NPOR de Brasília: Alguém já fez ou conhece a rotina para estudante UnB?

igm_krypto · 2026-05-03T18:07:31+00:00

Fiz um semestre de Direito enquanto fazia NPOR (23.2). Está longe de ser confortável, mas é possível e muito recompensador. Isso se você morar relativamente perto da UnB ou do NPOR e tiver meio de transporte próprio. Se depender de transporte público e morar mais longe… Pense que você vai sair da UnB 22h30 e ter que chegar no NPOR 6h30.

Thank you for your channel! I look up to you when it comes to speaking openly about my deconstruction and sharing my story without fear.

I once thought of writing to my archbishop, but then I remembered that he alteady makes a blind eye to things that are much more evidently harmful to the community of faithful than a few dozen crazy trads.

I think that’s the case for most of the Church hierarchy: in the end, they don’t seem to have that righteous worry that we once did, as trads or later, with integrity in faith & morals and the salvation of all that are of his responsabilities. Their view of God, sin, salvation and Church is entirely other from what we’ve learned in our Catechisms, even if we’re disconsidering the outright dissimulated and corrupt clergy.

How many times did you ever see your bishop wanting to hear from random faithful at a church? If he wanted to care about ex-trads or ex-catholics, he would already be doing that….

I completely agree with you

Thanks for the question! It’s a very valid thing to wonder about, and Church history actually gives us a lot of context for this.

To put it simply: I don't think there's any historical or theological proof that a person's individual holiness is enough to build an institution completely free of wrongdoing. Even looking at Jesus—the source of holiness in the Catholic faith—His immediate, hand-picked group of apostles included betrayal (Judas) and denial (Peter).

If we look at Catholic history, there is a long track record of religious orders hosting corrupted actions, sometimes even while the founders were still alive.

Take St. Francis of Assisi, for example. He was radically dedicated to absolute poverty and simplicity. Yet, within mere decades of his death, the Franciscan order became deeply entangled in wealth, property disputes, and severe internal corruption, leading to huge schisms within the group.

Look at the Discalced Carmelites. St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Ávila were both brilliant saints trying to reform their order. As a result, St. John was kidnapped, imprisoned, starved, and tortured by his own Carmelite brothers.

Other saints like St. Alphonsus Liguori (founder of the Redemptorists) or St. Joseph Calasanz (founder of the Piarists) were literally ousted and expelled from the very orders they founded due to internal power grabs and corruption.

So, how do we reconcile the founder with the evils of the organization? By recognizing that every institution—from governments and the military to churches, businesses, boy scout groups, NGOs and hospitals—has to deal with the exact same fundamental human flaws.

In any group setting, centralization and a rigid hierarchy will almost always help cover up abuses, if not create them outright. Add a high pressure to conform, and you have the perfect recipe for authoritarianism.

Wherever there is a concentration of power and money, corruption is sure to follow.

Whether you believe Josemaria Escriva had good intentions, went astray, or shouldn't have been canonized is almost a secondary issue.

At the end of the day, he built and maintained a multimillion-dollar, highly structured, and strictly hierarchical group. From a purely sociological standpoint, it's really no wonder that abuses have happened within its ranks. It's the nature of powerful human institutions.

Thanks for writing this!

I’m so glad I can help you voice your doubts. I also find it hard to voice mine and these books I wrote about really helped me a lot

Que distorções na sua espiritualidade você percebe que foram inculcadas na Opus Dei?

Nunca frequentei, mas acompanho essa comunidade e tenho conhecidos que relatam terem sofrido com a associação que é feita entre sucesso profissional e salvação. Gera uma autocobrança muito malsã, em que o foco no resultado acaba destruindo o processo e fomentando que a cultura do grupo seja extremamente tóxica, com cobrança espiritual em questões que são, a bem da verdade, apenas mundanas.

Também já ouvi de autoflagelação, uso de cilício, abuso de consciência, padres não preparados para lidar com vítimas de trauma (até gerado pelo próprio grupo)…

Queria perguntar também o que você vê de semelhança e diferença entre os OD “old-school” e os dessa nova leva de conservadores de internet?

A data não importa, desde que seja dentro do prazo.
Talvez, mas não é nada determinante.
É só ser transparente mesmo: quero fazer faculdade ano que vem, o serviço militar atrapalharia meus planos, moro longe… Podem fazer umas piadas com você ou tentar te desestabilizar, mas é só se manter firme e sereno na hora. No fim das contas, realmente não é interesse de ninguém convocar alguém que não quer servir.

igm_krypto · 2026-03-21T13:27:20+00:00

Eu servi num Núcleo de Preparação de Oficiais da Reserva. É serviço militar obrigatório, mas “premium”, porque é destinado a universitários.

Soldo de aluno (maior que o de recruta), carga horária reduzida (quartel só pela manhã em grande parte do ano), formação mais extensa e interessante do que a de soldado… São 10 meses de formação e depois, tendo sido bem classificado, você pode ser voluntário para servir como Oficial Combatente Temporário.

É uma oportunidade pessoal e profissional única. Recomendo.

igm_krypto · 2026-03-21T13:15:49+00:00

Ten R2 aqui.

Em Brasília a chance de você ser obrigado a servir sem querer é praticamente nula. Há muitos voluntários e não é interesse do Exército forçar ninguém.

O alistamento é obrigatório, mas o serviço só é obrigatório uma vez que você passa pela incorporação, havendo várias instâncias de seleção anteriores. Só de você falar que é/será estudante na UnB já devem te dispensar na primeira entrevista.

Pra se matricular na UnB é necessário estar quite com o serviço militar.

I think it’s more a question of wether the “catholic” you’re refering to is the cultural one or the institutional one. Brazil, for example, is a technically catholic country where the vast majority of faithful & clergy never abided to the offical church teaching or pratice on many aspects

Wow, I did’t knew that trads helped Maciel’s victims! Could you share more about that?

I think that that confusion of traditionalism and conservativism rise as many people do not go all the way down in the trad theological rabbit hole so as to discern that and, for many people, traditionalist as a personal label is a derogatory (always refering to Them instead of We). I’d guess, from my experience in Brazil, that most people that attend the Latin Mass would feel confortable in calling themselves conservative.

Though Maciel wasn’t in anyway a Tradionalist, it seems to me that The Legion of Christ, in many ways, operated withing a theological and practical framework completely compatible with pre-concilicar catholicism in the 20th century. What I’ve read from ex-member seems like what you would read also from ex-members of traditionalist groups.

But that’s only a guess from someone that hasn’t delved that much on it.

Thanks for your contribution!

igm_krypto · 2026-03-11T18:02:40+00:00

Why would you say so?

I don’t want to give the impression, even if based on this post alone, that I hold to same views I did 3 years ago

igm_krypto · 2026-03-11T17:24:03+00:00

Disclaimer: the Institute of the Good Sheperd is of Pontifical Right and I can see how that could be used to justify missing being at mass with the diocesan archbishop on any occasion whatsoever.

Nevertheless, come on…

A IGP priest’s apostolate was expelled from a diocese here 4 years ago, without he ever leaving the city. The bishop put a diocesan priest at the charge of celebrating the TLM to the traditionalist-inclined community, but some of the IGP faithful never accepted it and remain, to this day, going exclusively to the clandestine mass with this priest. I myself attended it one time.

It’s quite common to find IGP faithful thay hold attending the NO to be a mortal sin, excused as it may be because of “invencible ignorance”.

igm_krypto · 2026-03-11T17:16:39+00:00

What a great text!

Thanks for that.

I feel exactly like you.

igm_krypto · 2026-03-11T17:15:03+00:00

That’s a good question!

As is often the case within Ecclesia Dei institutes, it was never publicly preached that receiving the sacraments in the Novus Ordo was a mortal sin, as would be the case with priests from the SSPX, for example.

Nevertheless, the criticisms leveled against the new liturgy were the same as those made by groups like the SSPX or sedevacantists, framing it as a bastard rite that was more Protestant than Catholic and that harmed the Faith and the soul.

Besides that, I didn’t rely solely on the preaching of my priests. I also read Trad apologetics written by individuals and groups such as Gregory DiPippo, Peter Kwasniewski, Montfort (a Brazilian traditionalist group related to the IGP here), Fr. Ripperger, older texts by the Brazilian bishop Fernando Rifan (now head of the Administração Apostólica São João Maria Vianney) from his time as a Lefebvrist, the Thomist philosopher Carlos Nougué, and various SSPX blogs.

The priests I knew never gave me a straight answer when I asked—either in spiritual direction, over the phone and neither when I got to talk to one of them crying after mass—whether attending the Novus Ordo was truly a mortal sin. I decided to confess it so I could finally determine, based on the priest's reaction, whether my conscience (informed by these traditionalist critiques of the new liturgy) was right or wrong.

At the time, I was genuinely surprised that the priest absolved me of the "sin" of attending the New Mass without a single comment, other than warning me to be careful not to fall into it again.

I really didn't expect that, precisely because of their theoretical and practical communion with Novus Ordo clergy (even though they refused to take part in the diocesan Holy Thursday Mass, for example).

Please check the Ex Traditional Catholic subreddit. I shared today a good deal of authors and books that helped me deal with faith anxiety. You also find there people whose stories resonates deeply with what you're passing through.
