Attack on EWTN and Mother Angelica Pat Wednesday, August 26, 2015

Question:

On a web-site titled Catholic Apologetic Information and under the topics portion called Modern Problems, after choosing this category you get to choose, What’s your question which opens to your choice of Current Errors from which you can choose from a list given. In that list was Problems with EWTN based upon an interview with Christopher Ferrara based upon his new book, EWTN A Network Gone Wrong.

This was a most disheartening report on the failure of EWTN to continue to teach the true Catholic faith. I am at a complete loss at this allegation being made because I have watched EWTN for more than 30 years and find such an accusation to be completely false.

Can you please comment on this disgraceful attack upon EWTN and Mother Angelica?

Pat

Dear Pat:

Ignore what these people at Catholic Apologetic Information or Christopher Ferrara says. This organization, and its people, are either not in communion with the Church or only barely so. They come from the bunch that are Ultra-Traditional (and some may be sedevacantist, which means they think the Pope is an anti-Pope and the chair of Peter is empty).

Since these people seem to think that they are their own magisterium they evaluate others according to their own perverted biases. Those biases are not consistent with the Church.

Thus, ignore them, do not go to their website, and do not read their articles or books.

Pray for them to give up their delusions and pride and instead come back into full communion with the Church, both in fact and in philosophically.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
