@eugyppius1 I've been wondering how many of these accounts are subsidized. I'm glad people are having a good time, but some are a little too specific about certain brands...
@shagbark_hick Yes, its both universal salvation guys and guys who think you are not even a Christian unless you have been baptized Montenegro Orthodox, and are damned eternally unless you accept that the light on Mt Tabor was uncreated (or created, I forget) light
@johnamonaco I would suspect a "meh" paradigm to emerge from younger generations who are not very impressed with the council, but "accept" the council in the way we accept other things in history
@mcuban Mark, that is a generous idea, but having been in the system you should know that the democrats don't want things to get better, they want things to get worse because this will give them more power
@holysmoke if the SSPX were more self aware, they'd just have done the consecrations without any advance warning - ask forgiveness, not permission, as is done everywhere else in the Church
@AaronIrber there is a weird lack of charity running through so much of the EO stuff, like "there is faith, hope and love, and two out of three ain't bad"
@kalezelden Its no secret, at least for France. Soccer has always been an immigrants game there. 20 years ago, the only white guy on the team was only "accepted" because he was a convert to Islam

A French friend phones. I tell him Iโm surprised that he is not watching the France-Sรฉnรฉgal match. He makes a peculiarly Gallic noise that I can describe only as a vocal shrug. โThe legal immigrants are playing the illegal immigrants.โ
@JMJCircello@SteveSkojec If they were more integrated into the mainstream church, they'd know that the correct way to proceed is to do what they want to do and then ask forgiveness later, rather than ask permission (this is a joke by the way)
Sure, I've heard their arguments before, and frankly they need to exercise more flexibility of mind, to be able to resolve contradictions by drawing distinctions
They also need to be able to realize the limits of papal statements and other statements from authority, including Ecumenical Counsels
It would be helpful if everyone recognized that the SSPX is an emotion-guided movement, not primarily an intellectual one. It's concerns are based primarily on observed apostasy, feelings of betrayal, and sincerely wanting to do the right thing (sometimes to the point of scrupulosity) - the arguments about Vatican II are secondary and after the fact.
@asymmetricinfo They've made the college experience so luxurious, college meal plans including real restaurants, luxury dorms, that it gives kids "on their own" for the first time an unrealistic view of how the world actually is
@EricRSammons at the same time, trads need to be able to mentally accept things allowing for some ambiguity, because things are just not so cut and dried
@AlexBerenson@washingtonpost multiple young men I know had immediate, severe heart problems, some of which will likely drastically decrease their life spans
@MainstreamViews Right both are true. But they live in a world of "strong" and "weak," not true and untrue. So if acting like a thug will make them "strong" they will do that. If blaming racism will make them strong - or cover up their weakness in their own mind - they will do that.
@feelsdesperate@HistoryBoomer Its even worse because its international. The same stupid shit the Dems do here, their sister parties like the Labour party in the UK, and every party in Canada, do the exact same thing regardless of the actual circumstances of their countries
