To all my Catholic fellow travelers in Christ who are so quick to beat up on the “heretic” Luther, a reminder that it was crap like this in the 1500s that made Luther necessary to bring the church back to Christ, and it’s crap like this in the 2000s that will make another Luther necessary—and when God raises him up, be ready to follow him as he follows Christ.
Nope. Exactly the wrong take. Traditionalist Catholics are who we are because we accept what the Catholic Church is...divinely instituted by Christ.
We are not the heretics. We believe what we always believed....right back to the Apostles and the Church Fathers. The same reason we opposed Luther in the 1500s is the same reason we oppose the liberals now:
Because they have abandoned the immemorial teaching of Holy Mother Church for the novel doctrines of heretics.
In fact, Luther’s crap theology is exactly why this sort of thing is happening....and I see a direct ideological chain from “Hier stehe ich, ich kann nicht anders” through “freedom of religion” to “IT’S MAAM!!”
