Yeah, this is BAD. I suspect the SSPX/Angelus/+Fellay simply didn’t do their homework on this guy, but, COME ON. Anytime “Theology of the Bawdy” is mentioned, RED ALERT! Duh!
For those who don’t know, Angelus Press is the SSPX’s publishing house.
This Novus Ordo priest of the diocese of Lincoln, NE is named Fr. Sean Kilcawley. I have transcribed his sickening blasphemy in this video below:
“And a better way of approaching our temptations, instead of asking Our Lord to take them away – which gives us the impression that Jesus enters into our life to take away our temptations so that we can then fix ourselves and eventually be worthy of Him to come back and enter in, is to simply invite Our Lord into our temptation and into our thoughts in the present moment. To say, “Jesus, I want to look at pornography right now.” Or, “Jesus, I’m having an impure thought right now. You’re welcome into my imagination. You’re welcome to watch these thoughts with me.”
This is SO SICK, and I can tell you right now that every less-than-well-catechized person who would hear this would say, “Oh, okay. That priest said it’s okay to willfully entertain impure thoughts, and even watch porn, as long as I ask Jesus to watch. And then if I don’t stop, and take it to completion, I guess that means Jesus was cool with it, otherwise He would have stopped me. And it was an SSPX event, so he must be right….”
Action Item: Get this guy OFF the Angelus Press program.
Here, again, is the link to the event.
I would recommend contacting both Angelus Press and the SSPX directly.
Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
