“He was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. After completing high school, he attended the University of California at Berkeley, receiving a B.A. with honors in Latin and Greek.
“Upon graduation, he entered Most Holy Trinity Seminary in the fall of 2003, being ordained in 2009. After ordination, he served as Assistant Pastor at St. Gertrude the Great Church in Ohio for three years, returning to California in 2012.”
Now he is in Modesto and teaches with Queen of All Saints Online Academy.
I admire him because he resisted all the modern cultural trends: 1) trampling God, 2) worshipping woman, and 3) brainwashing children.
Any child could say, “I’m not a vet, but I know what a dog is. I’m not a doctor, but I know what a woman is.”

The Latin Mass is Christianity 101.
A mentally challenged child or adult knows this.
Whether you are using the 1962 Missal or an earlier one makes no difference. If you are receiving the sacraments, that’s all that matters.
To my fellow traditional Catholic: Look, if your lived experience were Saigon in the Vietnam War or France during WWII, disagreement would not matter. If you happen to be living in present-day Ukraine, disagreements don’t matter. You go to church where you can. That’s how I judge disagreements. Down-to-earth people do not engage them. If you have spent any time working the street or the classroom, you know this.
None of the Mass needed changing. The elitists and crackpot academics should have been quarantined, not us. The modern Mass brought division, and evil entered the Church with it. The horrendous problems and terrible decline of the United States and the West, which we are seeing now, are the result of a half century of departing from the true faith. We must leave the false church of modernism.

A good example of leaving the modernist church is Alfredo Méndez-Gonzalez

Many I know have given in to modernism. I can’t do that. All my life I have rejected servile obedience – to principal, school board, peer group, friends. Perhaps, that is the reason God kept me out of the priesthood. I would not be misled.
It is hard to be a remnant or recusant. I know what it is like to be excluded by people who are supposed to love me. I have drifted toward the outcast because I am an outcast. My parents were the only exceptions; they were the only people who actually knew me.
The Latin Mass is not going away. We will go underground if necessary. This is what Christ would want.
One of the things I have noticed about the traditional priests is that they are disciplined, which guarantees that 99% are living a chaste life. A priest who is not is condemned to hell.
It is so sad how many Catholics have strayed. Any time I talk with these people, I am 100% disappointed. It is so sad how many non-Catholic Christians have failed by way of their own invincible ignorance to find the true Church. Any time I talk with these people, I am 100% bored.
My attitude about ecumenism is ‘u-can-come-in-ism’.
I have lots of patience for children and none for adults. As a result, I would make the terrible missionary I never aspired to be.
