The SSPX is OUTSIDE the Roman Catholic Church because it is NOT in union with the Pope.

Ah, my favorite subject, the Pope. You needn't use upper case for emphasis, I can hear you shouting. We pray for him every Sunday, on First Fridays, First Saturdays, after Benediction, during Holy Hours, during all night adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, on Holy Days of Obligation - all the time. Look around you, sinkspur, and see the devastation that has occurred in the Church during his Pontificate.

But we will never agree on any of this. Enough said.

So do the liberals. You mean it the same way they do. How does this distinguish you from them?

I'm sure you long for the days of the old Soviet Union and the cold war.

[Notwithstanding]

In my novus ordo parish we pray for him every Sunday, on First Fridays, First Saturdays, after Benediction, during Holy Hours, during perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, on Holy Days of Obligation and during the rosary.

So what of it? We love the guy more than you could know and are so grateful to have him at the helm of Peter's bark. Pope John Paul the Great, he is.
