themselves a nice, self-worshipping nest of schismatics to pat them on the back for the slights that their respective imperial judgments and ids have suffered from that mean old pope.
I am ever happy to provide such good works to separate the Roman wheat from the Marcellian chaff.
