None of these people are Society faithful nor do they work in any of the buildings that belong to the Society. They are hired to take care of accounting only. The SSPX would be opening itself up for legal difficulties should they try to dictate to outsiders what they should or should not wear when they are not on any SSPX properties. You will keep trying to stir the pot.
Hello Pilar-
Thank you for this clarification.
At least for my own part, my motivation in including this episode within the CCCC thread is not to stir the pot, but (as with the entire thread) an attempt to make the SSPX clergy and faithful conscious of the compromises, contradictions, and changes in the SSPX which have taken place in pursuit of an accord with modernist Rome, primarily for the good of the SSPX, in the hopes of sparking a correction of these deviations.
Failing that, the secondary motivation is at least to place the facts of these changes before the faithful, in order to give them the necessary information to orient themselves.
For these reasons, I have no compunction regarding correcting or modifying anything included in the CCCC thread, and when the final product is complete, I will make note of your comment.
I will say that the ordinary reader would certainly have been justified in presuming that the women pictured within an article titled “Another Look Inside Operations of the Regina Coeli House - Assistant Priest’s and Staff” were indeed working on site at Regina Coeli house,” and I would not fault them for having made such a natural conclusion.
It would be helpful if you could pm me something from the District saying otherwise.
Also, it could be argued that the District’s willingness to publish such a picture, oblivious of the scandal which was bound to ensue in light of the absence of the necessary clarification, reflects something of a new spirit in itself, consistent with the general reorientation of the Society.
In any case, I appreciate and thank you for your intervention, since facts are what is desired.
