BTW, it was Patrick Coffin, not Patrick Madrid. 

Yeah, sorry.  Thanks for the correction.  I get those two confused sometimes.  Novus Ordo have a bevy of lay apologists, who make a living as apologetics celebrities, while the priests go silent.

This is incredibly abnormal.  Normally it will be the priests who do the work of apologetics instead of leaving the task to untrained laymen.

That's one problem I have with Taylor Marshall.  Instead of holding down a real job, he makes a living off his Catholic celebrity, jetsetting around the world taking his family on pilgrimages everywhere, while most Catholics are struggling to make ends meet.  So he knows from were his bread gets buttered, and is not going to say anything to alienate his revenue base.  I at least give Coffin some credit for taking a stand on principle, knowing full well that it means getting kicked off of EWTN radio, etc. ... and losing many of his customers.

I just went over to Coffin's site, and I see that he's turned on the Barnhardt crew.  Thank goodness.  Barnhardt and that Mazza guy (who charges large amounts of money for his "classes", aka video talks) have been spewing a huge load of nonsense.  I'm thankful that Coffin has cut through that bit of BS here.

Of course, he continues on with the whole ministerium vs. munus absurdity.

Hey, all of you ... how about that Benny Ratzinger was a worse heretic than Bergoglio if you actually bothered to look at what the guy taught?

Then I saw the Brazilian flag smeared with blood or red paint. The Virgin Mary appeared, took the flag and shook it, brushing the dirt off the flag.

I interpreted: “In Brazil, there will be a violent period, or a great onslaught of Communism, but the Virgin will come to the country’s rescue.”

I mean, there's literally a coup going on in Brazil right now.

Who knows what's actually going on in Brazil?  They seem to be following the same script as the US, with a stolen election, followed by discontent, followed by an (orchestrated?) "ιnѕυrrєcтισn event" ... followed by cracking down on the "ιnѕυrrєcтισnists" to set the stage for demonizing such people as terrorists for daring the question the fraudulent election results.

Not two years ago, Patrick Coffin ripped on the SSPX, and one of the bullet points he lists in his summary --

• SSPX is a gateway drug to sedevacantism

It's ironic that Coffin is now a sedevacantist

Ah, yes, that dirty word again "sedevacantism".  Better late to the party than never, Patrick.  Now maybe you'll wake up and realize that the Church crisis didn't start with Bergoglio, and your man Ratzinger and his predecessor Wojtyla.

Oh, BTW, Coffin slips up and call JP2 "Saint" John Paul II, despite the fact that JP2 was "canonized" by Non-Pope Jorge.

Didn’t he send  the butler to a dungeon while all sodomites got a promotion under Benedict Arnold?   In the end, he lived in luxury while many Catholics were persecuted.

Maybe Ratzinger was a "restrainer", but not in the way that they thought. 

It's strange how many public figures there are on the far right end of the NO who essentially
make their living sniffing out all the corruption and heresies of the NO, yet they find resistance/trad
groups a bridge too far.
I understand that some of them are probably gatekeepers, as the powerful are wise enough to control or
steer the opposition that inevitably will spring up to challenge them.
I think a number of them are indeed well intentioned and simply can't separate the true church or body of Christ from the buildings and institutions that the apostates inhabit.

I think there's also a lot of grifters who know where their bread is buttered among the lay-theologian, Trad Inc. types.
