Father Bolduc warned me about the TFP when I asked him about it. If my memory properly serves me, he also described it as a cult.
Regarding the "litany," it's been cited here before in other threads by others. I'm sorry if that was just a joke written by a couple of disrespectful students.
Ladislaus, friend here. No need to throw ad hominems at me.
Father Bolduc was a saintly man, and if he thought they were rotten, then it's a pretty good bet, considering how knowledgable he was, and how many, many people he knew, that he was being honest, and I'd lean towards what he said on the matter.
Others that had dealings with told me that if you didn't have any money to give them, you were basically fodder to them. If you were rich, however, they'd do anything they could to get your money.
Father Bolduc warned us about, as well as a couple people that had close dealings with them, including one man who had a vocation, but due to the anti-clerical attitude of the TFP, he ended up basically being one of their slaves and being too old to join an order once he woke up and figured out what their real agenda is. Anytime someone would put anything in the back of Church that was theirs (which people would have to get his permission to put back there, and usually didn't if it were from TFP) he would toss it right into the garbage bin.
I maintain that they're a cult, and I won't back down on that much, but the litany I was unaware was a spoof. Knowing what I know about the TFP, it seemed plausable enough and I do apologize for believing that it was actually something they believed and not a spoof like it is. But, now I know, and thanks for bringing that to my attention. It still doesn't change what I already know about them.
Also, you read some of their agendas, they're neo-cons, and it's actually sickening to me some of the stupidity of the stuff they put out. Here are some examples.

Here's what the novus ordo bishops are saying about them

Boy they're really towing the line here.
