Title: Any interest out there for a confrence by Kolbe Center for Creation
Post by: Mr G on December 03, 2018, 12:40:32 PM
Hello all, I was think about sponsoring a conference given by the Kolbe Center for Creation http://kolbecenter.org but first I would like to see how much interest there would be.

Would those of you that would be interested in attending a conference by their speakers be willing to travel to Kansas for the conference? Most likely a 4 to 6 hour conference, fees will be most likely $5 to $20 depending on what it take to cover the expenses.

A most wonderful and noble idea!  Although, I would not be able to attend I wish you all the best in trying to bring about your hoped for conference.  The Kolbe Center is top notch in all the magnificent work they have done and continue to do.

I submitted the following message to Hugh Owen, the Director of the Kolbe Center via their website and promptly received the below message back from him:

"A post concerning a possible Kolbe Center Conference has been put up on CathInfo.com under the "Fighting Errors in the Modern World" category.
 I hope that said conference can materialize and be a real success!  By the way, a special thanks goes out to you for addressing in such a clear and admirable way the problems/errors in Fr. Paul Robinson's book.  I am presently reading the devastating critique of same put forward in Robert Sungenis' truly superb and most enlightening  book Scientific Heresies and Their Effect on the Church."

Dear [name deleted],

Pax Christi!

We will be happy to cooperate with anyone who wants to host a conference
on Creation, Evolution and the Crisis of Faith.

Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do for the Kingdom
of God!

In Domino,

Hugh Owen

Hoping that you can reserve a front row seat for Fr. Paul Robinson.  Now if we can just get someone to buy him a round trip ticket from Australia to get there.  If he can't make it, perhaps you could set him up for a video conference.  He could be the nominal dissenter.  :)

It doesn't show on their website yet.

The Institute of Christ the King hosted the Kolbe Center for a seminar last year, but with the SSPX selling and promoting Fr. Robinson's The Realist Guide to Science and Religion, it looks like it will be "long ages" before the SSPX will ever host them.

True, but this is not hosted by the SSPX, it is one Saint Mary's resident that has made arraignments with the Kolbe Center. More details will follow in the coming weeks

That's what I assumed and let me sincerely congratulate the individual(s) who is/are behind this most wonderful upcoming event.  I certainly hope it can be publicized to the max in and around the SSPX epicenter known as St. Mary's.  Of all the places in the U.S. for this to be taking place I would say this is -- in terms of the SSPX -- the absolute best.  I hope it really helps to shake things up in "SSPX Town" and beyond -- all the way to Menzingen.

I would hope Robert Sungenis with his pedal to the traditional Catholic metal book Scientific Heresies and Their Effect on the Church -- A Critical Analysis of: "The Realist Guide to Religion and Science" can be there, but of course everything costs money and I know TradCats only have so much of it to go around.

I just received a personal confirmation from the Kolbe Center that the above information is accurate.

I sure hope maximum publicity can be given for this event.  It could not have been in a better locale in the entire United States!  I hope KC goes for the jugular in bringing Fr. Robinson's book to the forefront of their presentation or at least makes plenty of reference to it.

I mentioned this in another thread, but thought it might be useful to mention it here too. Perhaps you all are already aware of this, but if not I'm pasting it here:
The book by Fr. Robinson was published by a Novus Ordo publishing company (http://www.gracewing.co.uk/ (http://www.gracewing.co.uk/)). Its foreword (written by a Novus Ordo priest, Fr. Paul Haffner) mentions "Saint John Paul II" and "Blessed Paul VI". 

The Novus Ordo foreword situation apparently caused such a scandal that Fr. Robinson had to issue a disclaimer in which he says he "was not provided an opportunity to read the foreword before the publication of his book", which I find very hard to believe. What author does not read the foreword to his book before getting it published, especially when it might contain serious errors (since it was written by a Novus Ordo priest)? At the very least it's extremely irresponsible, at most it's deceitful and duplicitous.

The disclaimer is here: http://sspx.org/en/news-events/news/sspx-seminary-professor-releases-new-book-realist-guide-religion-and-science-35424 (http://sspx.org/en/news-events/news/sspx-seminary-professor-releases-new-book-realist-guide-religion-and-science-35424)

Yes, I am sure that "progressive creationism" will be addressed along with many of the errors that proceed form it.

Thanks for the response Mr. G.  I am going to contact the Kolbe Center to inquire about this while at the same time encouraging them to record it themselves if at all possible.

I just called the Kolbe Center and managed to speak to the Director (who will be coming to St. Marys as one of the speakers) of the Center, Hugh Owen.  He said that unfortunately they don't really have the means to bring down visual recording equipment to the seminar.  However, the good news is that he hopes someone will be able to record it and that if it is done he would be open to having it placed on the Kolbe Center's website for access by the public.

I also found out today from another source (on the ground in St. Marys) that plans for greater publicity of the seminar are presently being contemplated such as dissemination of flyers throughout the area.  Please keep the success of this important seminar (in the heart of largely "hostile" territory) in your prayers.  Also, please consider a contribution to the Kolbe Center to help subsidize their magnificent Catholic efforts in general and their trip to St. Marys in particular.

*************************************************************************************************************
The following is seen on CathInfo.com under the OP Catalog of Compromise, Change, and Contradiction in the SSPX (https://www.cathinfo.com/sspx-resistance-news/catalog-of-compromise-change-and-contradiction-in-the-sspx/)

#30: Contradiction (Fr. Robinson's Book Signals a "New Attitude" in Menzingen):

For decades, Bishop Fellay gave conferences in which he spoke of an alleged "new attitude in Rome" and in more recent years an alleged "new openness to Tradition."  

For its part, Rome might observe a "new attitude in Menzingen," which moves well beyond the tenets of the branding campaign (by which the SSPX was made to cease war on conciliar and Roman modernism, as was explained in post #26 of this thread), and into the active promotion of modernism.

One of the things Francis could point to (besides everything else cited in this thread) evincing this "new attitude in Menzingen" would be the 2018 release of Fr. Paul Robinson's book "The Realist Guide to Religion and Science."
https://angeluspress.org/products/the-realist-guide-to-religion-and-science (https://angeluspress.org/products/the-realist-guide-to-religion-and-science)

Surely Rome smiled when it learned that:

-The book would be published by a conciliar publishing company;

-The Foreword written by Novus Ordo priest.  

-Fr. Robinson would champion the exegetical interpretations of Fr. Stanley Jaki (a modernist who questioned the Mosaic authorship of the Pentateuch, as well as the literal interpretation of Gen: 1-3, which was the near-unanimous consensus of Church Fathers);

-The book would feature a denial of a global flood;

-The book would feature a denial of a young age for the earth (thereby purporting to remove a significant obstacle to the acceptance of evolution);

-The book would reject the consensus of the Fathers' literal interpretation of the Genesis creation account;

-The book would represent an endorsement of the heretical historico-critical method of exegesis;

-The book would suggest a redefinition of scriptural inerrancy by admitting the possibility of error into Biblical historical accounts;

-The book would reject the traditional Martyrology's account of a young earth:

“In the year, from the creation of the world, when in the beginning God created heaven and earth, five thousand one hundred and ninety-nine; from the flood, two thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven; from the birth of Abraham, two thousand and fifteen; from Moses and the coming of the Israelites out of Egypt, one thousand five hundred and ten; from the anointing of King David, one thousand and thirty-two; in the sixty-fifth week, according to the prophecy of Daniel; in the one hundred and ninety-fourth Olympiad; in the year seven hundred and fifty-two from the founding of the city of Rome; in the forth-second year of the empire of Octavian Augustus, when the whole world was at peace, in the sixth age of the world, Jesus Christ, eternal God, and Son of the eternal Father, desirous to sanctify the world by His most merciful coming, having been conceived of the Holy Ghost, and nine months having elapsed since His conception, is born in Bethlehem in Juda, having become man of the Virgin Mary.”
Martyrologium Romanum (reading for the 25th day of December

In the old days, the SSPX used to publish articles like this one by Dr. Terry Jackson, defending young earth theory and the global extent of the Flood:

Or this one, condemning the idea that we have as yet not discovered the "true meaning" of Genesis ( and that the near-unanimous consent of the Fathers was wrong):

Neither can one make the argument that as a single priest, Fr. Robinson's book it not representative of SSPX opinion.  True, there has been no Menzingen declaration to this effect (Thank heavens!), but shortly after the book's release, it was the SSPX's US District itself which coordinated and promoted a book launch in St. Mary's, KS.  The SSPX therefore cannot be absolved of sponsorship.

Shortly thereafter, evolution zealots invaded Cathinfo to defend their pet (one of them a St. Mary’s college professor).  It didn’t matter that Fr. Robinson himself denied evolution.  His championing of old earth theory had ostensibly removed the barricade and placed the SSPX upon a new trajectory in that direction, and Rome knew it.

The purpose of this book was to telegraph to Rome that the Society was down with modernity, and Rome need not fear them staining the conciliar church’s reputation by projecting “ignorant pre-conciliar attitudes” “disproven” by “science.”

It is interesting to note that the SSPX claims not to takes sides yet they sensor Fr. Rusak's criticism but allows Fr. Robinson free reign.

Many years ago I looked up a Catholic encyclopedia to read what it said about Noah's flood. It suggested it was a local flood in keeping with the Galilean reformation. As we now know, from 1835 when popes conceded to a new heliocentrism, that was the end to the Church's responsibility to protect the flock from FALSE PHILOSOPHY. From the moment they conceded to human reasoning over faith (the 1616 decree defining a fixed sun formal heresy) they were scared to death of making another 'SUCH ERROR IN FAITH AND SCIENCE.' Accordingly, they not only allowed every evolutionary theory right back to a big Bang to be believed by the flock, but they believed in these absurdities right to the top of the Rome.

I bet few knew that Darwin's On the Origins of Species that came out in 1859, 24 years AFTER the pro-heliocentric hoax, was NEVER PUT ON THE INDEX.

But a local flood makes a joke out of Genesis and Moses's story of this huge Ark taking years to build when all Noah had to do was to take his family on a year's holiday outside that local area. As for filling it with all those creatures and birds, well that too had to be another stupid thing to do if it was only a local flood. Such a flood suggests humans outside the area could have survived, so why did Moses tell us there were only 8 humans left after it?

And what about the theology built upon the Ark? It represents the Catholic Church, only through which one can be saved. Gee, the red Indians and Buddists must have been laughing reading that story.

Now it is all very well asserting a local flood, but what about all the what abouts. Does Robinson tell us his new theology?
Sure its no wonder Catholicism has become humanism today in so many ways.

True, the idea that the Flood was local goes against simple logic. If the flood was local and yet covered the mountains, then what was holding the water back to prevent the water from reaching beyond the local region? God would need to have a wall (higher than the mountains) around the region and then fill that with water like a big tub.
Also, Moses says serval times that it covered "all" the earth, and destroyed "all" out side the ark, so now these modernists want us to believe that the word "all" is actually "many". Where have we heard that before?

I hope and pray a lot of publicity for this is spreading in the St. Marys (and surrounding) area.  This is a golden opportunity (and free at that) for the SSPX folks and others to take advantage of.

There is an ad in the Smoke Signal, and a flyer at the super market. Several people have responded but the response if still small. (although pre-registration was not required). We hope many people will just show up.

Although the seminar had a low attendance, ranging about 20 to 36 people per conference, depending on the time of day; it was greatly received and most if not all were impressed to various degrees. One think worth noted that I think is very important to consider, is that for the first time ever ALL the local Trad-groups were represented. We had SSPX, FSSP, SAJM, Fr. Pfeiffer followers, and Fr. Hewko followers. (If there was any sedevacantsit, I was not aware). 

When have you seen all the "waring clans" come together in agreement? I think this may have been the first time since 2013 that some of these parishioners have all been together in the same building. 

I think all were edified by Edward from Uganda, to see the love of God so strong in a man dedicating his life to God traveling all over Africa, converting Muslims and making other converts. He is just now learning about the Latin Mass. I may say more about this later.

It was agreed that there needs to be another seminar, with more promotion. The FSSP said they will actively promote it this time, let us pray that the various Resistance groups and the SSPX will promote it also.

Thanks much or your timely report Mr. G.

Do you know if any audio and or visual recording was taken and if so whether it will be made available to the public?

Do you know if there was any cleric in attendance and if so can you provide any details?

Finally, do you know if there was any mention by any of the speakers of Fr. Robinson's notorious book and Robert Sungenis' responsive book to it?

1. I saw one lady record a portion of one conference, I ask if she recorded others.
2. The only cleric to show up was from the FSSP, I do not remember his name. He only came to say the opening prayer on Saturday and had to leave shortly afterwards. But next time, he and the other FSSP priests will attend.
3. No mention of either book during the presentations, but mention was made during discussions at break time.

Ironic that the liberal FSSP appears to be more traditional than the SSPX when it comes to exegesis.

Anyone out there in CatholicInfo Land willing to travel to Kansas for another seminar, maybe this July?

What specific topics would you like see addressed? 

What other speakers should be invited?

It does not necessary have to be specifically a Creation vs. Evolution event, other Catholic topics can be added.

I'm planning on traveling to western Missouri in July to visit family. It's not that far to St. Mary's from there. I'd be interested in attending.

Interesting update: I found out from a second hand source that on a SSPX Facebook page (I do not know which particular SSPX Facebook page), someone said not to attend the Kolbe Center seminar in St. Mary's (the one that happened in March) because "they are all Resistance". That is very strange and untrue accusation as all the Kolbe Center speakers attend Mass at FSSP. For someone to lie so blatantly tells me at least two things 1.) that someone is afraid that the evidence presented at this seminar will be too convincing and thus Fr. Robinson's lack of reasoning and scholarship will be exposed 2.) that anyone who is "Resistance" must be avoided, shunned and ignored with no qualifications.
