I’ve listened to hours of Fr. Ripperger’s conferences and white nationalism has never popped in my head. Republican supporter yeah but he still looks at them as the lesser of two evils. He’s criticized Hispanics who have Aztec practices as opening themselves up to the diabolic, but as an exorcist that makes sense.
 
What I like about Fr. Ripperger is that he’s very precise and very good at giving the “how” and “why” when discussing things.
 
I have never said Fr.Ripperger is a white nationalist,
However, I have felt that the Sensus Fidelium FB page occasionally promotes the idea of nationalism (possibly white). They are close friends with diabolic sites like Church Militant which clearly is white nationalist. Birds of same feather flock together

I never found any talk in SF about the cruel policy of separating children from their parents which tear apart families yet SF priests found time to attack Sr. Cristina from Italy in one of their recent talks.

SF even demanded resignation of Pope Francis and owner of the FB page claims SF is in communion with Rome

Catholics are allowed to voice opinions on whether they think the pope should resign if they feel it is for the good of the church. That said, I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing so myself nor do I think it’s realistic for people to expect it.
 
Read my comment above carefully.
In one talk priests asks people to boycott products from China because of christian persecution not taking into consideration that if Americans start boycotting chinese it is eventually the chinese people especially the poor who will suffer. But I am sure all these priests will be using products made and sold by massive sodomite companies like Amazon/Apple/Starbucks to name a few…
Double standards
 
Im sure that 100% of the sermons are from FSSP priests, an order I want to join. They are in full communion with Rome, however they are traditionalists and are anti the V2 reforms. Pope Benedict the XVI visited their seminary in Nebraska. http://www.fsspolgs.org/en/about/fssp/

I found this interesting and disturbing. I had no idea that Catholics were treated like that in the early years of settlement. It gave me an emotional bond in my mind with Catholics that I never felt before because my forebears were also treated similarly in the old country. I felt a twinge in my soul when I heard him talk about the experiences the Catholic people went through. But therein lies the paradox. I have been raised to believe strongly in the separation of church and state for it is that principle that gave relief and freedom from the oppression of the Catholic Church that was delivered to my ancestors in Europe. The Catholic Church had numerous centuries of opportunity to show how nicely Church and State belong together for the good of all citizens, however, that has proved erroneous.

The bottom line for me is that separation of church and state is a crucial aspect of religious freedom in civilization. The only situation where the combination of Church and State is desirable to a citizen is when his particular religion is the one enforced by the State.
 
I would say it is a reaction to the human desire for absolutes. Yet, not everything fits neatly into a box.
 
Well, first of all, I’m glad you took the time to listen to the sermon.

Second, the idea of separation of Church and State was condemned by pope Pius XI I believe.
 
Some of these priests in SF are constantly attacking Pope.
Wonder where their obedience is. May be they can learn from padre Pio
 
I think separation of church and state is a very good thing for the Catholic Church. And I think the docs of Vatican II said positive things about separation
 
The idea of the separation of of Church and State was condemned by Pope Pius XI.
 
So, Catholics ought not to hold the idea that the Church and State should be separated.
 
From Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connections with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked: Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice ? And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”
 
That’s not the same thing at all as the separation of church and state

Not even close. The idea that morality is necessary for a society to thrive isn’t the same thing as the idea that the church should control the state

Honestly the church is more protected when it is separate from the state. One could even argue that the very idea of separation of church and state came from the Catholic Church

Are you also in favor of the papal decree Pope Pius xi gave in 1922 titled “Crimen Solicitationis”?
