In-house Catholic positions against adherents of Marcel LeFebvre’s SSPX schism who CLAIM to be Catholics. It is my way of saying that in the good old days we would have burned them at the stake (after an extensive, ummm, inquiry, of course)/ There are a group of folks here who are in agreement as to putting SSPX in the outer darkness with varying degrees of militance as to methods to be employed. Some of us publicly reference ourselves as the Tomas de Torquemada Gentlemen’s Club (which also has a Ladies’ Auxiliary) after the saintly Fra Tomas Torquemada, O.P, Grand Inquisitor from the age of Ferdinand and Isabella. Some are more discreet. As Monty Python observed: “No one expects the Spanish Inquisition.”
