Do Plain Catholics exist?

[Ken]

Out of the roughly 1.4 Billion Catholics in the world, there are no doubt a few who dress plainly and share various ideals that might be common in plain Anabaptist congregations.

But are there actual "plain" Catholic congregations that adhere to some alternate "plain" doctrine that differs from official Catholic teaching. And that would presumably have to be run by some sort of apostate priests in defiance of their diocese?

To my knowledge, one has produced evidence that any such congregations exist, much less provided the address of such a church that anyone could look up and go visit.

Catholics do exist. Some of them appear to copy Amish/Mennonite patterns of lifestyle and a cohesive group calling themselves “Plain Catholics” within the Catholics doesn’t factually exist by any confirmed Catholic outside of Max.

Three members of the Old German Baptist Brethren watch Friday as the Cedar Creek Meeting House rolls down an Anderson County road 12 miles west of Garnett. The 1898 structure was being moved to a new location.

Not to mention the fact that this wordpress site in question hasn't been updated in 14 years.

This incident is not the first time. Back in the early days of Menno discuss he posted pictures he passed off as homes of plain Catholics to demonstrate their lifestyle. The pictures were of a display from a living history museum.

Maybe we should put this back in the "lying" thread after all.

I'm getting totally lost with what to post where. Might be my old age but I'm having trouble following these threads.

Yes, likewise.

So Max, do you know who ran that blog? Perhaps you can ask them why they are using Anabaptists for their picture?

I ran across this group known as what I would think are 'plain Catholics' and one of their congregations live only 30 minutes from me in Windsor, Ontario. They seem to me to be quite 'plain' in their ways. Details on them can be found here - https://madonnahouse.org/about/ and here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madonna_House_Apostolate

They are found in various places in North America and elsewhere.
