I am happy to see that the good folks over at The Remnant have taken my call for intra-traditionalist tolerance seriously and announced the
2016 Catholic Identity Conference. The panel of experts includes priests from both the FSSPX and the FSSP. Don't worry, though: Chris Ferrara will be there to drown out all other conversation that might get nasty.

Who would actually pay to go this type of event? Ain't nobody got time for that.
ReplyDeleteP.S: Shots of cheap whiskey for any time Pope Francis is mentioned.

DeleteI expect the audience demographic will skew older.
That whiskey had better be cheap.
DeleteAthelstane, there are a few students, and more at the liturgies.
DeleteBeing a graduate of FUS, near where the conference is held and some faculty of which help promote and organize it. Skojec is also an alumnus. I went one year. I have very negative feelings about the FSSP, so I skipped the next two years. They did 1962 Ember Friday in September but with pre–readings and Benedicamus at the end at a Mass sung by Canon Moreau of the ICRSS with an SSPX deacon in a diocesan church. The FSSP priest scheduled to deacon had a delayed flight. Course, if the canon had his way, the planetae plicatae might have come out. I was bummed I miss the Mass; I like the ICRSS. Also, it is in Steubenville and Wierton to give the proverbial middle finger to the school, I have concluded.
ReplyDeleteMay I ask, from an honestly ignorant perspective (at least, ignorant about intra-trad politicking and turf wars) why you have "very negative feelings about the FSSP?" I have supported them moderately in the past though I've only been to one of their parishes once, as a visitor. If there's a reason I shouldn't send them money, I'd like to know about it.
DeleteIt’s complicated. I’ve had friends who were treated poorly by them. know people who were, or have seen signs of it, like on seminary visits. I know things, but it’s only hearsay at this point. They seem the most ghettoized; the ICRSS seems a bit aloof, but their mission is not simply providing the TLM as it is for the FSSP. Two seminaries seems to have deepened wounds within the FSSP.
DeleteI believe they did this kind of thing for a few years now, since around 2013, if I remembered correctly.
ReplyDeleteMy mistake, it was 2012, though it wasn't til last year that they had priests from both the FSSP and SSPX.
DeleteI laughed.
ReplyDeleteMade me snort LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm like 1st millenium or die! or archeologism or die! :P
Actually It was Bishop Sanborn who called for it followed by Fr. Rodriguez many years Later.
ReplyDeleteHa!!
ReplyDeleteNow THAT is funny. (Expect threats of a law suit)
O, ABS wanted to note that he has been assisting at the Melkite D.L. and has discovered, much to his surprise, that he prefers if to the Latin Rite Mass he was born into in 1948.

ReplyDeleteThe Remnant used to have an editorial policy of "no enemies on the right" but it never took the time to define "right."
ABS knows an FSSP priest who openly kids his clerical friends in the ICKSP about their vestment obsessions but it seems such light-hearted conviviality is rapidly disappearing; to bad for it is a very healthy habit in men.
