The evil spirit of the Pharisees

MHFM: “There are many today who are denouncing as invalid and “fake” religious who are living the religious life, and fulfilling their religious vows in dedication to a particular order, but who may not have been approved to be part of an order in the way that is done when there is a valid pope and Catholic ordinaries everywhere: by a superior approved by a Major Religious Superior who was approved by a pope – simply because such approval today is not possible.

All such denunciations are rash and betray not only the evil spirit of the Pharisees, but an ignorance of Church history and the nature of these laws. They reveal that such persons don’t possess a true knowledge of God, how He works, or how He looks at things.”
