Cardinal Kaspar castigated Cardinal Mueller for his clarity of doctrine which leads to division.
Now Jesuit Father Reese castigates 1990’s reforms of seminaries that teaches the catechism to seminarians which then makes them authoritarian and rigid priests. He prefers the seminary style I attended in the 1970’s. No thank you Fr. Reese. We don’t need coloring book priests who promote a heterodox Catholicism that then abuses children and vulnerable adults with lies.
Progressives hated and hate the clarity of Pope John Paul’s Cathechism of the Catholic Church and the new clarity it brought to catechesis and to seminaries.
They prefer the Dutch Catechism and the liberal catechisms of the 1970’s, such as Anthony Wilhelm’s heterodox and widely used 1960’s Christ Among Us, and the coloring book era that produced only 12% of Catholics in the liberal northeast attending Mass and Catholics like Gov. Cuomo.
What Fr. Reese’s wants is a backwards pilgrimage to the corrupt 1970’s. Press title for NCR agenda:

"Father " Reese probably wants LGBT indoctrination too!
I'm guessing they will push for LOTS of "accompaniment" of the LGBT persons.
It isn't just LGBTQ but many other things that were proposed in the 1960's and 70's. Yes, when I was in the seminary in the late 70's our rector invited Dignity to speak to all our seminarians. I never knew that there was an organization in the Church that promoted this kind of thing and was shocked by what I heard.
The ones pushing for a return to a progressive agenda (spirit of Vatican II in rupture with the Church prior to Vatican II) are bishops and clergy who were young in the 60's and 70's and were of the me generation and the one's re-imagining the Church on a more pastoral model which is a code word for anything goes basically starting with women's ordination, divorce and remarriage, gay marriage and everything else but with a strong social justice curve.
It is this same crowd, aging prelates and priests my age and older to include Cardinal Cupich and Pope Francis not to mention Cardinal Kasper who have ascended to power and are trying to recoup all their losses under Popes John Paul II and Benedict. But they are a dying breed and they know it. Those who came up under Popes John Paul II and Benedict and their restoration of sanity to the Church will once again ascend to power and undo what these dinosaurs are doing today.
Fr McDonald, one can only hope that you are correct. However, don't forget that Francis has elevated/created many Cardinals that think like he does and will be voting for the next pope.
I now believe (like Mark Thomas) that there is no going back. I WILL get worse. Womyn priests are coming. And so on.....
They just wait until we die.
If there is too much protest and argument, the group becomes as irrelevant as the Old Catholics. Sure, a group like the SSPX can and will last awhile, but it will fade with the centuries, and by then these groups will be forgotten by the "robo-priests."
Dan,
But keep in mind, these old double-knit dinosaurs can't mint money. Faithful Catholics have stopped giving $ and more will continue to do so. After Summorum Pontificum I suspect if these loonies attempted to rescind it, that ruling would be ignored as the last gasp of bitter, faithless, old losers, as it should be ignored.
Fr. Reese is entitled to his opinion but, what crap. Compare/contrast Fr's utopia to the bursting seminaries of the SSPX and FSSP where orthodoxy is the order of the day. Strangely, that orthodoxy seems to translate into full pews and large families.
My snark for today: "Some of them come to seminary with an authoritarian mindset, but faculty at today's seminaries often do little to change that."
I suppose that is both possible and true but, I suspect that a goodly percent also comes with an LGBT mindset and the faculty does everything to encourage that.
This is for the spiritually dead who claim to be "catholic," to borrow a phrase from the political left, "you own this!"
“I worked at Planned Parenthood for eight years,” Abby Johnson said, describing her time working with Planned Parenthood. “I was an abortion clinic director there. I left in 2009 after a few things were happening. One, we were opening our country’s largest abortion facility in the Western hemisphere. We were going to be doing abortions through six months gestation, which was problematic for me, because I knew those babies could live on their own.”
Johnson continued, “Then I was instructed to double our abortion quota — the number of abortions we had to sell to women coming in — which was also shocking to me. Ultimately, I left after witnessing a live ultrasound-guided abortion procedure, where I saw a 13-week old fight and struggle for his life against the abortion instruments. And I knew then that there was life in the womb, and that there was humanity in the womb, and if those two things were true, then I was on the wrong side of this debate. So I ended up leaving and starting really trying to speak out about the things that I had seen inside the abortion clinic.”
In a January interview with Breitbart News, Johnson explained how she became pro-life after witnessing the aforementioned abortion.
Johnson described Planned Parenthood’s “constant sell and push of abortion.”
“I got involved with Planned Parenthood truly believing that our goal there was to reduce the number of abortions,” said Johnson. “That was sort of what everybody talked about during that time, ‘Let’s keep abortion safe, legal, and rare,’ right? Obama said it. Everybody said it. We started seeing a shift inside of the culture of the abortion industry many years ago, and that was that we weren’t trying to keep abortion rare. We were trying to keep abortion accessible. Accessible at any cost.
Father I’ll take my Baltimore Cathechism over JPII garbage any day of the week. JPII was an apostate who as an actor loved the stage. He’s just another VII Saint of Man not God.
Nothing good has ever come from Germany. Let’s see Luther, Marx, Engels, Niestsche, Hitler and on and one. A Godless nation if there ever was one.
Ireland and Poland for me as they both saved the church one in battle and the other in saving the writings of the church.
Father be careful you don’t want to end up like Father Treco. I just read the remnant article again and it sickens me that we have evil cowards as our shepherds. Zero money from me for any appeal until I start hearing and see more from our shepherd.
