I've gotten all kinds of letters from students who were there, who praised [Society priests] to the skies for giving them a manly faith, because of the way they were treated there," Timlin says.

What, exactly, is a "manly faith"?

Timlin was hoodwinked and couldn't bring himself to admit it to Dreher. And, notice, Dreher didn't formulate an opinion. He just presented Timlin's and the SSJ's side of the story.

Which is fishy as hell.

I agree, this is a nuanced report. It is also true that the Society of St. John does not use the '62 missal and can therefore not be considered traditional--something Sinkspur needs to make note of.
