Quote from: Columba

I do not have statistics, but it seems anecdotally that many more conservative American priests are being sent over seas to make way for an inundation of more liberal French priests , especially in the leadership positions. It feels like a kind of sly cultural imperialism.

Does anyone else notice such a trend or have access to the statistics?

Yes, +Williamson replaced at the Winona seminary by Fr. le Roux, Fr. Rostand made district superior, and many French priests placed as Priors in the USA. It is just the Menzingen crowd putting in the people they can trust to follow instructions.

Remember how they would always be moving priests around in the USA? Now we know the reason, it was so that those priests would not develop a following. You won't see them moving their new plants.
