Schuckhardt was expelled by the other clergy of the CMRI. I don't understand how the people currently in charge of the CMRI can be responsible for an evil that they actively drove out of their community.

Nobody says that current CMRI members are "responsible" for Shuckhardt.

I thought you said they had "baggage" from Schuckhardt.

No, what you don't understand is that people can drive an evil out of their midst and yet still have baggage as a result of the intense, unsavory process.

Some have argued that they should have changed their name from CMRI, as Schuckardt was far from the only one who left and, what is more, he was the founder.  New name, fresh start; old name, no fresh start?

FWIW, I taught at the Mount and lived in the rectory (and also taught/lived at the minor seminary in ID, although briefly).  There's baggage.  There's also a lot of good.  Such is the case all throughout Traddieland.

People still bring up the schuckhardt stuff from over 40 years ago are just looking to detract from the CMRI.

100% agree.  Perhaps they would benefit from learning about the seriously dysfunctional origins of the Capuchins, far from being a Bella Riforma, was plagued with Lutherans, Joachimist Franciscan Spirituals, in-fighting and political intrigues.  Yet the early Capuchin Reform produced many saints, and for a while at least, righted itself.
