SSPX

I must admit that, apart form their love of the Tridentine Mass, I really don't know much about the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX). Some time ago I encountered a person who got mixed up with the SSPX. I was shocked by the anti-semitic and racial filth he spouted, but I didn't know that, when it comes to this most prominent of Traditionalist groups, such hatred is par for the course.

Several days ago, on the website for the Southern Poverty Law Center I read an expose of the SSPX, that included the following delightful piece of information:
Also in 1989, one of Lefebvre's "bishops," Englishman Richard Williamson, gave a speech to a Canadian church in which he decried the alleged persecution of Holocaust denier and neo-Nazi Ernst Zundel by the Canadian government. Williams, then rector of SSPX's main North American seminary in Winona, Minn., told his audience: "There was not one Jew killed in the gas chambers. It was all lies, lies, lies." [Emphasis mine.] The Canadian government reacted by banning all SSPX publications.

Surely just what our Lord had in mind when he told us to "love one another as I have loved you!"

I had not heard that aspect of their beliefs/activities.

In that case, why is Rome so "friendly?" Probably because "schism" is the really big fear in the Vatican.

I think Benedict XVI suffers from dementia. I think he's always been gay, and has surpressed that for decades, obviously, but it's coming out now in all these flamboyant papal costumes. What would Jesus say to all this papal dress-up?

Fr. Charles Ledderer, The Dakotas, USA you are impersonating a Catholic priest. Your identity is fictitious. There are people on here that are believing you. I am asking you not to trick people anymore.

The One HOly Catholic Church is in eclipse since 1958 and there are few priests / bishops with real Jurisdiction from a true Pope. www.JMJsite.com. Read Satis Cognitum of Pope Leo 13 too. Pray for the consecration of Russia this will be done but too too late. It is our only Hope for the True Catholic restoration where power comes from above.. in Church, family and society and Catholic Monarchy will be restored.
