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.
Lady Meg,
Fr. Purdy cares far more about his SSPX "political mission" to undermine TIA/TFP than the historical & spiritual significance of the Quito Shrine.
As most trads know, the SSPX has no scholarship or scholars. They use 3rd party sources or home-grown sycophants, like Fr. Robinson.
The SSPX's Quito campaign is slick, utilizing their Dutch branding co. and conciliar marketing resources.
newChurch obviously wants to give them an entre' into the major Marian Shrines for the prestige, publicity and money they'll need to posture as the leaders of tradition.
Your argumentation ignores the scholarly contribution TIA gave to the Catholic world about a Marian Devotion that had been purposefully buried by Quito's notorious Freemasonic lodges.
Even Menzingen was clueless about Quito until they read TIA's works.
So, if you don't perceive yourself as helping the SSPX cause, go hang-out with Jade Liboro. She and Fr. Purdy are probably so happy with you, they will buy you lunch.
