Carry On, Crusaders! Remember you have the chrism of your confirmation upon your shoulders, with the Holy Ghost covering your back! You can look at the comments of the Post Falls conference, to form questions, and be ready with their stupid responses!
God Bless You !

Father Themann is so talented and seems just made for the priesthood.

It's sad to seem him sucked into the neoSSPX politics and used as a front-man.
Let's pray that he receives the grace to wake-up and come out of it.
-
I would be very surprised if there is much of an opportunity for Q&A, as the damage control tour generally resembles a party line communique format.
And I would be even more surprised, if there were an opportunity for Q&A, if any resistance parishioners spoke out, knowing that since most people have already chosen sides, the conference will be more of a high school pep rally than an honest exploration of the major points of contention.
These events are to rally the troops, not to give a platform to the arguments of the other side, and that being the case, it would take a special breed to walk into the lions den and ask the hard questions (if the opportunity to do so will even exist in the first place).
-
The "suit & tie" group probably have the pre arranged questions ready to go.
-
Pray that many poor souls are woke up this evening. It is at 7 p.m central time. Perhaps say your rosaries during that time? God bless!

And if Father Pfeiffer were to show-up and ask some questions...

It would be like T-Rex enjoying his lunch.

Father Pfieffer would probably be accused of child abuse.

I don't know about that picture, Incred. I can't help but see an altar set up before the "TV god". :stare: Perhaps there's not actually a TV in there.

Okay, it's probably over now.
ANY NEWS????
It takes some dedication to keep up with this stuff. I hope some of
the attendees were well prepared.
It might come to having picket lines, you know, lots of volunteers
with banners, flags, posters-on-a-stick, chanting slogans. So long as
you stay on the sidewalk and keep moving they can't arrest you for
peaceful assembly. The only way for the Menzingen-denizens to get
up a charge of "inciting a riot" would be if THEY PROVIDE THE RIOT.
Well, let them go ahead and provide the riot then. That would be great!

Dear sspxbvm,
I checked out your page and it looks pretty good. I would like to offer a
couple of suggestions, if you're interested: "We pray that, as often is the
case, negative publicity is better than no publicity and that many honest
and sincere souls are awoken this Tuesday evening." This ought to say
"...sincere souls are awakened this Tuesday evening." Also, when you
capitalize "Apostate Rome" it looks like a proper noun, and I dare you to
find it on a map. So it's a "subjective reality" and as such, makes you
look like a liberal.. I would suggest using "apostate Rome," or at most use
italics, like this: "apostate Rome." This occurs 5 times on this page,
so one correction would be multiplied by 5. There are other things, too
but I don't want to upset you with too many details. Those two things
would add a lot to your credibility.

HE WON'T read out to us the terms of the Doctrinal Preamble of April 15, 2012 between Bishop Fellay and [apostate] Rome and explain to us what it really means and what its consequences could be.
This is a great point.
My observation on this is, that +Fellay has not acknowledged his response.
This is properly termed his 15 April 2012 Response to the Doctrinal Preamble
of September 14th, 2011 from Rome. +W refers to it as the "Doctrinal
Declaration (of the SSPX), addressed by the General Council of the Society
of St Pius X to the Church authorities in Rome."
But I like to ask, "Why has +Fellay not acknowledged it?" Bishop Williamson
made it a topic of an entire EC which was probably his most technical EC ever.
He did not hold back on the jargon and lexicon in his Letter to the Priests that
came two weeks before that EC 300, 13 Apr. 2013 (OPEN LETTER TO PRIESTS
of the SOCIETY of ST PIUS X, 28 March 2013, Holy Thursday (http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php/Ellison-Comments-Open-letter-to-priests-of)). It is a hard read
by anyone's standards. He gave the priests a 2-week window to study up
before getting pounded by the Faithfuls' questions!
And +Fellay got all worked up into a tizzy over it. He DID NOT WANT that
response of his leaked out. Now it comes out that he had shared it with the
other 3 bishops and a select small group (a.k.a. the Menzingen-denizens) in
April and May of 2012, but he SWORE THEM TO SECRECY. Now why would
he bother to make them swear to secrecy? Because he does not want the
lemmings in the pews to know about this! Because it contains principles
that are CONTRADICTORY to the openly expressed truths that ABL gave
out freely to all the Faithful of the world, without restriction.
So now, when anyone chimes in with the Accordista canard of "how do you
know that's really the Response of +Fellay to Rome" all you have to do is
tell them, "Well, if it is NOT, then why has +Fellay not denied it? After all,
if it was FALSE, then all he would have to do is SAY SO, and say "THIS IS
FALSE." But he doesn't do that, does he? No, he doesn't. He hasn't,
he isn't, and he won't!! HOW DO I KNOW that? Because, he does not want
the Faithful thinking about it.
And this is how he accomplishes that trick: To Keep Everyone From
Thinking About It, He Simply Pretends It's Not Authentic.
You know, he has claimed that other things are "Internet rumours" and the
like, but notice how he has been frequently VAGUE about the object of his
accusation. WHAT is the "rumour" to which he refers? He doesn't say!
And why not? Well, he lets you think you are "smart" by figuring it out on
your own. He says it without saying it. This is a Communist tactic, one of
the errors of Russia, only it is WE who are doing it, by following his evil
leadership. In this way, he has not said that the Response that +W has
disseminated by way of his unforgivable ECs is a "rumour" that we should
ignore, but even though he has not said it, he still has all the lemmings
believing it!!
TA - DAAA!!
Rabbit out of the hat trick!
And now for the clincher: Why does he not just say "That is not my
Response?" Because then someone with one or two brain cells left
between their ears is going to ask, "OKAY, IF THAT ISN'T YOUR RESPONSE,
THEN SHOW US WHAT YOUR RESPONSE ACTUALLY WAS!!" And what's he
going to do? Admit that he doesn't want you to see it? No way!! That's the
truth but he does not want you to think about that truth.
So to keep you from thinking about demanding to see his Response to
the Doctrinal Preamble (Oh, right - the Doctrinal Preamble from 19 months
ago that we STILL HAVE NOT SEEN!!), he simply neglects to "even go there."
And the lap-cat-lemmings sit there and let him pet you and you purr.
Purr, Pray, Pay and Obey!
The Newmass needed Annibale Bugnini, Communism in Venezuela needed
Hugo Chavez, nαzι Germany needed Adolf Hitler, and the Neo-SSPX needs
B. Fellay.
-
It's a good thing the first three are dead.
-
Here is my prediction:
Massive and overwhelming support for Bishop Fellay;
Few if any relevant questions squarely answered;
The couple resisters that dared try to raise the questions immediately and overwhelmingly shouted down;
Applause for every word from Fr. Themann's mouth.
There is no crisis in the SSPX was the conclusion.
How close was I?

Father Themann gave the same type of conference up at the seminary a few weeks ago. I printed out a "tract" to distribute at the conference, but I couldn't get to Mass that day, because I got snowed in. The title of the conference was "The Legitimacy of Discussions with Rome." The title of my tract was "Archbishop Lefebvre on the Legitimacy of Discussions with Rome." I collected some of the Archbishop's most powerful quotes, verified their authenticity, and asked some obvious questions in between each quote. I will try to upload the .docx file for anyone who is interested. If you don't want to download the file, then here is the tract in Cathinfo format:
Archbishop Lefebvre
On the Legitimacy of Discussions with Rome
“I said to him [Cardinal Ratzinger who became Pope Benedict XVI], ‘Even if you grant us a bishop, even if you grant us some autonomy from the bishops, even if you grant us the 1962 Liturgy, even if you allow us to continue running our seminaries in the manner we are doing it right now—we cannot work together! It is impossible! Impossible! Because we are working in diametrically opposing directions; you are working to de-Christianize society, the human person, and the Church, and we are working to Christianize them. We cannot get along together!’ Rome has lost the Faith, my dear friends, Rome is in apostasy! I am not speaking empty words! That is the truth! Rome is in apostasy! One can no longer have any confidence in those people! They have left the Church! They have left the Church! They are leaving the Church! It is certain! Certain! Certain! (Rome est dans l’apostasie! On ne peut plus avoir confiance dans ce monde-là, il a quitté l’Église, ils ont quitté l’Église, ils quittent l’Église! C’est sûr, sûr, sûr!) October 4, 1987
“What could be clearer? We must [according to Rome] henceforth obey and be faithful to the Conciliar Church, no longer to the Catholic Church. Right there is our whole problem: we are suspended a divinis by the Conciliar Church, the Conciliar Church, to which we have no wish to belong! That Conciliar Church is a schismatic church because it breaks with the Catholic Church that has always been. It has its new dogmas, its new priesthood, its new institutions, its new worship… The Church that affirms such errors is at once schismatic and heretical. This Conciliar Church is, therefore, not Catholic. To whatever extent Pope, Bishops, priests, or the faithful adhere to this new church, they separate themselves from the Catholic Church.” (Archbishop Lefebvre, Reflections on his suspension a divinis, July 29, 1976.)
Is it not normal to be a little worried about coming under religious authorities who have “left the Church”?
How can Catholics justify submitting to religious authorities who have “lost the Faith”?
If the “Conciliar Church” was “schismatic and heretical” in 1976, then is it not still “schismatic and heretical” in 2013?
SSPX bishops, priests, and faithful worldwide have been asking these questions ever since their leaders began to speak differently from Archbishop Lefebvre. How soon will we have an answer?
When asked by Fideliter magazine, “What do you think of a possible re-opening of a dialogue with Rome?” Archbishop Lefebvre made the following clear reply:
“We do not have the same outlook on a reconciliation. Cardinal Ratzinger sees it as reducing us, bring us back to Vatican II. We see it as a return of Rome to Tradition. We don’t agree; it is a dialogue of death. I can’t speak much of the future, mine is behind me; but if I live a little while, supposing that Rome calls for a new dialogue, then, I will put conditions. I shall not accept being put in the position where I was during the dialogue. No more.
“I will put the discussion at the doctrinal level. ‘Do you agree with the great encyclicals of all the popes who preceded you? Do you agree with Quanta Cura of Pius IX, Immortale Dei and Libertas of Leo XIII, Pascendi Gregis of Pius X, Quas Primas of Pius XI, Humani Generis of Pius XII? Are you in full communion with these popes and their teachings? Do you still accept the entire Anti-Modernist Oath? Are you in favor of the social reign of Our Lord Jesus Christ? If you do not accept the doctrine of your predecessors, it is useless to talk! As long as you do not accept the correction of the Council, in consideration of the doctrine of these Popes, your predecessors, no dialogue is possible. It is useless.” (Fideliter, November-December 1988, quoted by Fr. Laisney in Archbishop Lefebvre and the Vatican, p. 223-224. Emphasis added.)
Was Benedict XVI able to answer “yes” to these questions of the saintly Archbishop during his pontificate? Were the cardinals able to? Are any of them able to answer “yes” today? Do any of the Roman authorities “accept the doctrine of [their] predecessors”?
Didn’t the Roman authorities clearly answer “no” to all of these questions during the Society’s doctrinal discussions?
Are the leaders of the SSPX still asking these questions to the Roman authorities?
Is unity in the Catholic Faith one of the General Chapter’s six conditions for making an agreement with Rome?
Then we must conclude, along with Archbishop Lefebvre, that any discussions with Roman authorities in their current state of “apostasy” are “useless”—including those of last year.
Why has SSPX policy changed so radically?
If the Archbishop couldn’t convert Rome, then nobody can—except the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Why not simply stay Catholic in our chapels, as we have been doing for many years, while praying and waiting for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the return of Rome to the Catholic Faith?

Here is another tract I've drawn up, this one based on the SSPX big guns' letter to Cardinal Gantin in the wake of the phony excommunications of '88. Notice how the language has changed, 24 1/2 years later!
Open Letter to Cardinal Gantin
Prefect of the Congregation for Bishops
Ecône, July 6, 1988
Eminence,
Gathered around our Superior General, the Superiors of the Districts, Seminaries and autonomous houses of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X think it good to respectfully express to you the following reflections.
You thought it good, by your letter of July 1st, to inform Their Excellencies Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, Bishop Antonio de Castro Mayer, and the four Bishops whom they consecrated on June 30, at Ecône, of the excommunication latæ sententiæ. We let you judge for yourself the value of such a declaration, coming from an authority who, in its exercise, breaks with all its predecessors down to Pope Pius XII, in worship, teaching and government of the Church.
As for us, we are in full communion with all the Popes and Bishops before the Second Vatican Council, celebrating precisely the Mass which they codified and celebrated, teaching the Catechism which they drew up, standing up against the errors which they have many times condemned in their encyclicals and pastoral letters. We let you judge on which side the rupture is to be found. We are extremely saddened by the blindness of spirit and the hardening of heart of the Roman authorities.
On the other hand, we have never wished to belong to this system which calls itself the Conciliar Church, and defines itself with the Novus Ordo Missæ, an ecuмenism which leads to indifferentism and the laicization of all society. Yes, we have no part, nullam partem habemus, with the pantheon of the religions of Assisi; our own excommunication by a decree of Your Eminence or of another Roman Congregation would only be the irrefutable proof of this. We ask for nothing better than to be declared out of communion with this adulterous spirit which has been blowing in the Church for the last 25 years; we ask for nothing better than to be declared outside of this impious communion of the ungodly. We believe in the One God, Our Lord Jesus Christ, with the Father and the Holy Ghost, and we will always remain faithful to His unique Spouse, the One Holy Catholic Apostolic and Roman Church.
To be publicly associated with this sanction which is inflicted upon the six Catholic Bishops, Defenders of the Faith in its integrity and wholeness, would be for us a mark of honor and a sign of orthodoxy before the faithful. They have indeed a strict right to know that the priests who serve them are not in communion with a counterfeit church, promoting evolution, Pentecostalism and syncretism. In union with these faithful, we make ours the words of the Prophet: “Præparate corda vestra Domino et servite Illi soli: et liberabit vos de manibus inimicorum vestrorum. Convertimini ad Eum in toto corde vestro, et auferte deos alienos de medio vestri—Open your hearts to the Lord and serve Him only: and He will free you from the hands of your enemies. With all your heart return to Him, and take away from your midst any strange gods” (I Kings 7:3).
Confident in the protection of Her who has crushed all the heresies in the world, we assure Your Eminence of our dedication to Him Who is the only Way of salvation.

Can SSPX leaders still say that they “have never wished to belong to this system which calls itself the Conciliar Church”?
The superior general and the district superiors of 1988 put their personal signatures on this letter. Today, any priest who publicly warns the faithful against entering “full communion” with this “system” is punished by the current superior general and district superiors. We faithful, all around the world, are asking, “Why?” and no one is answering us! Is it no longer a “sign of orthodoxy” to be out of communion with the Conciliar Church?

That's really astounding, VCR. Like night and day.
What a difference a quarter century makes,
apparently.

Fr. Jean Michel Faure, District Superior of Mexico
Is he the same one who is now a Resistance priest?

http://ourladysresistance.org/what-to-expect-at-april-16-conference.html
I get "FILE NOT FOUND" when I try that link.
This is a good example of why we ought to upload important pages
to CI where they'll have a better chance of preservation, it seems.
BTW - if you'd like to hear a conference from Kansas City that was
actually worth listening to, go here (http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=26253). -- Actually, it was a sermon
at Mass, not a "conference."
It's interesting how pew-sitters who pretend to be in favor of
defending the Faith don't want to be bothered sitting still for a long
sermon. I met one recently who believes that 10 minutes should be
the limit for any sermon. What reasonable content can a priest
condense into 10 minutes?
How can these people expect they will have the perseverance to
suffer martyrdom if they want no more than 10 minutes for a sermon?
Fr. Hewko speaks about the Cristeros in the first post at a Boston KY
conference. Then in the second post, he gives a 52-minute sermon on
the similarity of our current SSPX crisis and the protestant revolt in
England during the 16th century.
Just about the only difference is that this crisis is not openly bloody
as that one was, 500 years ago, but watch out - the blood is not
far away, at this rate!
Much of his sermon is reading and analyzing a letter written to the
Faithful, by St. Robert Southwell, who was executed in erstwhile
Merry Ol' England for defending the Faith of Catholics at the tender
age of 39.

Sorry, forgot to mention: this is the Opening Post for this thread:

Whatever it is that we were to expect at the April 16 conference has
apparently been forgotten because the link doesn't work anymore,
only 3 months later.

Yes, the same.....he was at the 25th Anniversary Vienna gathering in late June. Very humble and very intelligent.........a wonderful addition to the Resistance. He would have made a great Bishop, still true to ABL (and Our Lord!), like +Williamson.

They should join the Novus Ordo, where a 10-minute sermon is a long one! Actually, if they stay with +Fellay, that's where they will end up.

Father Morello is a independent Bishop. He was expelled from sspx. He is affiliated with Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel Monroe Connecticut.
How did he get to be a "Bishop"?

I heard Father Morello was/is a sedevacantist and that is why he was expelled from the SSPX.
