I agree that sadly the sick perverts are everywhere in the Church. Although they have not always been there...they would come and go depending on how the Church responded to them. The more brutal the response, the safer and better the priesthood.



I have no idea how the SSPX can downplay the horror of this crime...to say "it's just part of the deal people" in a way. It's not. IT SHOULD NOT BE. … More

I have no idea how the SSPX can downplay the horror of this crime...to say "it's just part of the deal people" in a way. It's not. IT SHOULD NOT BE. Light and goodness should not attract such horrific evil it should repel it. Yes, the enemy will attack the priests/shepherds but they also have the graces of their ordination, the graces of daily receiving Holy Communion, the prayers of the faithful etc.



Enough of the excuses and hiding behind lawyers/counselors. "We were told we had no duty to report it". Really? According to who? The law of a land that supports numerous evils? Each and every one of us has a duty to protect the innocent and report such abuses...EVERYONE. And the other excuse i.e. we need an accuser to contact an abuser to 'let him out of his obligation to secrecy' junk...how diabolical! Have the accuser contact a mediator to pass along this permission and NOT someone from the SSPX. The final excuse was the last report of "reporting it the authorities"...were those authorities members of the SSPX? Probably, if those police were in St. Mary's Kansas. You need to contact authorities who have NO connection to the Society so that bias is avoided.



To top it off, the sermon by an SSPX priest today, during "Good Shepherd Sunday" no less, utterly downplayed the scandals, implied the laity had family members who were also child rapists and predators, that there have always been evil men like Judas in the priesthood even during the time of Our Lord (can you imagine any of the Apostles being child rapists?), that there were 1100 plus clergy in the society so the numbers weren't too bad, and virtually not a WORD of compassion, compunction, or righteous anger for the horrors committed against the innocent. When in the blazes will these priests learn from the disaster of the Novus Ordo Church with this? Does it occur to them that without US/the laity they are DONE. Oh, yes, the priest even told us we should be GRATEFUL...b/c we have the eucharist and confession. So in other words, shut up...let us rape your kids, destroy your families...you should be grateful you are getting the sacraments at all.



A heads up to ALL priests. The Japanese did not have clergy for many years. They baptized themselves, married themselves, probably did many spiritual communions with the Masses going on around the world, and prayed many acts of contrition. They survived as Catholics. And I would drop kick EVERY priest on the planet if they turned out to be a sex pervert and be like those Japanese rather than expose myself and children to being raped in body and soul. Without the laity, priests are without house, food, everything...not to mention purpose. They are there to serve and protect the SHEEP...not THEMSELVES or the WOLVES. If holy, they will be richly rewarded by Our Lord...if not, they will suffer brutally forever. GOOD SHEPHERDS know this and I have seen them rage and break down over the horrors done to their sheep by their fellow priests. And they do whatever they can to reform their orders/diocese...to stop the evil. These Good Shepherds DO exist but are rare...and obviously not currently in positions of authority in the SSPX.



The SSPX is being given an opportunity here to LEAD by example. To brutally clean house and establish intense and brutal measures against this plague of sexual perversion and predation. Read what St. Peter Damien and Pope St. Pius V recommended. If you rape a child? Defrocking, trial, last rites and death. Anyone who covers for them? The same. Have every seminarian WATCH the public execution, teaching them that THIS is what awaits them if they attempt to harm an innocent. If a repeat offender, burning at the stake. ENOUGH of this evil. This evil is not normal, it's not to be "expected", it is from the very depths of hell itself and speaks of a cancer in whatever priestly society it occupies. This is the murdering of a child's SOUL, the ripping, breaking and destruction of innocence by who they see as GOD HIMSELF. THIS is the worst crime on the planet. Period. So stop assuming it's normal, that it's "gonna happen" b/c it sure doesn't happen in my family...and they are pretty messed up as it is. We don't pretend to be priests/holy/religious...do you get that is what makes it so horrifying?



Wake up SSPX. Ask Our Lord and His Mother to use this to BURN OUT this cancer. See it as a last opportunity or Our Lord will SPIT you out of His mouth...and the poor Archbishop will be crushed. Have courage, trust that you should never fear the consequences of doing the RIGHT thing, and blast out the evil from among you. Better that here than before the Just Judge. Catholics would FLOCK to you...knowing you take the protection of us sheep seriously, that you are not hirelings who only think of protecting themselves, but will lay down your life for us. We would respect, honor, love and follow you...and you would be glorified in heaven without end. The grace is there for this to happen...are you willing to go after it? Or will you just hide behind your excuses, lawyers, and justifications? We have only ONE life to live. Make it count...it will be WORTH it.



God bless~
