I believe HE (Williamson) is wrong, and judging by the erection of the SAJM I believe bishop Faure disagrees with him as well. The real problem is, are all the Resistance priests ready to give up their new found independence? Are all Resistance priests willing to travel around the world, or do some of them prefer to settle in one cozy spot? And those people who found such a stationary priest, are they willing to give up their daily or weekly Mass so that their priest can travel the world in pursuit of other starting sheep?
The rest of the post was very good, but I am sorry to see you peddle this nonsense Samuel.
NOWHERE is it written that priests must organize in a group. The idea that we can create some kind of parallel Church is nonsense and total fantasy. Fantasy in that it is refusal of the mind to face up with reality.
What I find perverse and insidious also is the condescension used by those who believe in this fantasy towards priests who chose not to join a group. As if they are some kind of inferior foolish beings. In some cases it is quite the contrary!
Fantasy also in that it is a refusal to learn the lessons from history. We have seen what a monolith like the SSPX can do. How one man can destroy everything. This doesn't mean all organization is bad, nor that everyone should be independent. A balanced approach is needed.
Fantasy also in that there is a cultish type worship around the SAJM by some, now developing in the Resistance. These proud people will only get more arrogant as the years go on because the SAJM has the seminary, and it will be used to hang over faithful who want priests to keep them quiet. By certain priests and faithful, not all of course, but the arrogant ones tend to be those who make the most noise.
As has always been the case with liberalism.
