Still no substantive response.  False dilemma.  Priest is not some average run of the mill individual either.  He's a man who's dedicated and consecrated to God, and an Alter Christus.  He acts in persona Christi, so in a way he IS God, because he carries around the character of Our Lord.

The only response or explanation that you will accept is one that is in agreement with you. I can't do that. I do not see any priest as God, just as I do not see any Pope as God. I'd like to think that I'm more realistic than you.

We should focus on this portion of Pius X's comments:

“If, on the contrary, he forgets the holiness of the sacred character which he bears indelibly impressed and engraved on his soul, and if he fails to show in his outward conduct a gravity superior to that of certain men of the world, then he causes his ministry and religion itself to be despised. For when gravity is wanting in its leaders, the people lose respect and veneration for them.”  

The Novus Ordo priests behave like the ones in the OP.  How many people are drawn to the Catholic Faith because of this type of behavior? It might draw people to the Novus Ordo faith, but not the Catholic Faith. Unless these SSPX priests want to be like the NO priests, they had better make better choices.

How can religion be despised because a few priests go to Sea World? 



Man… talk about “bait & switch”!

Trento did a slick job of derailing the topic.

Where’s the discussion on the implications of Bp. Tissier offering authentic, Holy Sacraments in a desacralized Novus ordo church?

:popcorn:

I thought someone else started it by posting the rollercoaster pictures. :confused:

As for the topic of +Tissier offering sacraments in a NO building, wasn't it answered with examples from the pre-Resistance times?
