As the New Yorker, Father Purdy said, his view of "success" means winning the Lotto.

Since the SSPX dropped the vow of poverty for their holy religious , it means he could then buy a nice new pickup truck.



For his Philippino fans, it may mean winning the US Green Card lottery?

For Catholics introduced to the Devotion of Our Lady of Good Success by Dr. Marian and Atila, it means confidence that Our Lady will intercede to bring success to our earnest & prayerful intentions if they are deserving in the Eyes of God.

Perhaps you can explain how "success" ties in with the Purification of our Lady. What would "success" mean in relation to the Purification?
Success lies in the purification of Our Lady because her there is no success without Jesus and all of her mysteries are ordered to the coming and Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

At least you tie in the Purification with your assessment above. That's more than those who only call Her "Our Lady of Good Success" do.

Our Lady said to Mother Mariana:

"He (the bishop) shall consecrate my statue with holy oil and give it the name 'Maria del Buen Suceso de la Purification.' […] It is under this invocation that I desire to be known throughout time for the preservation of my convent and its inhabitants."

Here's part two of Fr. Purdy's conference talk, where he explains the history and sacrifice of the Purification of Our Lady. I haven't watched it yet, but will do so after I get back from Mass today.

You believe that I'm an SSPX troll because I see merit in the talks of Fr. Purdy?

It's true that I do not believe that all SSPX are bad, as you evidently do. I don't think that the four Resistance bishops think that all of the SSPX priests are bad. IMO, they understand the virtue of charity and hope. They are quite different from Plinio de Oliveira in this regard.

So far, in the videos of Fr. Purdy here, I haven't seen that he has complained about the problems with the TIA/disciples of Plineo. Perhaps he is more concerned about other things than criticizing the TIA/disciples of Plinio. I cannot speak for him, and maybe I'm wrong, but perhaps he doesn't see everyone who disagrees with his views as an enemy.
