"The prase, "Smoke of Satan", in it's context, referred to those who questioned the decisions of the papacy. It was as applicable to rad trads as it was to modernists, who rad trads mistakenly think the pope was thinking of."
Right is wrong,
And wrong, right.
White is black
And black, white.
Night is day
And day, night.
Liberal logic
Is quite a fright.
War is peace
And freedom, slavery.
Toil is ease
And virtue, knavery.
So intones
The liberal savory
Lips all aquiver
With ersatz bravery.
How can that be?
We ask in a quandary.
That dirty shirt
Should go to the laundary.
Patience weve not
With liberal maundering
Stick to the truth;
Repent of your wandering.
The phrase refers to the literal Smoke of Satan, one of whose manifestations is the Modernist Heresy. It refers in no way to opposition to the Smoke of Satan, even should a twisted perspective see such opposition as somehow wrongful.

In the early 60's the Vatican informed bishops that homosexuals should not be allowed to become priests. The seminaries did not listen to the Vatican, and look what happened.
I do not think that we should defrock celibate priests, because they have proved that they have the willpower to be celibate. However, to be prudent, no more homosexuals should be allowed in seminaries; and, of course, there should be no 2nd chances for guilty priests.
