Angelus Press

[Lonevoice]

Well, barring any resolution regarding Angelus Press , there are always alternatives. Two that I like are:

sophiainstitute.com

tanbooks.com

Try 'em, you’ll like 'em!!!

What does this “union with Rome” exactly mean?

“Union” means not in any state of schism, nor engaged in varying degrees of “respectful disobedience” to Rome.

Must we subject even such a clear, self-evident phrase under scrutiny?

 

[EddieArent]

Given that the Angelus Press gives nothing but a great Catholic perspective on many issues, then I support it 100%. As for refusing anyone to the face, Cardinal Biffi called the anti-Christ one who presents himself as a “pacifist, ecologist and ecumenist.” Aren’t these three main themes that the modern bishops strive to be? Espcially the last element.

 

[EddieArent]

This is very strange. You refuse to call them schismatics when Lefebvre himself calls us schismatics. The late Archbp. Lefebvre is quoted on Angelus Online that accused us (termed the “Conciliar” Church) as being the ones who are in schism.

Angelus Press anyone?

Cardinal Ratzinger was contemplated if the New Mass brought along a new religion. There is no way that a relevant Latin Mass in Sanford is the same faith as a clown retreat down the road in Apopka.

I hope that this is not taken as muddying the waters either.
The above quote shows us the mind of Our Holy Father to cease supporting these groups in any way…I understand this to mean monetary as well.

As far as I understand, it is permissible to make a small tithe to an SSPX chapel. I think this was said in a Vatican document, but I can’t find it.

Purchasing from Angelus press is just like buying something from a Protestant bookstore. Its not where you shop, but what your shopping for.

Angelus Press is the only publishing house that provides me with the traditional literature I often look for.

Missa, I don’t think we can equate Angelus Press with a protestant bookstore.

There is also Tan Books, which has great traditional books. I use both.

Hmmm…This is actually a rather good argument except for the fact that I don’t shop at Protestant bookstores either really. Secular,yes but Western Christian no.

Also, I’m not buying from Tan until they ditch Atila Sinke Guimaraes, Vennari, and pals. Thankfully we have a good used book sale around here where I snatch up all of the other good TAN books.

Who is Atila Sinke Guimaraes, Vennari, and pals?

Remant and CFN people.

There is a difference between making an informed decision based on religious and morals beliefs, or just making a purchase.

I will not buy things from nor support gay rights, pro-choice, abortion rights based on their rather vocal stands.
I will not buy nor make purchases from any religious group that has separated themselves from Holy Mother Church by their rather vocal condemnations of Her teaching or the Holy Father, the Vicar of Christ.
If these groups operate under other umbrella names I am not obligated to research each and every purchase I make.
If there are any theologians in ***Union with Rome ***who would like to comment on this …please help me out.

I am not a theologian.
However Catholics are not expected to boycott non-members. There is no need to refuse to employ a plumber because he is Muslim, for instance.

It gets a little bit more difficult when a non-Catholic group sells things as part of a propaganda operation, for instance on a street stall or through a bookshop, or selling leaflets door to door. The extent to which the group contradicts Catholic teaching will vary; it may be non-Catholic but not deliberately anti-Catholic, it may be anti-Catholic, it may be, like SSPX, claiming to have an insight into what the Church should be doing.
Then the goods may or may not have some legitimate commerical value, the people may be reasonable and open to discussion or very bigoted, the literature may or may not have intellectual merit.
So for instance I make no apology for buying a copy of Dawkins’ “The God Delusion”, because it is a serious work, and the convention is that authors and publishers take royalties. On the other hand I probably wouldn’t buy a “pro-Choice” video from a stall.

It’s not so simple as an absolute boycott on all non-Catholic business. It goes to the propogation of ideas hostile to the Church and reasonable alternatives. For instance, let’s say you want to donate to a charity that helps clean up drug addicts. The only one you can find and check out to the extent you can donate is run by Protestants, who will very likely be packaging their version of Christianity with what they do - if you don’t have a better alternative, though, I don’t think people would tell you to leave the addicts hanging because the Protestants are pushing error. If, however, you found a comparable charity that also faithfully presented the teaching of the Church, thus eliminating the danger to souls, why would you choose to support the more dangerous alternative (ceteris paribus)?

Well, if Mary withdrew her newspaper subscription, I kinda doubt that would result in any monetary crisis for the publisher.

but she wouldn’t be “bankrolling” them as you put it in an earlier post.

I’m not familiar with these authors. What’s up with them? Are they sedes?

Sede’s? No. they are writers who disagree with [edited by moderator], have a sympatheric ear toward the SSPX.
In short, Atila Sinke Guimaraes is a Brazilian traditional pragmatist.
[Edited by moderator] thinks he’s from the dark side after he jointly published:We Resist You to the Face.
I have found that 95% of his reporting is factual, and the other 5% is of no great consequence.
Here are some of his books.
He has a lot to say about the proposed Motu Proprio on the TLM
I enjoy his writings because they are factually supported to the hilt, and his conclusions are well thought out & experienced.
His single most important contribution is that there is evil in the clergy of the Church and it resides in the Left Ventricle.

Thanks for the links. Evil in the clergy?? Who woulda thought?

I was hoping it would have calcified by now.
