The STAS Letter to Friends and Benefactors by Fr. Le Roux, which I received today, explains that:

"The prize is a Jaguar, not to encourage a disordered concupiscence, but to make this fundraiser attractive to other people who otherwise perhaps would not contribute to the goal that we have in mind.

Knowing that your personal resources are not unlimited, this "Giveaway" is primarily addressed to people of your acquaintance who are not in Tradition and who perhaps could, in this roundabout way, discover it..."

I am wondering whether the practical result of this giveaway, however, is to encourage in people outside of Tradition the very disordered concupiscence which Fr. Le Roux desires not to encourage in those currently within Tradition.

I am very much reminded about the SSPX responses to those who complained 6-7 years ago about all the modern technology and website marketing the neo-SSPX was using: 

"Ah, but these websites and internet sites are not for OUR people, but for people outside Tradition."

Was not the practical effect -then as now- to infect BOTH those inside and outside Tradition?

Will those SSPXers selling tickets to those outside Tradition really maintain a contempt for the worldliness such exotic automobiles represent (or will they secretly hope they are the lucky winners)?

That will fit a natural, Catholic-sized family where the couple doesn't practice birth control.

...NOT!

A luxury car? Seriously? Why not have 2 more reasonable cars in the raffle instead?

Is a luxury sports car really what Traditional Catholics want? If I won that, the first thing I'd do is sell it so I could buy a practical car for my family. Even if I was buying a car for commuting, I'd pick a truck or something I could haul furniture and other stuff (by the side of the road, free stuff, etc.) In other words, Catholics should be seeking things practical, not luxury or cars that are only good for thrills or breaking the law (speed limit).

He is SO in tune with the Conciliar way of thinking. "Meet them on their level". Don't talk up to them, inspire them with old and ancient things, you should sink down to their level and then try to "bring them up" to where you are.

DOESN'T WORK.

Or else I somehow missed the "New Springtime" that was supposed to have started in 1970...
