“to accept papal authority and not criticise the pope — were too vague to be accepted,

Not exactly the type of ‘support’ the Holy Father needs. Prayers continue for a solution to this situation.”

There are only four SSPX bishops.
Thank God that all of the other several thousand faithful bishops out there accept all that the pope directs, never criticize him, faithfully observe the rubrics of the Mass and require the priests under their supervision to do likewise.

This is a good Pope, but one wouldn't want to deny that through the ages there have been Popes to whom blind obedience might not always have pleased God, although that situation fortunately was the exception.
