| Immaculate Heart of Mary Chapel, Linden, VA |
Editor's note: All the information in the commentary below by Brian Kopp is first hand witnessed by Brian himself and the people involved and/or their parents. The situation in the Front Royal area is tragic. Rather than recognizing who the real enemy is, the local diocese and parishes have chosen to attack the SSPX and those who attend the chapel. It is hard to believe a priest would label a faithful believing and practicing Catholic as "not a Catholic." My question would be, "Father, is James Martin a Catholic as he promotes sins that cry to heaven for vengeance? How about the new head of DDF (Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith) who is about to be made a cardinal? Víctor Manuel Fernández covered up abuse allegations for years. Is he a danger to the faith? Is he a Catholic? Is Archbishop Paglia, who put a blasphemous homoerotic fresco in his cathedral complete with his own image in a red zucchetto, a faithful Catholic? These men occupy high level positions at the Vatican. And you're going to tell me that those who go to the SSPX chapel aren't Catholic? Really?"
