Quote from: DoubtingThomas

And, you received no answer for it...

In my opinion, CMTV is a business enterprise that produces certain products for a specific market. That Market mostly include the Conservatives from the so-called "Novus Ordo", the Opus Dei, and "Pope-Friendly" TLM Parishioners. Its market does not include every variety of Catholic traditionalism, but their products have features that might be of interest for many traditionalists.

CMTV avoids all the controversial angles from where its products could find incompatibility with its main Market. That is a very smart business-wise way to proceed, but it is not a "Real Catholic" way of sharing truths with Catholics.

An analogy could be made with Fr. Gruner, He also avoids all conflicting angles intentionally.

I think that could be "an answer" to your question.


I guess I was not actually expecting Terry to shoot himself and his organization in the foot but I gave him the benefit of the doubt and had a slim hope that there was an outside chance that Terry and CMTV were actually sincere in their "apostolate".

I'm afraid you're right, it's more about the dollar than the truth.

Mr. Voris, although he produces some good content, is, in the end, just another in the long, growing list of "professional Catholics." These people, despite not having the courage or will to expose the very source of the crisis in the church (i.e., "Rome"), will nevertheless use that very crisis to make a buck. Their unwillingness to lay the blame where it belongs reminds me of the scene in the original Planet of the Apes: "There IS no cave. There CAN'T be!"

I think Voris and CMTV have an heretical understanding of collegiality, VII style.  Just watched a video from yesterday where he says

Quote
The Church is divinely established by Our Blessed Lord and structured in such a way so
that responsibility .. ultimately .. is in the hands of the bishops. They don’t get to enjoy
the rights of authority without the consequent obligations that attend to that authority.
They are the only ones who can end this madness officially .. or at least greatly curtail.
They have the ability to put wayward priests on notice .. in fact they have the duty to do
so and they will answer to Almighty God for not just their own soul, but that of that priest
AND the people he influences.
