"Your claim of Heresy is unfounded and is based on nothing but a SSPX pamphlet."

What pamphlet might that be, pray tell? Was Assisi I and II an example of syncretism or indifferentism? Do I need a pamphlet to tell me what to think about something so obviously unprecedented and scandalous? Should Catholic popes be praying with animists and bragging about it in their diaries? Should a Catholic Pontiff, at a papal audience, be giving Communion to a woman who is a prominent activist for abortion? Or kiss the ring of the Archbishop of Canterbury who lacks any standing as a real cleric? Do I need pamphlets to tell me how to think about these actions? It seems to me if anyone's not doing his own thinking, it's yourself. Look at the photos of Hindu priests using our altars at Fatima to pray to their false gods. Who allows this desecration? Do you need somebody in Rome to tell you this is not as it should be? If so, you've got a long wait coming.

Attacking the Pope by claiming he is separated from the Catholic faith is ridiculous. Popes can screw up, that isn't any sort of revelation.

I never claimed the SSPX was sedavacanist, they are in schism. That is the Popes judgment to make, and he indeed made it. Can it be twisted into something else?

Some are abuses, some are not. The Pope does understand that nothing comes from kissing a ring, and perhaps it can heal a rift in the Church, I personally want the Anglican to return as I want the SSPX to return.

I don't have any information on the other charges, except for SSPX echoes (secondary sources). Please ping mail me a primary source.

You might add the picture of JPII kissing the Koran. Can you imagine what the response from the folks on this site would be if the pope had kissed Archbishop Lefebvre's ring?
