"Sheila Dabu is a Toronto freelance writer with a special interest in Catholicism."

She could do to take some serious study of her subject before spouting forth, however!

"Post-Vatican II theology says the celebrating community offers the sacrifice to God with the priest."

This is sheer bunk - no official teaching of the Church since Vatican II has claimed this.

"In 2003, bans on three of the four bishops illicitly consecrated by Lefebvre were lifted."

This is news to me - has anyone else heard anything to this effect or is she just spouting more nonsense?

I assume by "ban" she means excommunication. (Not that I am trying to start up another "are they/aren't they" debate - simply querying whether the Vatican has officially changed its stance).

Where is she getting her numbers? Did she do a head count? One of these days I'd like to see an article by traditionalists about traditionalists. Otherwise it's an outsider looking in with a weak grasp of the situation.

bumpus ad summum
