  • What is the Essex PX resistance, and why does piano man want them investigated? Sounds British.

  • It's shocking that he's been able to cover it up for so long, regarding Fr. Moran. How?


    Martinique, where he was based, is French territory. It is to France what Puerto Rico or Hawaii is to the US. Having him convicted and tried and jailed in either France or Ireland wouldn't be hard.

  • I was told 'Dr K' had, for a while at least, played the organ at the SSPX chapel in North London and that is how he originally met Fr Paul Morgan.

    As has been said above by Ladislaus there needs to be a clarifying statement by Bp Morgan confirming (a) appropriate safeguarding checks were made WRT Kelly/Ciaran Moran and (b) whether he was ordained sub-conditione and by whom.  That would settle the issue.

    Ok, now it's all making sense.  Piano guy was probably buddy-buddy with +Williamson.  But now that +W is gone (+RIP) and Bishop Morgan is in charge, the dynamic of things changed.  Piano guy's relationship with the Resistance changed once +Morgan took over, and he's not happy.  Just like when a new CEO comes into a company, things are done differently.  Happens all the time.

    That theory doesn't seem to fit imo. Even if Piano Man decided he hated Bp Morgan, he wouldn't be able to simply fabricate this Fr. Moran situation.

    I might even accept not making appropriate checks into Moran's background up front (not sure how easy that would be across different countries -- would he be listed by InterPol?) ... as at worst an act of negligence, and at best just inability to figure out how to check.  If negligence, then it's serious, but not something that could not be corrected and taken for a "lesson learned".  

    What I'd be more concerned about is it could be established that Bishop Morgan knew about Moran's background but insisted on continue working with him despite the danger he might potentially pose ... and it would compound the problem if he is in fact, as has been alleged, blocking people just for demanding answers.

    On a related matter, a purported letter from +Vigano indicates that this WAS the case for +Ballini, where +Ballini was informed but then refused to sever a working relationship with him.  I would accept +Vigano's testimony that this is in fact the case ... just that the purported letter from +Vigano could easily have been fabricated, so we'd need to rule that out.

    How long was it, though?  From what I read Moran was put on trial / investigation in 2022 and finally convicted in June 2024.

  • Piano Man does not have a low IQ. He can't be that stupid. He must have a reason for "picking a fight" with CathInfo for insane reasons, and sending people here.

    Almost as if he's been forbidden to name the priest, but he knows the priest's name is found in this thread.

    Yeah, that might explain why he keeps saying "Father Fake", because evidently over there one can be arrested for writing an e-mail and possibly sued for defamation, i.e. people who named Moran here on CI would over there be arrested, prosecuted, or at least harassed for doing so.

  • Clearly Piano Man isn't being emotional AT ALL here... ::)

    Plenty of us are married, so... not involuntary celebate.
    I may not have a stone chapel like he has, or a six figure income from Youtube, but I do have a house with 5 acre property, so... not in my mom's basement.
    Most CI members have normal homes -- not living with parents.

    CI members hold a wide variety of views and opinions on just about everything. We are not cult members, who all adhere to the same opinions/views. We all think for ourselves. We don't all agree on anything, except maybe the Catholic Faith.

    But he's wrong about ANY of us being tolerant of ANY level of child abuse or sɛҳuąƖ deviancy in the clergy. We are as intolerant of this as he COULD EVER PRETEND to be.

    To be charitable, I will call out Piano Man for being very SUPERFICIAL and IGNORANT regarding his whole attack on CathInfo. He really needs to get a clue about what CathInfo is, and what the "SSPX Resistance" is. Because he is currently laboring under some SERIOUS ignorance.

    Yeah, he appears to be snowflaking out here due to what began as very mild and subtle criticism, and then making strawmen like we're all attacking him in order to run cover for Bishop Morgan and to condone whatever malfeasance he may be guilty of.  Sounds like his ego has been bruised, and now he's lashing out making false accusations, things that evidently he could be arrested for over there ... as per your debunking of his claims above here, Matthew.

    I'd say Piano Dude is slandering us by claiming that we condone predation upon children, quite the contrary.  He should grow up and realize that we're just trying to get the facts before dragging Bishop Morgan out, lynching him, or, over there, drawing and quartering him in the public square.  Many people have been subjected to flase accusations, ruining their good name ... and we simply do not want to commit such a grave injustice.

    I'm sure that every single poster here, to a person, would be outraged if in fact it were established that Bishop Morgan had been knowing working with a predator who has not only been credibly accused by even found guilty in formal proceedings.  I'd be calling for his arrest, personally.

    So this whole notion of circling the wagons to defend predation upon children ... that's completely false and slanderous.

    If Piano Man keeps it up, we should consider bringing a defamation lawsuit against him, eh? ... since he has a huge audience.

    Mr. Piano Man, please make a retraction of some of your false and defamatory accusations against us, or else you may be the subject of a defamation suit.

    True.  But the opposite is also true...Even if Piano Man decided he hated Bp Morgan, would he completely do a 180 and hate the Resistance (and start trashing Tradition itself)?

    Unless he is associating Fr Moran with Bp Morgan, as an example of the 'new resistance' (i.e. post +Williamson)? 

    Seems to me that Piano guy has 2 complaints:  a) the new resistance leadership in england and b) this Fr Moran situation.

    If this Fr Moran was an isolated incident, then I don't think Piano guy would be so quick to give up Traditionalism as a 'cult'.  Unless he never truly 'bought in' to what the Resistance stood for in the first place. 

    ...which highlights the problems that the new-sspx/resistance have, in as far as a 'ticking time bomb' of allowing more and more "not-really-Trads-but-I-like-the-latin-mass" people into their chapels.  It's just a matter of time before these people betray/leave the new-sspx/resistance.  These people were never truly Trads.

  • I don't think anyone says he's fabricating the "Fr. Moran situation".  What we don't know and has only been promoted by little evidence, and mosly by insinuation ... is Bishop Morgan's role in the matter.

  • Also important to note that the email stated Fr Moran was found guilty of:


    Quote
    acts contrary to the sixth commandment with a minor

    This is vague, and could mean anything from assaulting a pre pubescent child to fornicating with a girl 17 years, 11 months, and 30 days old. The email references Canon law only when pronouncing his guilt.

    So, is it not possible that while he was found guilty by the Church of "acts...with a minor", said minor was older than the age of consent..therefore no criminal trial by the state? 

    Basically, you cannot label him a "child abuser" or a "pedophile" based off of the information given

    And to any visitors reading this..in case you get the wrong idea..if Fr Moran is only guilty of what I proposed above , he should still be blacklisted by Trad clergy and groups. I'm merely pointing out that no one has all the info required to call him a child abuser or pedophile

  • If you have a better hypothesis, I'm all ears. But for now, that seems to be the most likely explanation.

    Well, one hypothesis, Matthew, is that you set this whole thing up precisely in order to get Piano Man to send traffic to CathInfo ... :laugh1:  If so, well played.

    Yeah, let's draw the line here.  I don't care what he did in graphic detail.  Even absent any details, he poses a threat.  If he's capable of acting contrary to purity with minors (doesn't matter if they're "JUST" under 18) ... then he's a danger to children, since he can't control his impure impulses, even with youngsters.  It may be she was "17" now, but the next one might be 15, 13, 10?  This is good enough to definitely ban him from any "priestly ministry", as the Conciliars would phrase it.  Let's not actually start even implicitly condoning this filth.  Even the slightest hint of this and he needed to be jettisoned.

    Archbishop Vigano stated that based on what he knew (and evidently he didn't now all the details either) ... that Moran should not be permitted to have anything to do with youngsters and that no one should be working with him.  He's 100% spot on.
