    The Reason for Treason
    January 31, 2018

    Fr. Niklaus Pfluger, SSPX

    (1st Asst. to the Superior General)

     
    Christian LaSalle of the French news outlet Medias-Presse recently published an article which contains a wonderful explanation of why some SSPX priests and faithful, formerly strong and vigorous in their defense of Tradition, suddenly throw in the towel, and run to modernist Rome.
    The article also explains why the acceptance of a purely practical accord is out of the question.
    Surprisingly, the explanations are those of Fr. Niklaus Pfluger, arch-accordist, from a time before he was 1st Assistant to Bishop Fellay.
    Here is a sample from the old Fr. Pfluger:
    But more than the attacks from the outside, it is our own inner weakness that we need to fear. Because a prolonged fight is tiring. It is discouraging for a small group to constantly have to fight against the all-powerful current of the masses and of public opinion. For Monsignor Lefebvre, it seemed logical that the church crisis would last for a long time and that we had to prepare ourselves for a long battle against modernist doctrines. […] Today […] we are tired, we are tired of always being different and we yearn for unity, peace and tranquillity. It is for this reason that on a regular basis, not only some priests, but also the faithful, who had stood firm for a long time in turmoil, suddenly become weak and give up the fight for tradition – whatever may be the reasons they give. This religious fatalism leads to a gradual reduction of expectations… and a premature agreement, i. e. a practical-only union with Rome, without tackling the causes which are at the origin of the crisis of faith, would not only be dangerous but also fake. To how many groups and communities did the official hierarchy not make promises? And all of them became disillusioned, and finally accepted the new Mass, accepted the Second Vatican Council as a whole, and even justified “the spirit of Assisi”.
    Obviously, Fr. Pfluger (like so many of his colleagues) has fallen victim to his own diagnosis.
    Samuel has translated the whole article over at Tradidi.
    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi

  • Treason indeed, we may not all agree, but it seems the world is waking up to find we are today steeped in a war of good vs. evil.
     
    This goings on with the SSPX is a part of it.  A fight for the One World Government = One World Religion.  Not only SSPX I see good people going back to Vatican II often, but I also see people coming out of it.  

    Take a second look at that so-called train carrying those GOP to their place of retreat after President speech.  Of all things, a "garbage" truck on the track meant to KILL.  Except for a drone, they say warned the train to slow down.  The enemy is in this to kill those who fight this One World Trash.

    The Vatican is behind this, not because they are Catholic, but because they are NOT.  Might it be that within the SSPX also dwells the enemy, wolves in sheep's clothing? 
      
    Trump is not going to save us, no matter only God can end this horror in the world.  Government is worshipping the devil, to religious falling away to take the wide road.  We are all going to be tested. 
     
    What can we do except to do what She said, pray the rosary, daily!
    All 15 decades each day.  
    Please pray for my soul.

    I think you're on to something now.  Yes, devotion to the Immaculate Heart and the Rosary.  Only She can save us.  I don't look at sspx as necessarily intentionally evil.  It's just over- a large organization with apparently plenty of real estate and financial resources, but at the same time, increasingly irrelevant and superannuated, like a sports star who's past his prime and increasingly unproductive on the field.
