It's not entirely weird to suggest that he might have an account on here. And that it could actually be Sam Smith.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I am definitely NOT Michael Voris.

The reception here to the story is very disappointing and a sad statement on Catholics. 

It's very similar to how The Remnant Newspaper reacted to the Boston Globe's report on abuse in the Church in 2002. There was much weeping and gnashing of teeth and cries of "this is just a plot against the Church."

Yet, here we are nearly 20 years later and after all the individual state grand jury reports showing the stunning VOLUME of crimes by priests is not in dispute.

It seems like too many here are in some state of hysterical spiritual blindness. So what if it happened in your backyard, or at your favorite priestly society? Why does that make you unable to accept the facts? Don't you want the corruption out? Doesn't the truth matter? Because it seems like more people here care about shooting the messenger than giving careful consideration to the facts.

So, you're saying you object to the Epistles written by St. Paul and believe he has no business teaching morality since in his past life he was a great sinner and persecutor of Christians who participated in the killing of St. Stephen?

A common tactic in histrionic, pilpul-like argumentation I've noticed is to take an extreme and extraordinary exception to a rule, and use that to judge a scenario far from exceptional, far from extraordinary, in order to make the rational opponent question the rational application of ordinary rules to ordinary scenarios. 

We can agree, I hope, that St. Paul is a singularly extraordinary example (the only true Apostle not among the Twelve called by Our Lord in his earthly ministry, but after His Resurrection). So why do we need to jump to him in the case of Voris - a man whom - I hope we can agree - is neither singular nor extraordinary? Ordinary, common-sense rules about recently active sodomites taking positions of leadership in the life of the Church ought to apply to him, no matter how much of an extraordinary Special Boy he may fancy himself to be.

What about the Church's policy against ordaining sodomitically-inclined men? Do you object? If not, then the same rationale should apply here. If you do - kindly explain yourself.

Sam,


In case you hadn’t noticed, this forum is dedicated to exposing the errors of the neo-SSPX.


But your ardent support of the pseudo “Church Militant” sex scandal campaign, only tells you must be a troll in Voris’s camp.

Well said. 

Voris is Grima Wormtongue in a Justin Bieber bouffant. It's never advisable to accept the help of devils in casting out devils.
