There are traditionalists who aren’t SSPX. This is the problem. SSPX folks tend to see it as “we are the traditionalists” and everyone who wasn’t them wasn’t a traditionalist. This is just simply not so.
SSPX crossed the rubicon when they decided that obedience to the Pope, the present Pope, was unnecessary for them. Had they retained their orthodoxy they would be far stronger today. Insofar as they deviated from orthodoxy, they separated themselves from the faith.
As stated, there is a great deal of misinformation regarding the SSPX. Thank you for your contribution.
“Had they retained their orthodoxy they would be far stronger today. Insofar as they deviated from orthodoxy, they separated themselves from the faith.”
Unfortunately, by retaining their orthodoxy and attachment to the Faith, they were persecuted by modernist Popes.
