WHICH IS THE GREATEST THREAT TO THE UNITY OF THE CHURCH, SO DESIRED BY POPE LEO, THE SSPX OR THE GERMAN SYNODAL WAY? I WILL GIVE YOU A CLUE, IT ISN’T THE SSPX!



The Pillar has a good news article on the German Heretical/schismatic way, which is not just one religious institute, like the FSSPX, going rogue, but about entire national Church going heretical and schismatic and wanting to spread this contagious heretical/schismatic virus into a worldwide Catholic pandemic. 

The SSPX are chicken feed compared to the German Heretical/Schismatic Way. I can’t think of anything heretical in the SSPX but certainly there are canonical and disciplinary issues as well as disrespect for the Supreme Pontiff as certain non-doctrinal pastoral aspects of Vatican II to include the post-Vatican II Bugnini Fabricated Mass. 

Here is a money byte from the Coppen/Pillar news story linked in the title below:

German media reported that there was “widespread outrage” at the Jan. 30 session of the sixth assembly after the presentation of a study of the implementation of synodal way resolutions in dioceses. The text was heavily criticized because it presented the results for all 27 dioceses without singling out any by name.

At the Jan. 31 session, participants debated a resolution calling on the synodal conference “to regularly monitor the implementation of the decisions of the synodal way.”

According to a live report on the debate by Kirche und Leben, a Catholic news site based in the Münster diocese, Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich and Freising strongly objected. 

The site quoted him as saying: “I foresee significant difficulties. I do not want a higher authority that constantly monitors me as a bishop. This is precisely what Rome has criticized. It is not desirable.”

“I caution against pursuing this path. It is evident that we are discussing decisions in principle. However, I am firmly opposed to this proposal.”

Marx’s intervention was notable, because he was one of the synodal way’s architects, presiding over the initiative’s launch in 2019, when he was chairman of the German bishops’ conference.

Synodal way meeting ends with clash over monitoring dioceses

The proposal would have the synodal conference monitor how the decisions of the synodal way are implemented in dioceses.
