These poor souls have had their minds frazzled by OLMC, as happens with most cults. This mentality is demonstrated by the fact that both Fr Pfeiffer and Fr Hewko think that they are the RESISTANCE, and nobody else comes up to match.

Everyone stop giving them money and they may then start to listen when the $$$ run low.

OLMC is not a cult. Fathers Pfeiffer and Hewko are part of the Resistance. They are not perfect, but they are not cult leaders, nor do they deserve to be labeled as such.

Mr Rogers is nothing compared to St Francis de Sales.

It's time to grow up and become Catholic.

What makes you think that I am neither grown up and that I am not Catholic?

Is this line of dialogue necessary, or constructive?

Father recently discussed the blue papers at our Mass site. Some of the quoted passages do raise some questions which I would love to have answered, in order to remove any uncertainty or doubt. I feel that these questions are better left directed to the author of the blue paper, before any public assessment of the writing in question.

How could I send my questions to Father Zendejas? I would rather ask questions than leave it to speculation.

I think you ought to give that good advice to Father Pfeiffer before he does anymore any more sermon based speculation which reflects badly upon Father Zendejas's good name.

So I'm deducing that they red light Bishops Faure and Williamson?

Sad to say, yes.

They are in full-on attack mode right now.

And yes, those Catholics dependent on Fr. Pfeiffer's organization for Mass -- many of whom have become "followers" of Fr. Pfeiffer -- resort to Sedevacantist chapels, the neo-SSPX, or the Indult for Mass in the many weeks they find themselves without the Sacraments.

But to be honest, many others are quick to switch to a more sane organization like Fr. Zendejas, whenever they get a chance.

Remember, the neo-SSPX itself was first with this hypocrisy. Remember in CT the SSPX priest said it was OK to go to the Novus Ordo for Ash Wednesday, but not Fr. Zendejas because "we don't like him".

Fr. Pfeiffer has learned well how to be SSPX. He imitates them better than he ever should! He impresses on his followers that the ONE evil is to attend the Mass of his "enemies" +Williamson and Fr. Zendejas. The Indult? Who cares. He has no emotional animus towards the Indult, so he spends little to no time denouncing them.

Fr. Pfeiffer acts like a Sedevacantist, even though he firmly fights Sedevacantism on the surface. Interesting how many of his followers are quick to resort to sedevacantism, or become sedevacantists...

(No offense to the Sedevacantists on here who have the Faith -- having the Faith being the one thing that truly matters...) I'm just saying.

Hello to all. I am new to this Forum, although I've been reading it for a couple of weeks. I became interested in The Resistance after reading something about it on the internet last winter, and we considered attending a Mass. However, I balked after watching a couple of Father Pfeiffer's videos, mainly because he didn't make the Sign of the Cross on his forehead, lips, and chest, before a Gospel reading. This happened on camera a few times anyways, and I felt aside from that, unfortunately, that the attitude conveyed was more slapdash than devout. Sorry, but that was my impression.

It has also been my understanding for quite a few years now that the SSPX has an unfortunate record of pursuing monetary disagreements with priests in various locations across the country. I came across instances more than once online, as well as anecdotally in personal conversations. Is it true that some former SSPX priests have had serious financial difficulties like this, through 'misunderstandings'?

Recently reading the letter of Father Voigt and reflecting on the thousands of dollars of his own money he generously advanced to keep the Kentucky seminary functioning, and the 'thanks he received'.... I ask myself if these kinds of situations are unusual, after all.

So if the conduct of former SSPX priests, namely Fathers Pfeiffer and Hewko, appears disappointing to some now, I am not too surprised.

Saddened also, as once I myself had hopes that The Resistance would be a place of refuge for believing Traditional Catholics.

We are very happy now that we stayed away.

There are many things out there, on this site and others, that convey only part of the story on any given situation. There are few willing or able to go further than what is presented. I do believe that many of the situations presented here are not as they seem, as there are too many willing to base their writings on speculation and ones own thoughts on the matter at hand, and not enough on objective facts. They act on an incomplete database and a strong bias. This has caused much damage within the resistance.
