The lower...Henry, I think you are on to something. The lowering of expectations for everyone in the Church, laity and religious, has also lowered our resistance and resiliance. After communion I frequently read St Augustin's prayer where he admits that he is a sinner with a frequent flier card. He tries and fails and is grateful for the forgiveness. St Bonaventure pairs nicely with it wherein he admits failure is assured without the help of the God he desires to please. Nowadays we try to excuse the behaviour of Fr Schmidt as the pressure of celebacy or being open minded to 'alternative' relationships. The woman might even have been referred to Planned Parenthood by a nun sympathetic to her plight. We have played with fire and it is burning us. rcghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09131930849106490711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-80341219549064577792017-02-28T09:38:59.525-05:002017-02-28T09:38:59.525-05:00Anonymous,

Obviou..."A connection???? I suspect so."<br /><br />Obviously. The correlation between sexual abuse and liturgical abuse--e.g., the prominence of sexual abusers among liturgical "innovators" and vice versa, and the prevalance of sexual abuse in the height of the liturgical silly season--is hard to miss. And I wonder whether liturgical abuse of the faithful has added up to more spiritual damage in the post-Vatican II era--affecting far more people--than has sexual abuse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-20699448715433637132017-02-27T15:20:50.781-05:002017-02-27T15:20:50.781-05:00Apparently the local bishop didn't transfer hi...Apparently the local bishop didn't transfer him to another parish to hush it up. This also came at a time when anti-Catholic sentiments were very public and anti-German sentiment was equally strong. So the temptation to box up Fr. Schmidt and send him to another place, far, far, away would have been overwhelming. <br /><br />When I see or hear of liturgical abuse I know something evil is lurking nearby, either as a motivator or as an opportunist. <br /><br />I don't see *real* traditionalists claiming that the olden days were perfect or sin-free. In fact the really hard core traditionalists can recite details of Church history and sinful clergy that will curl your hair. They will then tell you that, just as with all morality plays, that the deviation from the Church teachings was the departure point. Progressives will claim no such link with the loss of Catholics to false religions and widespread abuse of children as the result of selling out the liturgy to modern times. <br /><br />It is good to both pray for the soul of Fr. Schmidt and to tie the noose well. rcghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09131930849106490711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-36852465778562442322017-02-27T15:02:17.121-05:002017-02-27T15:02:17.121-05:00Dialogue - And they even oppose some forms of sexu...Dialogue - And they even oppose some forms of sexual activity between husbands and wives...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-19121574723897641212017-02-27T13:32:07.788-05:002017-02-27T13:32:07.788-05:00Anonymous,
