![]() ![]() ![]() And here is Pope Francis dangling that carrot in front of them. ![]() The people that are starved for what they had prior to the 1960's and what the SSPX has is the look and feel of all that our Novus Ordo Mass has lost in the decades since Vatican II. Like the devil himself, this pope ( knowingly or unknowingly) is tempting people. Right now, many folks won't walk into an SSPX parish because of the division, but with Pope Francis' 'Year of Mercy' folks now see a 'green light' from the pope himself for going to the SSPX and checking them out. Give people who are yearning for more reverent and holy Mass's a year of going to the SSPX for one Sacrament and we will see people leaving the Holy Catholic Church for the SSPX for all their Sacraments (licit or illicit). My response is, Church Militant sees the writing on the wall as I do. ![]() In the comments area of today's Vortex, some people are questioning why Church Militant would be spending an entire week devoted to discussing the SSPX and whether or not they are in schism ( Church Militant says they are, The Remnant says they aren't). Michael Voris and the folks over at Church Militant are going all out this week with numerous Vortex episodes on the SSPX and a new FBI (Faith Based Investigations) show all about the SSPX. At midnight are they invalid and illicit? How will we know? Will the pope make some proclamation so we are all on the same page and know what is happening? The folks over at The Remnant seem to be feeling the ' jubilee' over the SSPX having a licit and valid Sacrament of Confession for the Year of Mercy, although they (like others) are confused by just what this means at the end of the Year of Mercy. Even now, before the Year of Mercy has begun, the ripple effect is being felt. When you're the pope, especially a media darling like Pope Francis is, every word, action or inaction will have an enormous ripple effect in the world. The problem with a pope who 'flies by the seat of his pants' as the expression goes, is that tremendous damage comes from not looking ahead and thinking through each and every decision. Pope or not, he is human and this is a human trait. #BISHOP MORLINO SSPX FULL#Of course, to be honest, almost everything this Holy Father does has me concerned.įrom the Pope's "off the cuff" comments and now infamous interviews, I have to wonder if this pope is one of those people who just goes full steam ahead and does/says things without thinking them through. While I too hope and pray for such a unity, I am leery about what Pope Francis has done. Most people seem to see this as a step in the right direction in the hopes of the SSPX soon being fully in communion with the Church (that is to say with licit Sacraments). The response to this has been ( from what I gather) good. As everyone by now knows, this month Pope Francis announced his "Year of Mercy" which will include allowing Catholics to go to the SSPX for the Sacrament of Confession. ![]()
