Media Theoretician: Editorial journalism supports "radical anti-Clericalism"
Bonn (kath.net/idea) Prof. Norbert Bolz (Berlin) has leveled sharp criticisms of an ecclesiastical "superconformity to the modern". This is the case especially for the Protestant Church. "That is the accomodation, which is merciless and knows no boundaries -- which kills the Church", said the Protestant to a colloquium about the Christian media presene in Germany on the 1st of May in Bonn. The Catholic Institute for Social Science in Walberg was invited.
As an example of ecclesiastical accomodation Bolz described the straining after "political correctness". As the Professor continued, there is in the place of the impenetrability of living conditions in the globalized world, an "ever greater necessity for absoluteness." There is an opportunity for Christianity in that. A problem therefore, that one can only get the complexity of the Christian belief through the media with great difficulty. In television programs or in newspapers, "in which dependent clauses are almost never used", it is difficult for the Church to be done justice by the media.
Christianity with its good news is "principally uninteresting" for the media, since they are interested in bad news. For that reason Christianity is said to have "nothing new to say". Bolz also criticized even a "pronounced editorial jounralism" in Germany, which supports a "radical anti-Clericalism" and prescribe for the Church how it should proceed in the modern world.

More Accusations Against Modernist Collegeville
 |
| The Hollow Shell of Modernism |
Editor: Father Francisco Schulte OSB is a tall, fair complected man with a big voice and boyish face. Despite the credible accusations against him, he's been in Italy for a while, possibly working on a thesis at the Benedictine College of Sant Anselmo as of 2010, but he's found a stranger place to hide. In any event, Sant Anselmo is a great place if you want to learn how to give back rubs and modernism.
We've been informed at one time that Fr. Francisco is a very holy and unjustly accused priest. Actually, according to one eyewitness, he organized a "Mass" at the High School of St. John's Preparatory where he was employed as the Campus Minister with the Marxist religion instructor, to portray God as a woman and engaged with her in a dialogue homily, where she played the voice of God, but many people aren't worried by such clear betrayals of trust and hypocrisy.
This recent report is consonant with what we've been saying about the common causality between liberalism, or heresy, and the homosexual abuse scandal which allows the various people in charge to justify the institution of programs which continue to attack the integrity of Catholic teaching and even corrupt the young, like the Talking About Touching program, which exposes children to degradation at their early and formative stages. You thought your children were safe in Catholic Schools, think again.
This whole "sex-abuse crisis" has been part of a systematic attack from forces outside and within the Church to continue the degradation of innocence and the darkening of intellects and the damnation of souls to Hell as a consequence.
Forces without, to include the media bosses and political interests like the American Civil Liberties Union, will continue to pursue legal avenues, while within, the Bishops will give the appearance of dealing with the situation by stonewalling against legitimate reform, covering for their homosexual culprits while continuing to foster the atmosphere which promotes the abuse in the first place, an atmosphere of modernism, which St. Pius X once called, "the synthesis of all heresies".
Father Francisco is a credibly accused as a sexual predator and since the time he's been on restriction, he's been employed in positions of trust by the Abbey of San Anselmo in Rome since around 2006 and otherwise employed as a marriage counselor and a tour guide of all things. Most recently, he has even found sanctuary at the promising "conservative" Monastery of San Benedetto, which is not, as we're elated to discover this afternoon, is not to be confused by a different Monastery about two hours away, that has the same name, St. Benedict of Norcia.
Presently, a man from Puerto Rico has accused Father Francisco of abusing him in the early seventies.
Just to remind you, Father Francisco has been credibly accused since the late nineties and on restriction. Despite this, as we have mentioned before, the Abbot of St. John's Abbey at Collegeville continues to sandbag, stonewall and deny there is a voracious cancer that is eating at the heart of the place.
Check out the utterly wreckovated church this Monastery has, and pay close attention to the tone and cadence of the presenter's voice and the things he decides to dwell upon. No real Catholic priest or religious I've ever met sounds like that or says those kinds of flaccid, and heretical sounding things.
Editor: Correction as of, 5/3/11, 1820 Hours GMT: The Monastery referred to is not the newly restored Monastery at Subiaco, but another one by the same name some two hours distance from there. This is not to be confused with the other monastery with the same name, San Benedetto of Norcia, which as I pointed out above is completely and utterly different from Subiaco where Father Francisco Schulte OSB is now said to be temporarily residing. We apologize for the confusion.

Society of St. Pius X Threatens Legal Action Against Friendly Catholic Forum
Editor: This is definitely an overreaction and a friendly fire incident. This raises some serious questions about the integrity and good will of the SSPX legal representation, and even the leadership of the Society itself. Actually, Ignis Ardens administration was sympathetic to Bishop Fellay. I don't think they will be any more. Rather than contest the claims that were made and discredit them, the Society seems to be vindicating them with respect to the questionable associations of their new Attorney. We actually stopped reading the thread after we saw that people were attacking Mr. Krah's Catholic authenticity based on his videos and even speculated on whether or not he prayed the Rosary, however questionable his fan appreciation for the actress and pop star "Madonna" might be.
This threat of legal action puts the whole thing in a different light, however.
Seriously, what kind of a man, to say nothing of a Catholic, would put "Madonna" as one of his favorite performance acts?
Link to Ignis Ardens Site...
Edit as of 9:15 GMT, 2 May: After having talked to the owner of Ignis Ardens, we understand that she is quite happy with things as they are and has no animus at all toward Father Morgan or the SSPX. As she explained it, she was never comfortable with the Krahgate report anyway and is happy to be rid of it.
She's not too worried about any legal action either.

IGNIS ARDENS
The Ignis Ardens website states that 'it is a Taditionalist Catholic forum with a pro-SSPX bias... but that 'this forum's support for SSPX is not to be taken as evidence of the SSPX's support for this forum.'
The latter part of this statement is certainly true with regard to Ignis Ardens' involvement to date in a campaign which undermines the authority of the Society's General House.
I refer to the section entitled 'Krahgate,' which, under the cover of anonymity, raises serious allegations against Menzingen's lawyer, Maximilian Krah, and, by extension, against the Superior General himself.
Whilst this file, which apparently originated elsewhere, was recently removed at the initiative of the Ignis Ardens moderator, the damage caused will be much more difficult to repair given the public nature of the internet and the propensity for calumny and detraction to spread.
In this regard Bishop Fellay does not exclude having recourse to judicial process, and this should serve a warning to those who think they can commit public slander via the internet with impunity.
Father Paul Morgan.

Pope John Paul II " The mystery of salvation is continued and accomplished in the Church, and from
this single source it reaches the whole world. There is no salvation outside the Church. From her
alone there flows the life giving force destined to renew the whole of humanity, directing every human
being to become a part of the Mystical Body of Christ."

Disobedient Australian Bishop Retires Early
Editor: Cardinal Schoenborn is guilty of the same thing, claiming to engage in a debate while undermining the Church's teachings thereby.
The sacking of Toowoomba Bishop William Morris 02 May 2011 , 11:38 AM by Halina Baczkowski Tonight, Australian time, Pope Benedict is expected to basically sack Toowoomba Catholic Bishop William Morris. Bishop Bill, as he is known, has sent a letter to priests in his diocese. A separate letter was read out at congregations yesterday.
Almost two years to the day that Father Peter Kennedy was sacked as a Catholic priest, Bishop Morris says in his letters that he has been denied natural justice, without evidence or due process.

SSPX Organizes Pro-Life Procession in Freiburg
From the District Website: The yearly demonstration for unborn life has taken place in Freiburg!
With the approval of the police, the Society of St. Pius X organized an event for the prayer demonstration in front of the Abortion Clinic 'Pro Familia' in Freiburg on Wednesday on 27. April. There were approximately 200 faithful praying the stations of the cross and drawing finally through to the city center. The concluding speech was given by the Pro-life Movement, President Walter Ramm.
There were at times eighty policemen present to protect the pilgrims.
And from kreuz.net, the following:
If the defense of the violence of abortion is obviated, then the National Socialism of modern Germany can be swallowed without a problem.
(kreuz.net, Freiburg)The day before yesterday about two hundred brave defenders of human rights demonstrated against the violence of abortion.
It involved a democratic demonstration of the healthy forces among the people.
It was organized by one of the most famous Catholic groups in Germany -- the internationally active Society of St. Pius X.
The abortionists know only one argument: violence
The human rights advocates brought about two dozen of the leftist defenders of the violence of abortion to burning white hot. They had flocked together to fight against democracy and human rights.
The enemies of children violated the personal rights of the democratic demonstrators with a fanatical howl.
They were even encouraged in this to assault the human rights demonstrators with condoms.
The enemies of children found powerful allies in the media bosses.
So, the 'Baische Zeitung' played down the left fascist street violence.
The paper of the regime also underrated the number of the demonstrators down to "120“.
Stupidly they weren't in agreement with the anti-life fascist online news site 'fudder.de'.
Because this one reported -- even still evasively-- twice as many human rights protesters than were there.
'Badische Zeitung' downplayed the fascist racism
The courageous life defenders prayed in front of an abortion "clinic" of the German child murder firm, 'Pro Familia'.
This company was founded after the Second World War by a National Socialist, Racist.
The 'Badische Zeitung' unscrupulously downplayed the company's function by saying that they provide a place where, "in 'pro familia' pregnant women are advised".
The peaceful human rights demonstrators carried posters in order to call people's attention to this manipulation.
There we were to learn, for example: "What does an abortion cost? Not much -- a human life".
Or: "A right to choose to kill?"
A large police force had to protect the human rights defenders from the leftist rowdies.
These disturbed the prayers and songs of the human rights activists with their demonic choruses.
The police officials escorted the human rights activists in their prayer procession with two rows.
Two violent child haters were arrested by the police.

Lutherans: Not Interested in Distancing from Old Rhetoric
As is commonly known, Luther persistently reviled the Pope as a heretic. Should you not take the wooden head of Wittenberg simply at his word?
(kreuz.net, Regensburg) The Protestants should finally distance themselves from the barren polemic of their founder Martin Luther († 1546).
Bishop Gerhard Ludwig Mueller of Regensburg advocated this on Tuesday for the news service 'dapd'.
"It is time that on the official Protestant side that they officially distance themselves from the teaching that the Pope is anti-Christ."
Such expressions can do nothing but be reduced to an obsolete polemic -- explained Msgr Mueller.
Beating around the Bush
Actually, yesterday the members of the Protestant Communion refused the long overdue distancing.
The Bavarian "Bishop" Susanne Breit-Kessler said that the Bishops public proposal cam "as a complete surprise".
This was in the anti-Church 'Suddeutschen Zeitung'.
"No one today would describe Benedict XVI as anti-Christ. That's not something any person would say" -- she said speaking of the bush.
The president of the Evangelical National Synod in Bavaria, Dorothea Deneke-Stoll, took a similar tone.
As if she had spoke with the "Bishopress", Mrs Deneke-Stoll gave the same content for the 'Suddeutschen Zeitung':
"This Luther citation isn't something I've heard from any active protestant in this form. I can only imagine that anyone would dare to use it."
Bishop Mueller received a knife in the back from the supposedly Catholic Vice President of the Bavarian National Assembly, Comrade Franz Maget.
The Comrade reached up and took the abuse-hoax out of thin air, saying:
"Clearly, [Msgr] Mueller is worried that the abuse discussion of 2010 has been far more problematic than it has been for the Evangelical."
Sure enough: of course, the Comrade was silent about the real men in the charge of this abuse discussion.

Madame Nhu, First Lady of Vietnam, RIP
Editor: She was the brave and sharp witted First Lady of Vietnam. She was a devoted Catholic who deserves our prayers. We'll try to write a better obituary here for her than what she'll get from the Marxist New York Times. So it almost goes without saying that she has been unjustly maligned by the media for more than fifty years. She is almost universally referred to by enlightened and culturally sensitive leftists as "Dragon Lady", although she was herself a woman of high birth, being of the Imperial Family of Vietnam, and great intelligence. Her life has been bitter and tragic as she has lived in exile for most of it, owing to her country being stolen by Bolshevik thieves and the incompetent bungling of the Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson Administrations. Her brother-in-law was the most Catholic, courageous and interesting President of the Republic of Vietnam, Ngô Đình Diệm. Like many other Catholic leaders, he was assassinated, leaving the Communists reportedly shocked that the Americans could be so stupid.
She has little love or sympathy for the United States, which is understandable considering the way she was treated by our local Marxists in the press corp. As an interesting aside, it was her comments about Buddhist monks incinerating themselves, and her witty remark that indicted the Monks of hypocrisy, which they used to portray her ever after as "The Dragon Lady". Indeed, the way her sharp remarks were portrayed in the American press, she sounded vain, stupid and quite frankly, redolent of certain stereotypes held by the protestant mind-set in the United States about Asians. Her treatment by these journalistic Quislings reminds us of another brilliant Catholic Lady who suffered a like treatment from similar journalistic types almost two centuries earlier in 1789.

A nice profile of her by Mad Monarchist.

"The Dragon Lady" as she came to be called, was also a passionate anti-communist and was determined that women should play a leading role in defending their country from Communist infiltration. She formed a corps of women warriors and there is a famous photograph of her at their training ground, firing a .38 pistol for the first time. That event sums up a great deal of her character. Having never used a firearm before she was startled by the noise of the first shot. Laughing it off, she vowed that she would not flinch again and fired the remaining five rounds as though she were an expert. She also fostered a renewal of commemorations for the Trung Sisters, the heroic co-Queens of early Viet Nam who fought against Chinese occupation.

Cistercian Abbot Says the Right Things, Does the Wrong Ones
Two sided witness of a Cistercian
On the one side, he says things that are true and important. But why has he made a homo-lobbyist as Theology Professor in the College run by the Monastery?
(kreuz.net) Abbot Gregor Graf Henckel von Donnersmarck (68) ears that Europe is quickly on the way to abolishing itself.
In the twentieth century there won't be any Europeans "in our sense" left.
The Abbot was born in Breslau. From February he has led the Cistercian Monastery Heiligenkreuz in Vienna.
He was interviewed by the opposition Berlin weekly 'Junge Freiheit'.
Theory and Praxis
Abbot Henkkel von Donnersmarck spoke spontaneously without notes before for the newspaper:
"The Europeans, as we know them, have almost destroyed themselves by suicide and namely from destabilizing marriage and the family as well as contraction, murder of unborn persons and the offering of equal status for sterile and non-reproductive relationships".
And: "Discrimination doesn't just mean that the same is made to be unequal, rather
by the same token, that one unequal is portrayed as equal" -- the clergyman said.
It is for him a fact that marriage is seriously discriminated against, when one takes its partnerships, which would not correspond to their characters, to make them similar or equal.
With this expression the Abbot had his mouth mightily full.
For it was during his time as Grand Chancellor, he has engaged the a homosexual lobbyist and neo-Conservative politician, Andreas Schnider as the professor of religious education and catechetics.
He sees no loophole
Abbot Henckel of Donnersmarck criticized that most Europeans view freedom and wealth as the end point of development.
From that resulted a lack of desire for the future:
"Sooner or later the realization and the understanding will come that it is not the Church which stands in the void, but rather we ourselves."
A way out from the worldly, dictatorial relativism which is dominant throughout Europe and which is actually identified as the danger of our time, the Abbot can foresee no way out.
Actually he has the hope that Christendom allegedly worldwide, is caught "in an upswing".

Poland Crumbles to Sodom
Poland to end gay marriage abroad discrimination
27.04.2011 08:11 
The Ministry of Interior will issue a new type of certificate - which is needed for all couples, heterosexual or homosexual who wish to get married outside of Poland - without the section calling for the identification of the future spouse and so taking away the possibility that the registrar could refuse to sign it if he or she was against same-sex partnerships.
“Work is already underway and there will be a new type of certificate without the section concerning future spouses,” Ministry spokeswoman Małgorzata Woźniak told the Gazeta Wyborcza daily.
Currently, registry offices only issues the certificates to heterosexual couples. The new certificates will not require someone wanting to obtain the certificate to give the name of their partner.
The Campaign Against Homophobia says it has numerous examples of gay and lesbians being refused the certificate which would enable them to marry in the UK, Spain, the Netherlands or other countries where same-sex civil unions are legal. (pg)

Communion in the Hand Results in Sacrilege: "Moto Mass Switzerland"
 |
| Ehhhh, Moto Mass |
One Communicant even tried to get seven Hosts.
The Conciliar Church has thrown Holy Communion to the dogs: Now they must live with it.
(kreuz.net) A motorcyle blessing with Holy Mass will take place on the Simplon-Pass on the 1st of May.
The Pass connects the south-west Swiss Canton Wallis with Italy.
According to a report from the Swiss newspaper 'Blick', the occasion of the Motorcycle Friends is "almost holy already".
 |
| Moto Mass |
It will be organized by the Moto-Club of Simplon and will have been taking place for its 25th occasion this year.
About 4500 bikers appear every year for the event.
In the past years there was a New Mass said by the Old Liberal homosexual ideologue, Pastor Charly Weissen.
Fr. Weissen likes to appear there as the top dog -- most of all in his bike gear.
He wears earrings and a handlebar mustache.
A natural consequence of Communion in the Hand
This years bicycle blessing happens "under a bad star" -- lamented 'Blick' yesterday.
This is because the secular priest, Paul Martone of Brig, celebrated the divine service last year -- and was appalled.
At the news daily, 'Walliser Bote' he called the affair an "unworthy spectacle".
Why?: Many cyclists received the Host with a cigarette between their fingers.
There was also alcohol being consumed during the Eucharistic celebration.
One visitor tried to get seven Hosts.
From these sacrileges, Father Martone drew his own conclusions and wants to be saying only a liturgy of the word.
But NO, the Legend must Continue
Actually, the Moto-Club Simplon has no such concern:
"For more than a thousand visitors the participation of a few people, don't rate to have themselves receive anything more than the highest Liturgy in the Church" -- said the club president appealingly for 'Blick'.
During the Service at Simplon, there's a 'disciplined quiet".
One request on the website of the Club made the point that over ninety percent of the members want a Mass.
For that reason the Club itself is seeking a willing priest.
He should be ready to give a simpl "Mass exhibition [sic]" on the Simplon.
The president will be heard to say, tellingly, that one is also desirous of a "supper".

EU Continues to Propose "Sterner Measures" Against Opponents of Same-Sex Marriage
Editor: last week, just before Easter, we heard the rousing declaration of the Hungarian Parliament, along with howls of protest from many quarters, revoking its old Stalinist Constitution and invoking its first Christian King, St. Stephen, affirming Hungary's connection with Christendom and working against same-sex marriage. Here's the story from the German District Site of the SSPX:
Vivanne Reding, European Commissar for Justice and basic rights, read a speech in the last year for the EU-Parliament what the true significance of the EU is:
"We don't want any people to resist same-sex marriage. In case this isn't understood, we will have to employ sterner measures."
Now the EU commission would like to implement what Frau Reding had proposed and put it in a misleadingly good sounding request.
There will be fewer administrative restrictions for EU citizens through the recognition of all personal status among all of the EU Nations: that touches birth status as well as death, marriage, partnerships and adoption status.
That sounds good for the time being, practical and good. There are, however, in the EU, Nations with very different laws in effect regarding what are valid marriage and adoption rights. This will force conservative nations to accept liberal legal requirements, even if these conflict with their Constitutions.
If for example, two Hungarian lesbians "marry" in the Netherlands and receive semen to conceive a child and Mother 2 adopts it, Hungary then has to recognize the artificial "family" upon its return to enjoy all of the rights and privileges of a natural family.
Therefore a nation must recognize this situation, which would be in contradiction of its own legal system. This situation contravenes national sovereignty and the principle of subsidiarity.
The European Constitution prescribes the legal harmony of the right and agreement of family rights of the member states, and is expecting that the EU "guidelines" are enacted to promote "homosexual marriage" without a consensensus through the back door.
This is where the EU shows what its understanding of Democracy is. "A more stringent measure" sounds, if anything, like hard enforcement from above without the consideration of the opinion of the people and must probably deserves to be described as "Dictocratic"! It is also deplorable that these words come, of all things, from the Commissar for Justice and Basic Rights! Who still pleads for the true basic and natural rights of citizens in the EU, as for example, those rights of a child for a natural birth and to be raised in a family with father and mother? Must these adolescent children deserve to be sacrificed to these homosexual ideologues?
Whoever wishes can learn more about resisting the forced recognition of same sex "marriage" by the EU, here. It has English and German.
Vivanne Reding, European Commissar for Justice and basic rights, read a speech in the last year for the EU-Parliament what the true significance of the EU is:

This is where the EU shows what its understanding of Democracy is. "A more stringent measure" sounds, if anything, like hard enforcement from above without the consideration of the opinion of the people and must probably deserves to be described as "Dictocratic"! It is also deplorable that these words come, of all things, from the Commissar for Justice and Basic Rights! Who still pleads for the true basic and natural rights of citizens in the EU, as for example, those rights of a child for a natural birth and to be raised in a family with father and mother? Must these adolescent children deserve to be sacrificed to these homosexual ideologues?
Whoever wishes can learn more about resisting the forced recognition of same sex "marriage" by the EU, here. It has English and German.

Heroic Chinese Bishop Dies While Praying Easter Mass
Death of underground bishop of Luoyang. Decades under house arrest and hard labour
by Jian Mei
Bishop Li Hongye, sick for a long time, died during the Easter Vigil, in his 67th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. He suffered imprisonment for his loyalty to the pope. The funeral will be held April 29.
Luoyang (AsiaNews) – Mgr. Peter Li Hongye, 91, bishop of Luoyang (Henan) died of a heart attack on April 23 last, during the Easter Vigil, as he blessed the water before baptisms. He was approved by the Holy See, but not recognized by the government in Beijing. His faithful remember him for his fortitude in living his vocation and his suffering in the forced labour camps and the time spent under surveillance.
A priest from the diocese told AsiaNews that the funeral of Mgr. Li will next be held April 29 at the birthplace of the Prelate, Gong County, halfway between Zhengzhou and Luoyang.
Other sources tell AsiaNews that Mgr. Li knew Latin perfectly. During the 50s and 60s was sent to forced labour camps ("reform through labor") in Qinghai. Since the late 80's he has always lived under close surveillance or house arrest.

Cardinal Lehman to Remain in Office Past 75
Editor: Perhaps he's punishing Mainz, the Cardinal or both?
The Pope has once more given an impression on the street --- not in the sense of the renewal of the Church.
(kreuz.net) Pope Benedict XVI has not accepted the resignation of Cardinal Lehman of Mainz.
This was announced by the General Vicar, Dietmar Giebelmann today in an e-mail release.
Cardinal Lehman had offered his resignation to the Holy Father for his 75th Birthday on the 16th of May.
Actually on 19 April the Apostolic Nuncio in Berlin has given the order from the Roman Bishops Congregation that the Pope has asked the Cardinal to remain in office past his 75th Birthday.
The letter added "donec aliter provideatur" -- till something else is decreed.
The General Vicar thanked the Pope for the correspondence and wished the Cardinal continued health and God's blessing.
Cardinal Lehmen is seriously ill.
In the past, he has had to be treated for colon cancer.

Real Monasticism in Greece
Editor: Mount Athos has some of the same problems as St John's Abbey. There are Marxists on the Holy Mount, Monks with leftist ideologies, but there are also Monks who are serious about living a religious vocation, a quest for God, too. The Devil can be particularly strong anywhere, especially in a place where men strive like athletes to suffer God's love in the mysteries.
(CBS News)
On this Easter Sunday, we're going to take you to a place outside our world. It's not Mars or Venus but it might as well be. It's a remote peninsula in northern Greece that millions believe to be the most sacred spot on Earth.
It's called Mount Athos and prayers have been offered there every day, with no interruption, for more than a thousand years. It was set aside by ancient emperors to be the spiritual capital of Orthodox Christianity and has probably changed less over the centuries than any other inhabited place on the planet. The monks come to Mount Athos from all over and do everything they can to keep what they call "the world" far away.

Marxist Pine Curtain in Collegeville
 |
| Arrested Development Trustfund Kids |
Editor: Abbot John Klassen is a trustfund kid who runs one of the largest, fastest dying Monasteries in the world. He is not only a bully, but he's an expert liar, or could it be that he's in denial like a drunkard or an opium eater? He reminds us of another political trustifarian, Karl Marx. [+Klassen is complicit in these crimes because he continues to protect those who committed them and lie for them] For the Abbot, like Karl Marx, had wealthy benefactors that enabled him and those close to him to live irresponsible lives, insulated from growing up, and capable of grave moral evil who didn't just molest other people's children, but his own. In any event, both options are possible. Most modern religious live comfortable lives as the beneficiaries of charitable trusts or wealthy patrons. The only thing really distinguishing most from trustifarians, rentier kids or Paris Hilton's friends, is the misappropriated air of respectability they enjoy and occasionally, some kind of religious lip service to a monastic tradition.
Many trust fund kids, as they present themselves and as they are portrayed in the media, aren't what you'd call philanthropists, but like Abbott John Klassen, they are often in a state of denial about their general situation. Not only is there a complete lack of charity in Abbott Klassen's approach, but there's a lot of irresponsibility as well. For example, he plans on allowing a sexual predator, Father Francisco Schulte, to go back to work with children again, and he's also been destroying, or losing the records on file about the various perpetrators they have aided in the past do their Kinseyan dance.
Father Klassen recently made an untrue and off the cuff remark about the website, "Behind the Pine Curtain". His obvious exaggeration, if not outright calumny, goes far to establish the kind of childish approach to the religious life these men have been fostering for decades. If only it were Pine Curtain's mission to run St. John's into the ground. He could actually say that about this blog, because we think that St. John's is probably too far gone to be restored to the original purpose of its founders. If it were ours to say, the Monks of St. John's would be brought to account for betraying more than three generations of Catholics with erroneous representations of the Catholic Faith, and their own imposture as Catholic religious. St. Benedict of Nursia didn't plan on Monasteries being full of homosexual social workers who routinely go on pleasure vacations to Thailand and disobey the lawful commands of their superiors, but that's St. John's. It's not Catholic. It's a hell of syncretism and deceit.
Basically, St. Johns' leadership is irresponsible, dishonest and evil, and the really interesting thing in all of this is that Collegeville has been persecuting Catholics just as steadfastly as any Communist behind the Iron Curtain. Try arguing against one of those nuns or liberal faculty members in the theology department with the right stuff as a poor student, and you'll find your grade substantially lowered and consequently, your career potential significantly lowered, at least in theology.
We think Mr. Marker's choice for the title of his blog is as brilliant as it is accurate, because what goes on at that place is nothing short than the nastiest most underhanded persecution of the Catholic Church in the world, and one of the biggest frauds too. Those of you who have listened to Bishop Sheen's talks should know of Communist infiltration in the Catholic Church as they were described by ex-Communist and Attorney, Bella Dodd. Indeed, what goes on behind the Pine Curtain, often stays behind the Pine Curtain, including students who go missing like Josh Guimond. Who would guess that not only is your friendly priest, professor, alleged friend, a homosexual predator, but he's a Marxist as well. If nothing else, the place needs an exorcism and a visit by the spirit of Augusto Pinochet.

Here's an excerpt,
Abbot Klassen Still Doesn’t Get It
Posted on April 20, 2011 by admin
An excerpt from an April 15, 2011 article [ View ] in the St. John’s University student newspaper regarding the recent “Listening Sessions” held by Abbot John Klassen:
One audience member asked Klassen to address the website Behind the Pine Curtain, run by Patrick Marker, as many think this is the only source to find information regarding pending cases. “It’s a real thorn in our sides because the person who runs that has one agenda and that is to run St. John’s into the ground,” Klassen said.

Immemorial Rite Canceled by Diocese of Treviso
That's the way it always happens
A pastor wanted to celebrate a Holy Mass in the Old Rite of his youth for his sixtieth priestly jubilee. Actually though, there was still a Diocesan Bishop, who'd been named there by Benedict XVI.
(kreuz.net) For white Sunday the Priest of many days Pietro Mozzato of Vetrego planned to organize a Mass in the Old Rite in his parish.
The 1400 person community of Vetrego is a suburb of the city of Mirano -- it's about 25 kilometers northwest of Venice. Vetrego belongs to the Diocese of Treviso.
Father Mozzato wanted to celebrate his 60th priestly jubilee in the Old Rite of the Mass.
A celebrant, Father Konrad zu Löwenstein was foreseen as the celebrant. The father takes care of Traditionalists in Venice.
The Priestly Council supported the wish of the priest.
Fr. Mozzato had even printed invitations for the event.
Actually, then, the Diocese of Treviso caught wind of the situation.
The General Vicar Giuseppe Rizzo wrote quickly on the spot. He forbid the Old Mass.
This was the report from Vaticanist Andrea Tornielli directly on his Website 'andreatornielli.it'.
The "Diocesan Curia" is set against the Mass -- the General Vicar hides himself behind a board.
The Bishop of Treviso is the former Franciscan Conventual and Roman Curial Bishop, Msgr Gianfranco (67).
He was named to Treviso by Pope Benedict XVI in 2009.
Tornielli explained that the local Priestly Council had received word of the Old Mass -- and confirmed it.
If the Old Liberals are questioned, they intone the authority of such Boards -- otherwise, they're ignoring this one.
The Priestly Council has protested in vain to the Bishop in Treviso.
According to word from Tornielli they haven't even received word.
In the meantime Fr. Mozzato has smoothed out the official abuse of his curial powers.
The Old Mass has been denied.
