Andrew Likoudis publishes big Novus Ordo anthology responding to 'Catholic Traditionalism'. No doubt their refutations of the various recognize-and-resist errors is right on the money, but of course they're also defending the errors of Vatican II and the post-conciliar church. https://x.com/NovusOrdoWatch/status/1986537323417288755/photo/1
How many semi-trads agree with this? "In proscribing errors, the Church cannot demand any internal assent from the faithful by which the judgments she issues are to be embraced." It's too bad it's one of the MODERNIST ERRORS condemned by Pope St. Pius X in Lamentabili Sane (n. 7)

In Charlotte, hey are frantically trying to do all they can to prevent their new 'bishop' from succeeding in his desire to suppress every semblance of Catholicism. One can sympathize with their piety and good will, but the solution is to recognize that this Modernist lowlife is
UPDATE: At Tuesday’s presbyteral council meeting Bishop Martin requested that the use of altar rails be discontinued. We are hearing the meeting was contentious and 3 hours long. Canon lawyers were referenced. Priests & faithful: he can ask but cannot command. USE THE RAILS!
Notice how Kennedy is framing the issue so as to give him an advantage in the argument. He claims Mater Populi Fidelis comes from "a Roman theologian". But Fernandez wasn't issuing the document in his capacity as private theologian but in the exercise of his office as head of the
@riecker What is one to do when what comes from a Roman theologian contradicts what innumerable saints, popes, and theologians have taught before?
It should also give pause to those who say "submit to Rome" when Trads express disagreements. In the realm of disputed questions -- and,
Kennedy Hall doesn't know what he's doing. Check out the responses in his thread.

For those following my Twitter discussion with Matt Gaspers, here's my latest reply.
@MattGaspers @bishop_conley @DrKwasniewski Please excuse the long delay in replying, Matt. I simply didn't have time to really look at your response until now. I reply thus:

Perhaps Kennedy Hall could just quote pre-Vatican II Church teaching on dissenting from the Catholic magisterium (yes, even the non-infallible kind).
@wendelltalks Catholics have been expressing concern and disagreement with non-infallible and imprudent decrees by Church officials since forever. What Catholics don't do is protest the One True Faith and make up their own religion
