Probably already discussed but is “Trad Recovery” a heterodox group?
I heard this from someone here. I recommended someone who left the SSPX to it. I’ve been somewhat active on there myself and while I can’t speak to commenters it seems the woman who runs it is orthodox and within the church and isn’t some left wing heterodox type unless being anti ton is left wing.
I will say I can understand how some might feel it is bashing trads but also the point is to help people who may have been hurt by bad actors in such a movement. Is that wrong?
So is this group heterodox or not. I’m worried because I have anxiety myself about being a shitty Catholic compared to many, especially on here, but it’s not like I’m liberal. I hate abortion and euthanasia and defend the church’s position on marriage yet it seems that for a number of resins whether it’s that I attend a regular mass or use NFP or have a wife who has a job that I’m some horrible Catholic with liberal politics and deserve scorn.
It doesn’t help to that in real life I have a friend who I was close with who now has not only become more or less a home alone trad but is convinced of a whole ton of conspiracies and basically says I’m a bad catholic for following a false church that doesn’t follow God so I feel welcome in a space where I can talk about this. Also I have a kind of dark fascination with schismatic Catholicism and debunking conspiracies in general.
Thanks and I hope this can be a nice conversation. I hope I’m not making anyone upset. I just want to know if I’m following orthodox groups.
