The Polish National Catholic Church is only Catholic in name. Much as married priests still consider themselves priests. Both are spiritual frauds.

I am informed that the 'national' so-called 'church' was a Communist instigated attempt to divide Roman Catholics in Poland during the late 1940's-early 50's. Had the author of this superficial 'news' story had the integrity to research the so-called 'Polish National Catholic Church' to its communist Polish roots, he would have no basis from which to attack the Roman Catholic faith - his obvious intent.

That this fraud employs the name of a sacred site in Poland for its paper-mâché 'church' further underlines the hate this pitiful and pathetic 'national church' has for the Roman Catholic faith.

The Holy Mother of God is the Patron Saint of Poland, and when her name is invoked in conjunction with Czestochowa, Our Lady of Czestochowa is respectfully and universally referenced.

The PNCC is a combination of two movements - one was a group of homegrown protestors who were angry that the US hierarchy gave some majority Polish parishes in Pennsylvania pastors who were Americans of German descent.

The other were the renegade priests from Poland who chose Stalin over Christ.

Nowadays they make quite a pair.

I know the author personally. Perhaps his phrasing in the story is not clear. If nothing else, this man is a devoted catholic. He conducts trips to Marian shrines around the world.
