    I don’t concern myself with the opinions,preferences or desires of any pope . Including this one. Yes he is the pope. All I care about is is what he teaches in his official capacity and the I do my level best to understand what is being said.

    I love how Ezequiel said that right from the start he saw through the errors of the SSPX by simple common sense but still studied them with an open mind. It is very humbling as I was more naive and gullible and less well formed in my faith when dealing with these issues. However, it is by listening to others who are more knowledgeable than myself and their testimonies that helped lead me down the right path - in union with Rome.

  • @kansasguthries7259
    @kansasguthries7259 Před 8 dny

    You're doing something very similar to what Protestants do when they meet ex-Catholics that left the Church because of negative experiences they had. These disgruntled apostates then become the sole insight into Catholicism and the Protestants can say "See, the Catholic Church is false because of what these ex-Catholics experienced." Then they don't even consider talking to people who are happy and truly practicing their Faith. For example, your interview with Christine of St. Mary's would lead people to believe that all the families who attend the SSPX chapel are like hers and every child in St. Mary's has had the same sad experiences as her. Why not interview some of the people she mentioned like for example the sweet woman who out of charity refer her the the job she got at Angelus Press.

  • @st.thomasreporter9350

    This was wonderful! I think the biggest misunderstanding that many Catholics have of the secular world and those outside the Church is that they love themselves too much, and need to know God's hatred of sin more. This is false. The secular world and many people in it very clearly hate themselves, and need to know God's love. Many non-christians see God as a cruel taskmaster or hateful judge, they don't see him as a forgiving and loving Father. The primary sin of our culture is not presumption; it is despair. Despair that love will never be found except in other people and in the world.

    The comment where studies show that infertility has just as bad an effect on a woman as cancer - wow, that has been my experience! My wife and I had been fighting infertility for years. After ten years of marriage, we finally have a third on the way, without resorting to sinful methods. To see my wife struggle with this - it's almost like she struggles to know the meaning of her life!

  • @erric288
    @erric288 Před 16 dny

    I'm curious as to where historically purity culture came from. Where did it originate? Was it a protestant phenomenon that crossed over into traditionalist catholic culture or was it contained within catholic culture long before and only really blossomed in protestant denominations for theological reasons? Also, how have movements in the secular world responded to this warped understanding of sex and how has that shaped modern culture (sexual liberation, contraception, abortion, and feminism)? What would society look like if a proper understanding of sex, marriage, and gender was widely known and normative? Thanks as always for the engaging discussion!

  • @DarthInkling
    @DarthInkling Před 16 dny

    Excellent conversation, the critical points I took away from this conversation was the corollary of Communio within the Eucharist as like unto our own marriages and the conjugal union. Is it any wonder then that there is so much Marital strife and dysfunction within the Trad community? Since the center point of unity the Holy Eucharist is being celebrated illicitly. There is a supernatural reality which our eyes cannot see-namely the breaking of that bond of unity. That which should be unifying is now a point of division, and when you look at these marriages within the Rad Trad community it is reflective of that.

    I converted to Catholicism from an extreme, fundementalist, protestant group. Coming into contact with radical traditionalist groups in Catholic circles reopened many of those wounds. I'm thankful for MissHappyCatholic and others who address these harms, as I was ready to leave Catholisism as well. Resources like Trad Recovery have been so helpful to me.

    I love doing the liturgy of the hours, especially by myself. I currently use Christian prayer and shorter Christian prayer only if I can't get to the whole prayers of the day. The four volume set looks like it takes a lot of time and work most of the day, so I don't have that much time to pray. Being, I don't really pray the Office of Readings that much. I do pray most of the Saints and Devotions. There's nothing more rewarding and enlightening and having your time with the Lord.

    I love the Traditional Catholic Faith as it teaches the True gospel of Jesus Christ. and encourages us to live our life as such. I have met good traditional Catholic Faith ful Catholics. But unfortunately we have to deal with pharisaical attitudes is very difficult to deal with God forgive me and God For give them cause I have had horrible incidents that I never wanted to have . Happen . And yes I have to agree that slander is a sin . But my heart is with Jesus. Yes I am traditional and love it. It is my cross to carry right now because I have been through to help those that are suffering just like me. We need to forgive each other. And do away with the Pharasical acal attitude. Unfortunately those that have slandered. Severely perhaps even unjustly all the time. Are the ones that may not have had to be in my shoes at all thank God for what have you have said cause maybe I can help those that are suffering in the traditional Catholic Faith to PERSEVERE in their Catholic Faith and love and destroy that PHARITISTCAL ATTITUDE. we are supposed hate the sin but not the sinner as Christ came to call if ti repent of our sins. Thankyou for this I needed to hear this.

  • @gandalfthewhite4600
    @gandalfthewhite4600 Před měsícem

    Solid video, however there are a couple of points that should be addressed. Around the 9 min mark, you say that some protestant denominations held on to the liturgical books as a basis for the development of their church music, but then go on to say that the Anglicans and Lutherans retained only some. im gonna go ahead and guess that the denominations you're referring to are low church in nature, seeing as how you've excluded what can arguably be considered the only two high church protestant traditions in the world. I'd like to know the historical for the basis of this claim, because after visiting many low church protestant churches, the music is always a reflection of the same low church musical trends they've been following since the 19th and 20th centuries. I've noticed music in the high church traditions to be very similar to ours in the RCC. Lastly, towards the end of the video you credit Irish evangelization (which I imagine happening sometime during the later half of the 19th century given immigration numbers) with high masses being conducted in a more subdued manner. Again, I'd like to know the historical basis for this because your statement doesn't really jive with what we know about how masses were celebrated in the U.S. prior to the ideas of Vat II.

Why aren’t these types of things being cracked down on? Is it just not known about? (I’m not blaming the pope at all. Just wondering why this isn’t more known.) I wonder what percentage of in-communion TLM communities are similar to this one in Brazil and which are not radical. That would be an interesting study.

    As a mental health Catholic therapist who has left a somewhat similar situation... this individual needs healing from the Holy Ghost by getting "put back together" from within because she seems shattered. She needs to reclaim the reality of being (beloved in the here and how)...and she needs to own it as the most fundamental truth about herself. I would recommend EMDR or accelerated resolution therapy (ART) to take out the spiritual trauma from the body and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to "put the pieces in herself back together". Her wounds are still there and I wouldn't be shocked if there is a depression and anxiety spirit at war with her. The good news is that God doesn't give her more than she can handle.
