Well only short-buser would believe that such an event as a Hindu ceremony at the Fatima shrine would occur without Rome being fully aware it.

You can do better than the term, "Short Buser".

Most shrines operate pretty autonomously. The Church at Fatima isn't for other than Catholic people, in fact the Hindu incident didn't even occur in that Chruch as it isn't even built yet.

As the one making the accusation, you have to prove Rome knew in advance. Such things are not checked by Rome ahead of time. It sounds like an ill conceived Portuguese event. The burden of proof is the same as a person saying that the CEO of Widget Corp knew that a plant Manager in Peoria had a stripper for his Birthday. He may not have heard about it ahead, but he heard about it afterward.

Proof of UR's schism is his association with the SSPX, and his disdain for Catholics who are in the Church. He isn't here to correct anyone, he is here to show how much better he is than any of us in the Catholic faith.

I have absolutely no disdain for anyone here--just those like yourself who like to dish it out but can't stand being answered in kind. If you feel disdained, then don't cast slurs yourself. In fact, I have no sense of superiority whatsoever and have said many many times I consider myself just another sinner. But I'm still a Catholic and so is my family--and I won't let anyone suggest otherwise--which means you.
