You hit the nail on the head. Selective justice is no justice at all. Two standards--one for orthodoxy and one for heterodoxy. It rankles! ( this does not excuse Fr Pavone but equal enforcement from the hierarchy would help validate their judgements.)
I believe there will be a time coming very soon when priests will need to be disobedient. It will be the only way to teach their parishes the truths of the faith.
As I understand it, a refusal to teach falsehood is not disobedience. In that case, one is only disobeying the devil.
