Fr. Pfeiffer is doing the best he can. I am not against his style of delivery although he should drop his opposition to SVs. I am too wary of polished performances from those with large fancy endowments; instead I am endeared to those with holes in their shoes!
Regarding legitimacy, I can remind those who may be without about throwing stones. I consider tedious formality to be less in importance to genuine conviction and there we may have to give some benefit of the doubt. In these irregular times, beggars cannot be choosers.
