You get the analogy all wrong. St. Francis never opposed Tradition. He opposed the corruption at the top that perverted Tradition. What's going on now is a destruction of Catholic Tradition itself. A new religion is being imposed--again from the top. SSPX is leading the resistance by calling Catholics back to Tradition.

And so, you'd like me to see Lefebvre/SSPX as a "modern day" movement analogous with St. Francis?
Ludicrous! doesn't even begin to describe my assessment of that assertion.
Pax et bonum! nonetheless.
