You're listening to the SSPX podcast and welcome to episode 11 of the Crisis in the Church series.

Today we're joined by Father Paul Robinson, the prior of St. Isidors in Denver, Colorado.

Last episode we learned from Father Franks about the background of modernism,

and today, in our explanation of modernist thought, we'll see how this modernist ideology

twists the very nature of religion.

We'll take a look back at more recent history and see how the Pachamama and the Sisi

scandals have their root in the exact same errors that Pope St. Pius X, warned the Catholic

Church about in his groundbreaking encyclical Pichendi.

Now, we'll turn to our conversation with Father Robinson.

We are tackling just a small topic today, modernism, nothing big.

So we have just finished talking with our priest with Father Rooder and Father Loop about liberalism.

So now we're going into modernism.

And if you would ask me probably 10, 15 years ago, I would have said, well, liberalism means you're liberal and modernism means you just like new things and modern things and innovative things.

So, but we can trace modernism's effects pretty clearly to a lot of things that are happening

in our church today.

Even things like, for instance, the Pachamama scandal or the Assisi scandal that we've already

talked about in some of these podcasts.

Would it be fair to say that those are a result of modernism?
