Fr. Pfeiffer has said he has met third generation Trad youngsters at St. Mary's who do not even know who +Abp. LeFevbre [sic] is.
So what? Is there reason to think that the pious archbishop would have wanted the situation to be otherwise?
*Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre (to do him the courtesy of spelling his name correctly) was plainly a man who would have regarded the posthumous bestowal upon him of celebrity status as morally inappropriate, if not repellent. As his epitaph declares, his life's aim was to pass on what he had been bequeathed—namely, the Faith, whole and entire—no more, no less. While he would have looked forward to receiving the prayerful remembrance owed to the founder of any Church-approved clerical order by its present-day members, it is hardly imaginable that he would have succuмbed to the grandiosity of expecting or desiring that children think of him alongside Our Lady or Saint Joseph—or even their favorite baseball team's star slugger or pitcher.
That Father Pfeiffer might say something as foolish as this is unsurprising—the extent to which his spirituality is disordered has been thoroughly docuмented here at CI—but it is very distasteful to see commenters striving to match Father Pfeiffer's witlessness.

*For the information of CI's equivalent of third-gen youngsters, that's an example of a rhetorical question whose answer is no.
