I have a problem with Polyanna Catholicism, all this hugging, all this schmoozing the Pope does with World Youth, all this apologizing that makes us laughing stocks.

I suspect you have a problem with a lot of things.

The Pope with young people bothers you?

You're like every other SSPXer I've ever met: creepy.

You've already been sufficiently hammered by others on this site, so I'll just say, have a nice day and smile once in a while.

Oh, I don't mind hammering, so long as I can hammer back. Does the Pope with young people bother me? Yes. And I'll tell you why. Because we don't need any more sucking up to the young. What they need is straight talk to help them resist the world's temptations. The last thing they need from the Church is more rock and roll. But for twenty-five years he's been going to these things and for twenty-five years a whole generation of Catholics have been losing more and more of the Faith. During this time he should have cleaned out the seminaries. He should have appointed men of character for the episcopate, not the collection of apostates and perverts who serve him now. We have enough movie stars. We need somebody to clean house and preach the Gospel straight.
