Petrae Defensor writes in response to a letter from John Sanderson (regarding an article by Lois Lang-Sims which criticized the modern Catholic Church). Patrae Defensor agrees with Sims, arguing that while the Church will remain to the end of time, that does not mean that strong action is not required to preserve large sections of the tradition from being invalidated. “If he cannot follow Christ's precedent and drive out the desecrators, then let him stay at home and pray for himself and for the Church… If Christ is an example to be followed, let the Church judge and condemn our times as he did his.”
