SSPX Resistance News / Re: Fr. Hewko's cult is TRASH
« Last post by Matthew on Today at 08:27:46 AM »I gave you a 👍🏼, but do keep in mind there ARE people who are 5 hours or more from a traditional chapel. I’ve been one of them when the border between the US and Canada was closed to those who didn’t take Fauxi 💉. It was very upsetting, being involuntarily home alone. For three months, I didn’t have internet, either, without driving 90 minutes or longer to a town with a store where I could sometimes pick up a weak signal if I parked around the back near the loading dock.
Believe me it had nothing to do with self-deluded pride in my “holier-than-thouness.” If there were any other traditional Catholics nearby, it was news to me. I was in the middle of nowhere. Beautiful country, but it got too much to manage. My nearest neighbors were a lesbian couple. My best friends, however, were free of sin. I still miss the dogs, but the cat is still with me. In fact, she’s in her usual nighttime location, on my bed nestled in the crook of my knees!
Yes, this is classic "home aloner" vs "dogmatic home aloner" -- with basically the same answer.
Specifically:
Yes, there are people who have no Trad options; there ARE Trad "deserts" out there. Obviously having a Mass more than 5 hrs away, or even unavailable, is not your fault in such a case. Lack of nearby Masses, in this case, has nothing to do with pickiness, pride, etc.
I'm talking about the majority of Trads. Most Trads, over the years, try to NOT end up in places like Arkansas with 0 SSPX chapels. (now there might be non-SSPX options, but I'm not familiar with them, as I have never lived in Arkansas, etc.) If they do find themselves there (post-Conversion for example), they tend to move and eventually migrate closer to some place with a chapel -- if they can.
In all cases, Trads should at least desire or even try to move somewhere less than 2 hours from a Traditional Mass they can tolerate. I mean, we're talking about the Mass! I mean, what other priority would a person have?
