Your commentary stated the following:

Fr. Calmel affirmed that it is precisely in virtue of obedience that it is necessary to refuse every compromise with the liturgical revolution: "The infallibility of the pope is limited; therefore, our obedience is limited," indicating the principle of the subordination of obedience to Truth, of authority to Sacred Tradition. Fr. Calmel drew attention in the history of the Church to the cases of Saints who were opposed to the false authority of popes who were schismatics and heretics, such as St. Athanasius, St. Thomas a Becket, and St. Joan of Arc. Three days before the invalid "New Mess" was to replace the Traditional Latin Mass in the Newchurch of the New Order, Fr. Calmel publicly refused, proclaiming:

I'll give you a few days to correct your error; if not, then I'll post it to CathInfo:

Blessings to you in our Lord Jesus Christ,

Traditio Fathers = one priest.

He always talks about himself in the plural.

And when you said they (aka he) MAY be priests, may is the operative word; he traces his orders through one of the dubious Old Catholic lineages.

Priest or no priest; he's dishonest.  If someone points out a clear historical error (or, any other error, for that matter), then he should fix it.  Not the first time, by the way, that I have emailed Traditio, asking for corrections to articles which they have made, and of course, they have refused to make them.

With all due respect, most "traditionalists" I've contacted are off the wall. I think everybody's under a lot of pressure, and the priests want to "fight", they seem really angry, but this is a monumental David v. Goliath battle and they have few resources, and seem to be using resources in a backwards fashion (intellect rather than praying, etc.). I have contacted Traditio before too because they/he have/has written to avoid all indults because they're all invalid. This may be MOSTLY true, but our local indult is of a really old priest who was ordained in the old rite, so as far as I know there is real Eucharist in his mass, even though the missal is '62 and I avoid the site. The importance of noting this is that these priests might be more sanely RECRUITED rather than AVOIDED and ATTACKED. I have noticed that trads have been less interested in coalition building and more interested in succuмbing to dividing ourselves so that we may be further conquered by the enemy.

The same goes for NovusOrdoWatch and some of these others. I suggested that instead of their "Novus Ogre" award, maybe they could give out an award to a traditionalist/sedevacantist who has been serving the Church well, and this idea was attacked as "sinful". Yet any military rewards its soldiers for duties well performed, and we are the "Church Militant". Another word for traditionalist is "reactionary", and without a pope (I'm sedevacantist) there has been a lot of "over-reaction" going on. One must have understanding given the state of affairs of the Church, but I've instinctively had to withdraw from conversing with these different groups because there is a wall built up against constructive criticism.

Also keep in mind some one of these peoples could be controlled opposition, not even "on our side", a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Traditio has made its own reputation.  Whoever it is that runs it ("Fr. Morrison?") has always refused the smallest correction.  You're considered an ENEMY if you inform him of his typos, and even worse if you try to help correct his errors of fact.  He's not interested in the truth, to put it bluntly.  

He practices the same Modernism that he criticizes.  

If you think the site has great info on it then you ought to copy it all because there will likely come a day when it's not there, anymore.  This is the Internet, you know.

He claims having had 21 million readers.  That's a stupid lie, because you can most simply see that every time you enter the site, the counter goes up by one.  If you, a single reader, visit the site 3 times a day for a year, he then claims to have a thousand readers because of your 'hits', but it's just you (one reader) going there 1,000 times.  Some readers have visited many thousands of times, others just once or twice, and everything in between.  So you could easily reduce his 21 million figure by 1,000 times, making it 21,000 readers.  And many of them are very possibly non-Catholics, who are getting a pretty sour impression of what Catholicism is all about:  misspelling, bad grammar, historical inaccuracy, ill manners, calumny, detraction, hate-speech, presumption of authority and pugnacious pompous pride.  Are they going to be attracted to the Faith by that?  I hardly think so.  

Who has ever converted to the Catholic Church by reading Traditio?  You can be SURE that if it had happened, "The Fathers" would have been parading it around like a medal of honor.  But 'they' have not a whimper to evoke.  Nor do 'they' provide the Sacraments as priests are supposed to do.  How could "they" have time to hear confessions or visit the sick when 'they're' answering thousands of msgs every day?  Answer:  'they' couldn't.

If he were honest, he'd say 21 million VIEWS, but he NEVER says that, nor does he acknowledge the point.  He ignores it.  He keeps saying "readers."  So he has an inflated ego, and no regard for objective truth when it's inconvenient for his agenda.  IOW, he is a Modernist.  

Priest or no priest; he's dishonest. If someone points out a clear historical error (or, any other error, for that matter), then he should fix it. Not the first time, by the way, that I have emailed Traditio, asking for corrections to articles which they have made, and of course, they have refused to make them.

Jehanne, you've been wasting your effort trying to impress him.   He won't be corrected and he wants nothing to do with precision or truth.  He is addicted to posting articles, replete with typos, errors of fact and bad grammar, all the while
pretending to be doing you some kind of favor.  You have to LET HIM GO.

Father Morrison hasn't run that website for years now. It was given over to someone else. You can clearly see the difference in writing style when it happened, too.

He used to refer to himself as "Fr. Moderator." Notice how it says, "The fathers," now.

I liked Fr. Morrison when he wrote it. Don't remember/know if that was his real name or not, but I enjoyed when I asked him questions and he answered me extremely politely back when. I don't even have any of them, and I wish I had, so I could share them here.
