Most Holy Family Monastery is a sedevacantist organization run by Michael Dimond. Due to its publication of a pamphlet entitled "101 Heresies of Anti-Pope John Paul II" it was declared "a dissident organization that challenges the papal authority" by The Catholic League in January, 1999. The group has also been condemned by the Catholic diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska,〔() 〕 and was designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Active Radical Traditional Catholicism Groups )〕 ==History== Most Holy Family Monastery was founded in 1967, in Berlin, New Jersey, by a self-proclaimed Benedictine monk named Joseph Natale (1933-1995), originally as a community for handicapped men. Natale entered the (Benedictine Archabbey in Latrobe, Pennsylvania ), in 1960 as a lay postulant, but left less than a year later to start his own Holy Family Monastery. According to an archivist of the Saint Vincent Archabbey in Latrobe, Natale left before taking vows; he never actually became a Benedictine monk.〔 Throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, Natale denounced the Second Vatican Council and the New Mass, and by the mid-1970s the community had separated from the Vatican. By mid-1980s, there were ten monks in it, but by 1994 the number declined to three. Shortly after a conference in 1994, John Vennari left to work for Fr. Nicholas Gruner. Natale died in 1995, whereupon Michael Dimond (born Frederick Dimond), who joined in 1992 at the age of 19 after converting to Catholism four years earlier, was elected the Superior. Soon after, he relocated to Granger, New York (close to Fillmore, New York), where Natale owned more than of donated land.〔() 〕 Dimond supported Gerry Matatics when he held similar beliefs. Michael and Peter Dimond's position condemning the Vatican's promotion of Natural Family Planning (a Fertility awareness method for married couples to regulate conception, pregnancy, and birth) was noted in the 2010 book ''Twentieth-Century Global Christianity'' by Fortress Press, as "an admittedly rare example of contemporary opposition". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Most Holy Family Monastery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
