This is where Bishop Fellay came from... Also from this quote of yours: Not a straw man argument. If I remember correctly, you are a stickler for language. I was pointing out an issue.
I think you misunderstand the "tone," as did Booklady, apparently. My attempt is to be clear. Bishop Lemay clearly states he is acting as Bishop of Amos. The quote was included. " I withdraw my support and that of the Diocese of Amos ..." He also mentioned the collaboration with his Vicar General, by the way, so I don't believe it is just a case of the bishop vs. Fr. Rodrigue.
I would steer well clear of Fr Rodrique. His new Bishop diocese website here. http://hearstdiocese.com/diocese/ ( if you wish to contact that Bishop).
Well, Christy, I do apologize to you and everyone for writing the wrong name for Bishop Lemay. Nevertheless, thank you for bringing it to my attention, because I did not catch it cognitively, and I should have. I am old, but this could be the onset of something very bad for me. Peace Christy, I stand corrected, and God Bless you and pray for me. And if anyone knows who Bishop Fellay is, please let me know.
From wikipedia... Bernard Fellay, SSPX is a Swiss bishop and former superior general of the Traditionalist Catholic priestly fraternity Society of Saint Pius X. In 1988, Pope John Paul II announced that Fellay and three others were automatically excommunicated for being consecrated as bishops by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, an act that the Holy See described as "unlawful" and "schismatic"... It being 2020 and all, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets involved in this mess.
Awwww booklady...I pray you are ok...your post here made me feel awful. God bless and protect you. You are In my prayers!
Booklady, you and I are in the same decade, I think. It’s probably just normal for our age. Things change. Cognitively, I’m not the same as twenty years ago, but I’m normal for my age group. I’m not a nitwit. Yet. So I wouldn’t think too much about it. but I will pray My big thing is trying to remember names now The other day my husband and I drove past a ramshackle building that used to be a pizza parlor. Neither one of us could remember what it used to be called. I asked Blessed Mother to help me remember the name. A few hours later, it came to me. Lazy J’s.

In response to your first question. It goes without saying Father Rodrigue is an ordained Priest. Unless a Bishop defrocks him he remains a Priest. To be honest I find the nitty gritty picking apart everything to do with Father Rodrigue more than tedious, it quite frankly bores me. The message he shared to get right in the sight of God, because we could be facing who knows what in the very near future, does not sound like a message we ought to ignore. There is a piece on the front of Spirit Digest today, I think it is by the person who publishes the site to say among other things. Father Rodrigue's Bishop has been bombarded by people on the phone crying/panicking and no doubt others demanding he make Father R put up or shut up. I suspect the poor Bishop is sick to the back teeth having his diocesan duties bombarded with self proclaimed experts and other panic driven souls looking for him to tell them everything is business as usual, no need to repent. Best of luck with that. The Bishop does not know the future, as far as I can see, he doesn't believe in visions and supernatural things. I am sure he is a good and noble Bishop, just not into end times stuff. God bless him. That is all I can say. We just need to pray for the Bishop, and all Bishops God give them the courage to proclaim the good news, and repentance.
Thank you Julia for your response to my question. And you are again, correct we need to pray for all Bishops right now .
When I read that piece on Spirit Digest I had to pinch myself thinking that I had written it myself....maybe in a dream or something!
I decided earlier on to go off on another trail and revisit Pelianito (Janet Glasson), who was always gentle Christianity, no shocks, no alarms!!!!! It can get too intense sometimes, so a break or a change is as good as a rest. Now there is nowhere to hide. Her site is full to the brim of the imminent expectations I was trying to get away from. Could that be a sign.
I used to follow her site. When her. Bishop asked her to desist she obeyed and took down her site. I have missed her. I believe she is the "real deal".
Well there are signs and there are signs. Who knows? Rosaries! Holy Hours! Weekly confession if possible. Mass. Tried and true RX for any time any age.
A Facebook friend pointed this out to me. It's about Christine Watkins' book, The Warning. Christine is a lead author on the "Countdown" site, perhaps the person most responsible for promoting Fr. Rodrigue on social media and in her book. Becky Malmquist July 29 · We’re adding this to the list of things that are red flags regarding “The Warning” book and the Countdown to the Kingdom website. The Imprimatur on “The Warning” book is not the acting bishop, but a bishop emeritus. Also, the bishop who gives the Imprimatur should be of the diocese where the book was published. The book was published in Sacramento, CA, but the retired bishop who gave the Imprimatur is in Lipa, Philippines. Edit: We’ve learned from Emmett O'Regan that this same bishop issued an Imprimatur for [non-Catholic mystic banned on MoG], who was censured by the Vatican. For the list of red flags, see this post: https://www.facebook.com/4932604/posts/10112025682941830/?d=n .
