The funny thing is, no one really knows for sure, its all rash judgements and self righteous Im better than you talk. Fact is, we dont really know, but we are all so egar to judge them. Why? Are they not true and pius in themselves? Why do we waste time condemning and tryin to convert catholics who already are catholic? Not to mention several time the church has deviated itself. Lets remember that the church is infallible in certain situations. Im not gonna believe the Pope that the Bears are gonna take the superbowl this year. Sorry. Fact is, you cant blindly follow everything you hear, what if the pope said that well women can be priests now? Would we stifly follow Rome as we must be obediant or are we truly obediant to Christ, HIS chuch, the doctrine, dogma, and morals. That which is infallible. So before we attack and make viscious judgements of others, lets look at ourselves and maybe we can learn someting through a true and thorough examination of conscience. Just some thoughts.
 
First of all, SSPX is not a schismatic group, so please stop from indicating that idea because the Pope himself do not think nor say such judgement against our CATHOLIC brethrens. For me SSPX is a good Catholic group because they maintain what is Catholic: traditions and teachings, and I don’t think we should judge them because they don’t follow Vatican II, there are reasons why we have divisions within the church just observe our local parishes in America and compare them to SSPX.

Why are we resurrecting 3 year old threads? Again, if you want us to stop “picking” on the SSPX, stop posting threads about it and certainly refrain from resurrecting 3 year old threads that have mercifully died.:mad:

Last year my wife and I were almost duped into joining a Traditional Latin Mass church Ran by the SSPX they are not in accord with Rome. This is a Schismatic group. My question is on the surface thay seem to be **better more loyal **Catholics than a lot of the Novus Ordo Catholics, They have great devotion to the Rosary, Brown Scapular and Eucharistic Adoration, these are powerful devotions. I don’t see how one can sit before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament for an hour on a regular basis and not be told or be unaware they belong to a Schismatic group, how is that possible?

What exactly is a “Novus Ordo Catholic?” And what do you mean by “better more loyal” exactly?

Members of the SSPX certainly are not “more loyal” – that much is clear, but the other terms confuse me.

I didn’t even notice this until you pointed it out. I sure wish they would lock these old threads after a certain time.

SSPX are not Novus Ordo Catholics.

The spirit of “Ecumenism” present in the church is highly desirable, but our energies are, in my opinion, best spent on wayward Catholics. I think that our first focus should be on our own, then look to other Christians, and ultimately non-Christians.

I am saddened when I read about the “SSPX”. I feel that we have lost some of our most pious and reverent Catholics to the sin of heresy. Let us work to bring them home.

i totally agree with you. Lord Jesus Christ let bring them home. is time for our brothers n sisters in SSPX to return home, to promote more about TLM mass for N.O catholics… sometime we should learn more from them…

This thread (which was dead for 2 weeks) has made it abundantly clear - SSPX masses are valid but illicit, and SSPX priests don’t have the authority to hear confessions (grant absolution) nor officiate marriages on behalf of the Church.

Since the Second Vatican Council has made it clear that the SSPX and others are not deprived of Salvation, what does it matter?
You must adhere to V2 do you not?

Any single document of the council, or any council, doesn’t contain the entire system of Church laws. The problem with the confessions and marriages by SSPX priests is due to issues of jurisdiction, not to the teachings of the SSPX. This has nothing to do with the issue of how various religions retain or don’t retain elements that aid salvation.

I thought I was in the twilight zone. Pope John Paul II was still alive?

Yes! Communion of Saints, remember? 😃

You pointed out one of the problems of old threads. Even in four years the context sure can change. :confused:
