Anniversary of the forum approaching

It is useful to have a female moderator for dealing with the Mary Garden.

This is an echo of my earlier call for subforum-specific mods. Heinrich for The Alps, Michael Wilson for The Sedevacantist Thesis, etc.

Can we have a "Contra Judaism" subforum pretty please

If anyone was listening who had the power to do this, you would have been permabanned months ago...

So I guess being a moderator is a bit like herding cats then?

Pretty much.  I've been one in multiple places, some of which had much more activity than SD.  I wouldn't volunteer again.

Why would this earn a perma ban?....genuine question

Nothing wrong with asking for a subforum.  It's the calumny and unhinged hostility that are banworthy.

Hostility yes but calumny?

So I see KK is back do some moderation tasks and it is really bringing home to me just how much work is involved.  Every time somebody breaks the rules such that moderator intervention is required it is making more work for a person who is volunteering his time here as well as providing the operating expenses for this forum. 

There are lots of people here who would say that they are grateful to KK for giving us the opportunity to use the forum but one of the best ways to show it is to not make extra work for him.

  I just needed to vent.  I feel better now.

This thread has gone all over the place. I just want to comment on G.O.G.'s criticism of Msgr. Lefebvre in which he believed that Msgr. L. In a letter to my Dad, was acting duplicitously on the subject of the re-ordination of priests that were ordained in the new rite of orders, who worked with the SSPX. According to Fr. Cekada, Msgr. Originally had doubts as to the validity of the new rite of orders, but latter changed his opinion. However,  he was willing to re-ordain priests ordained in the new rite who requested it, or which the faithful requested it. He replied to my Dad in the manner that he did, because he was  not against performing the re-ordinations, and to accommodate the faithful who did have doubts as to the validity of the new rite. There was nothing duplicitous in his response, but rather it showed his great charity and prudence in dealing with questions which were open for discussion.

Yes, I would agree if by "duplicitous" you mean "lying." I think what GiftofGod meant was a "double meaning." Archbishop Lefebvre was genuinely of "two minds," as you yourself express so well in your post. He went back and forth between believing that the new rite of ordination was invalid or not invalid.

It seems the Archbishop went back and forth on many issues. This is not a criticism of him. Everyone was confused at the time. It was difficult, if not impossible, to be certain of the right answers.

Today it is 50 years later, and the issue is coming back to haunt us. If the Ecclesia Dei societies are forbidden to have traditional ordinations, then the question of the validity of N.O. ordinations is going to return with full force.
