The letter was about woman and children being caught up in the crossfire. Another forum got my son kicked out of the Seminary before he even started. WE NEED TO STOP HURTING EACH OTHER.
See? You're doing it again. WE don't need to do anything. >I< don't need to stop hurting anyone, because I'm not hurting anyone now. You're committing the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. The classic example of this fallacy is, "Have you stopped beating your wife?"
"We need to stop hurting each other."
Me: "No we don't."
"So you want to keep hurting people?"
Me: "I wasn't hurting anyone to begin with."
"Have you stopped beating your wife?"
Me: "No."
"So you're just going to keep beating her, huh?"
Me: "I never beat her to begin with."
I TRULY and correctly interpreted YOUR WORDS in your letter. Perhaps you could clarify what you really meant. FYI: Words mean things.
If you are talking about Fr. Pfeiffer or Fr. Hewko's causing unnecessary divisions in Tradition, then say so.
If you're talking about Fr. Cekada's novel (never seen before) doctrine "If you assist at a Mass that is Una cuм Papa Nostro Francisco, then you are Una cuм his heresies, hence a mortal sin" killing the competition and causing unnecessary division and home-aloneism, then say so.
If you're talking about the Dimond Brothers condemning virtually everyone in Tradition, being the poster boys for dogmatic home aloners, then say so.
If you're talking about the neo-SSPX being "The organization first, the good of souls second" then say so.
There are many priests and bishops who step over the line, over-step their authority, and command their flock where they can and can't go for Mass.
They bind their flock, under pain of sin, to do what is good for their Group or even themselves. They are at fault, yes. Is there too much "Rah rah my group" and jingoism in the world of Tradition? Of course there is.
BUT THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS. There are holy men who are doing their duty, who follow God first, and don't give in to the temptations to cause division in order to increase their collection revenue, worldly comforts, fame, power, etc.
But in your words above, you painted with a broad brush, making NO exceptions, implying that every priest and bishop is to blame for the continued state of Crisis that we find ourselves in today. There is no other way to interpret YOUR WORDS above. So if you want to add or subtract words, be my guest.
