FBI’s Targeting Of Traditional Catholics Must Be Music To The Vatican’s Ears

Last week’s Report Kyle Seraphin, whistleblower, revealed that an FBI analyst in the Richmond Field Office released intelligence product profiling. “the increasingly observed interest of racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (RMVE) in radical-traditionalist Catholic ideology” It was quite sobering, but not shocking.

When late last year The New York Times’ Ruth Graham took an especial Interest I’m proud of the flourishing Traditional Latin Mass, and the growing numbers of faithful Catholics who attend these services, despite the opposition from the Pope. Warned Something was up. Graham’s slippery references to “a rising right-wing strain within American Christianity” And the so-called “brand of new hard-right rhetoric” attracting Catholics to the Latin Mass didn’t sit well.

The FBI’s Persecution It is already sickening to see Catholic fathers being punished for pro-life advocacy. Monitoring a small group of Catholics based upon their faith and religion is a shocking new low. The FBI memo has been widely condemned, with Jason Miyares (Virginia Attorney General) and now 19 other state attorney generals condemning it.

Traditional Latin Mass Catholics — who 60 years ago were known simply as “Catholics” — have been a persistent thorn in Pope Francis’ side. He has tried a couple of tactics to suppress them, notably by undoing Pope Benedict’s good work and placing severe There are restrictions celebrating the Latin Mass. Francis allowed this. There are exceptions The rulesThis includes institutes such as the Priestly Fraternity St. Peter, whose existence is intrinsically connected to the ancient liturgy.

Francis Deviating From Core Teachings

Francis’ pontificate has been characterized by more doctrinal volatility than probably any other pope in the Catholic Church’s history. He has deviated from Catholic core teaching and promoted Cardinal Robert McElroy, Cardinal Blaise Cupich and other prelates who don’t seem to believe in the one true God Jesus Christ. “the same yesterday today and tomorrow.” Instead, the Word Incarnate becomes a kind of granola mystic that reinvents
