  • The blog header depicts an important and yet mis-understood New Testament scene, Jesus flogging the money-changers out of the temple. I selected it because the faith that gives us consolation can also make us very uncomfortable. Both Divine Mercy and Divine Justice meet in Jesus. Priests are ministers of reconciliation, but never at the cost of truth. In or out of season, we must be courageous in preaching and living out the Gospel of Life. The title of my blog is a play on words, not Flogger Priest but Blogger Priest.

    Freedom for everyone but Traditional Catholics!

    FATHER JOE: But the SSPX itself criticised the very notion of religious liberty as espoused by the bishops. What you really mean is freedom of conscience, but that is another Vatican II teaching they reject. They would argue that error has no rights. Well, you can’t have it both ways. It is hypocritical to argue rights for themselves that they would refuse to others. Truthfully the Church is not a democracy, but they insisted upon a vote before rejecting the Pope’s offer for reunion. Ah, as I said before, so much for obedience.
