  • Traditional Catholics are not exempt from sins and scandals, even in their very midst. We must be vigilant, as the world has corrupted everything in it, and Traditional Catholics are taken from, and formed by, the World.

  • We will become better people and better Catholics if we recognize our own shortcomings and faults and put no one on a pedestal. It's why I personally love this line from Divine Liturgy's precommunion prayer: "who came to save sinners, of whom I am first".
    Christ is Risen! He is risen indeed

    Bitchute wouldn’t let me sign in, so my comment is here. Your remarks about women making friends, explains why I have so few friends. I’ve never had many, for long stretches of my life, any friends at all. It’s not that I’m so holy but I’ve always sought friends who were morally in the same place as I was raised. I’m also not a person who joins cliques and cliquey people don’t like me. Women are much cliquier than men, in general. 
    Are furries still a thing? I haven’t seen any for a while. I’m sure they are still online. 
    I was always a misfit despite going to public school. I didn’t watch much tv, can tell you the four movies I saw during childhood, The Ten Commandments, Mary Poppins, Old Yeller, and Charlotte’s Web.  
    By your description of trad women, and of modern wives, it’s a relief I never married and have had only a few close friends. I’m better off as a weird, involuntarily home-alone hermitess, single in the world. 
    Yes, I’ve also seen some things amongst traditional Catholics. I’ve seen the same thing among  the Amish. If you’re human, you’re subject to the penalty of Original Sin. I've seen it in my extended family as a child. At age nine, I lost an entire branch of my family, save two people who also got cut off over a set of Delft dishes in a will. I was close with my second cousins and suddenly, they wanted nothing to do with us. My mother refused to participate in helping a particular woman to unjustly acquire the dishes. Then, my second cousins,’ aunt and uncle moved away, not telling us where they went. Nobody else would tell where they went or how to get in touch. This was decades before the internet, but even so, if someone wants no part of you, you let them go. 
    Here’s a sad fact. I’ve gone to quite a few weddings, especially as a child, teen, and young adult. Of all those weddings, Catholic and including two traditional Catholics, only one couple is still together. They’re not Catholic, they’re Amish. All my sibling’s and first cousins marriages broke up, most of their kids are messed up. Casual friends and coworker’s got married and next thing you know, they’re separated, divorced, remarried, or with various shack-ups. These are people you used to sit next to in the pew and have coffee and donuts together.  A number of these remarried and the second marriage predictably didn’t last. It’s gotten so that I no longer go to weddings.
