Anyway, I do also believe much of the animosity between SGG and IC is due to "a contest of wills or egos."

Eliz, I notice you didn't comment on this statement. Do you agree with it or not?

There is likely truth in your assessment, but it is an over-simplification. We are not talking about high school football coach rivals.

Bernie Brueggemann, a major Thuc line supporter had his funeral at SSPV. So, that is one example of the random enforcement of the [man-made] rules. I know first-hand other families at the school who received at SGG without expulsion.

Did you mean to say contributor, a somewhat stronger word than supporter? It would seem that this would show that even more so than hate, it is money that feeds the brutal metaphysics of SW Ohio traditionalism

I didn't say it was like football rivals, which are not scandalous at all. I'm saying it is scandalous in a general sense, without over-complicating it with details. It shouldn't be difficult to see that the situation is unhealthy and it is perpetuated by some of the clergy in SW Ohio.

Without "overcomplicating it with details," Elizabeth, SJB's purpose in mentioning ANY of this is, as usual, to drag the discussion around to denigrating his favorite boogeyman, Fr. Cekada.

The details will point to your clergyman friend. How could they not?

Canute, what was your purpose in actually using his name here, when I clearly did not?
