MORE FSSPX CHESS PLAYING…

FSSPX JUBILEE PILGRIMAGE TO ROME, 2025: Please note their youthfulness :

 

Press title for full Pillar article:

Vatican doctrine chief to hold talks with SSPX leader

Cardinal Fernández told The Pillar he hoped to “find a fruitful path of dialogue”

Money byte:

Cardinal Fernández told The Pillar Feb. 4 that the letter Pagliarani referred to was sent by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith.

The DDF prefect said the letter “merely responded negatively to the possibility of proceeding now with new episcopal ordinations.”

“We have been exchanging letters in recent times. Next week I will meet with Fr. Pagliarani in the DDF to try and find a fruitful path of dialogue,” Fernández explained.

Several sources told The Pillar that past conversations also involved two other SSPX bishops, Bishop Bernard Fellay and Bishop Alfonso de Galarreta, and on the Vatican side, Cardinal Kurt Koch, prefect of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, and Archbishop Guido Pozzo, the former secretary of the now-defunct Pontifical Commission Ecclesia Dei.

Fernández told The Pillar, however, that the upcoming meeting would be limited to him and Pagliarani.

From The Pillar aricle:

"But many bishops have continued to discourage Catholics from attending SSPX chapels because of their irregular canonical status.

"In 1996, one bishop declared that Catholics who join SSPX chapels can be subject to excommunication, which remains particular law in the Diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska."

=======

I recall when Bishop Bruskewitz issued the above declaration. It is interesting that powerful opposition over the years to the SSPX has existed among "conservative" Churchmen.

My "Burke is having a cow over this I am sure...Müller is having a cow over this I am sure...The SSPX is having a cow over this I am sure...having to deal with "Modernist" Fernández..."

...post is poking a bit of fun at the type of superficial comment that a right-wing extremist would offer.

I would name such a character...oh, I don't know...

I think you can follow the money trail as the SSPX gets their donation not the bishop or his parishes.
