May God grant graces to the Pope and guidance- strength to him as well as to the SSPX,who are trying to hold fast to the Faith,the Beautiful Old Latin Tridentine Mass ! Dominus Vobiscum

Bishop Fellay: We wanted to meet the Holy Father because we are Catholic and, as every Catholic, we are attached to Rome. We wanted to show, in requesting this audience quite simply that we are Catholic.

*LOL Yeah, right Fellay. And three assertions you are Catholic in two sentences :) Yep, that's Tradition, baby.

Well, at least those assertions witness to the truth Fellay is, finally, realizing that as more and more is known about the sspx the less and less their pompous pretensions are taken seriously.

Fellay, the head honcho of the "catholic" sspx, which teaches the normative Mass is evil; the Second Vatican Ecuemnical Council taught errors; and the Jews as a race are cursed by God ought be grateful the Pope extends him such courtesy. I'd horse-whip him

And, as it is well-known the sspx lies in its propaganda (witness it's scandalous use of Card. Lara and his, supposed, idea that ordaining Bishops ain't schismatic); why ought we think Fellay is telling us the truth? We well-know the founder of the SSPX, lefebvre, for years said he didn't sign the documents of Vatican Two when he did, we well-know he signed protocols of agreement with Rome then repudiated it; when, exactly can their word or memories of events be trusted as reliable?

The only thing missing from the meeting was Fellay exiting the meeting and chanting "Keep Tradition alive" like another pius pretender to authentic ministry, Jesse Jackson, chanting "Keep hope alive"

Poor Pope Benedict having to deal with these nuts. And it ain't even Lent...

I wish those who claim 100% obedience to Holy Father would have the shepherd's heart he has for the SSPX and act just as gently with as much patience as he, anticipating that some day not too long from now the situation could be made regular. How embarrassing it will be for those who heaped scorn to then be asked to then be their coworkers.

I don't think either Pope has ever been as nasty to them as some comments are on this board that seem to relish the separation that exists.

The Church could make very good use of the SSPX because it is a strong orthodox order that will be solicitous for the salvation of souls and the glory of God. Very low pervert and heresy rate here compared to those clerics "in union" with Rome. These ends are so important that the SSPX for its part should drop its "Novus Ordo is intrinsically evil" overstated generalization which while worthy of academic debating point should not be enough to cause them to delay regularization. Salvation of souls and God's glory are #1.

Signed again, Piers-the-Ploughman, Novus Ordo catholic

We must force the Roman authorities to admit

Excuse me?
