To Pablo
« on: March 02, 2013, 08:59:06 AM »
Pablo,

I thought about whether this should be stated in a PM, but decided that it is important this be written publicly.  

I think it is time that Fr. Pfeiffer is made aware of the scandalous manner you are behaving on this board (at least occasionally read by most if not virtually all people considering supporting the Resistance priests' efforts) and request that he correct you.  

The fact is that having someone who behaves the way you do in a very public forum being a leading organizational and communications element is already damaging and, because of the universally accessible nature of social media like this website, could be a serious danger to the movement we are all spending a great deal of time and money to support.  

I hope you will immediately cease your off the cuff comments and restrict yourself to only posts passing along important information that the Resistance priests want to  be disseminated.

Pablo,

You are not being accurate.  Fr. Pfeiffer just instructed us this week to contact you with and for information for the website.  Just a couple weeks ago, you went into a rage because we didn't sufficiently give YOU all the details about His Lordship's visit.    

No one here knows what you are talking about in regard to any children who needed to be baptized by FSSP priests.  You are the only one who has scandalized anyone and no one is telling you anything other than:

TONE IT DOWN!!!

Pablo, your comments aren't just off-base, they are crazy talk.  Sane, balanced people don't write the way you do or fly off the handle like you do.  No one is talking about any persecuted children, or any lost souls or any trad trolls trying to help Satan trip anyone up.

All I am saying is this:

1).  Pablo, you say really violent, aggressive, crazy things on a regular basis

2).  Pablo, these things reflect badly on Fr. Pfeiffer, the movement and all of us because of your close cooperation with Father.

3).  Pablo, souls are shying away from helping the Resistance because they cannot understand how Father could allow someone like you to handle things.

4).  Pablo, to avoid more scandal and pushing souls away, you need to CALM DOWN and stop the vitriol.  If you can post things without taking the crazy train, great.  But, so far, you haven't demonstrated that capacity.  So, until you can communicate without sounding insane, you really need to restrict yourself to informational posts only.

Amicus24,
I too was troubled about Pablo, and brought one of his over-the-top posts to Fr. Pfeiffer's attention when the latter was staying with us briefly about two or three months ago.  Father read it and just seemed to  blow it off, indicating that Pablo had some rough edges, perhaps, but was, nevertheless, a faithful servant of the resistance, etc.  I admire Pablo's tenacity and Cristeros-like spirit.  However, the apparent gratuitous craziness of some of this comments does leave one wondering from time to time.  I read little of what Pablo posts most of the time,  but have read enough of them to feel troubled.  Maybe we "resistance" gringos are too soft for him, not sufficiently tough, overly sensitive, etc.  I don't know.

Quote from: Zeitun
Amicus24....have you ever asked yourself why Father Pfeiffer remains friends with Pablo despite Pablo supposedly "scandalizing" everyone?  You know Father quite well.  Is he a man that cannot make decisions for himself?  Is he so helpless that he's forced to use Pablo's assistance?  Perhaps there are things Father knows that we don't? Why don't you call Father and ask him directly.  Then publish Father's response here.

Why has no "better" man stepped up to replace Pablo?  Someone more level headed, pious, and nice to trads?

Yes, where is he?

I mean no ill will Amicus because I know you to be a good man.  But perhaps there is another side to this story we mere humans can't see.


Dear Zeitun,

You make an excellent point here about Father choosing to cooperate with Pablo.  Admittedly, Father can make his own decisions.  But, having spoken to Father very generally about Pablo's role in this situation, it is clear that he has NO IDEA about Pablo's statements on here and elsewhere.  Moreover, Father has specifically urged us to not make any of the kinds of statements that Pablo makes on a regular basis.  I have no doubt that when these things are brought to his attention, the situation will be dealt with appropriately.

Also, again, I want to reiterate that Pablo's problem is not that he is not level-headed, impious or not nice.  I have no idea whether he is nice or not or pious or not.  The problem is that, for whatever reason, Pablo says crazy, scandalous things that discredit the entire Resistance because he is known to be a chief organizer and cooperator with Fr. Pfeiffer and runs the main websites.  That is the problem.  Pablo's behavior drives souls away from the Truth.  It doesn't have to be that way.  He could just tone down the craziness and there would be no problem.  

God Bless,

Grant

Wait a minute.  I, for one, was not bashing Pablo- just troubled by some of his online behavior.  BTW, I resist what is happening in the sspx, and have been doing so consistently since 2009, when the good bishop was treated by Menzingen as he was.  Just because I resist current sspx trends, and have no further use for +Fellay & Co. does not mean that our allegiances are automatically transferred to, or switched over to the camp of Fr. Pfeiffer & Co.  Sorry, for us it is just not working that way!
