Well I attend the Masses offered by the FSSP, but that apparently won’t stop the RM from believing false accusations by others.

Rashputin, I'm sorry that your thread is being trashed by this sidebar but evidently the Religion Forum guidelines on what is or is not "Catholic" for a "Catholic Caucus" needs to be revisited.

The issue is whether FSSP (ebb tide claiming to be a member) is so closely associated with SSPX that it ought to be excluded also - or whether it ought to be included in the general "Catholic" category because FSSP is in communion with the Pope.

Evidently the SSPX view of the FSSP/communion with the Pope is available here.

The current guideline reads:

The “Catholic Caucus” designation excludes Sedevacantists, Orthodox, SSPX and Inactive Catholics. Any of the excluded groups may be included on a particular thread by extending the label, e.g. “Catholic/Orthodox Caucus” or “Cath/SV/SSPX Caucus”

Additionally, the label “All Catholic Caucus” may be used to include any Freeper who self identifies as a Catholic regardless of his attitude about the Pope, Papal Infallibility, Vatican II or Schisms or Sects.

The SSPX will be included by default in a Catholic Caucus when (and if) Bishop Fellay accepts the olive branch offered.

I'm pinging some others who post Catholic Caucuses or have been around for a long time.

My objective is to avoid disruption on caucus threads.

What are your opinions?
