Bishop Foley has turned out to be a small man with a jelly spine.

You may be correct, but what does all that say about the bishop in Alabama? Coward?

Regardless of where Mahony came from, we're stuck with him for another 7 years.
I have the distinct misfortune to live here in his Archdiocese. The only way he'll go sooner is if he's indicted. That might still happen, as there are several investigations of him going on at the present time.
The heterodox goings on here are enough to make your head spin in disbelief.
The annual "Religious education" conference is a three-day celebration of Amchurch in all its inane glory. There is a sister in charge of vocations (!), which are almost non-existent, and the diocesan newspaper beats a weekly drumbeat of the same tired old pap of "social justice", "diversity", and the never-ending need for "updating", "empowerment of the laity", and "more vibrant liturgies", so we can all "do church" better and celebrate our wonderful selves.
Not to mention the most urgent need to "implement the diocesan Synod directives" in every parish, which basically comes down to terrorizing the faithful into standing throughout Communion. And heaven help you if you dare to kneel!
Father Johnson was the absolute antithesis of Amchurch insanity. For which he was treated very badly by the powers that be. But God brought great good out of his tribulations, and we at St. Mary's by the Sea were truly blessed in receiving his wise guidance during his 25 years there.
He has brought hope to so many people that God DOES raise up holy priests, and that He IS in charge of His Church, come what may, and that to keep the Faith in all its integrity is what matters. This storm will eventually pass, and a beautiful restoration is already in place in many quarters. I firmly believe that.

We all hope that your beliefs may turn out to be well founded.

"I wish the SSPX would agree to the terms offered by Pope John Paul. I know there are younger SSPX priests from outside our area who would come in and willingly say the Tridentine Mass..."
They (SSPX) can not agree to the Pope's offer. There is more to this than just Mass in English.
