The “Catholic Caucus” label will be removed because the article discusses sedevacantists who are not members of the caucus.
Their excommunication was lifted by Pope Benedict XVI. The Catholic Church stil considers them as members, albeit their personal positions.
This thread remains a CATHOLIC CAUCUS.
Thank you for that.
I don’t think so. The previous two pope have said the SSPX was an internal Church matter and that they were part of the Church. Secondly, whatever else it might be, Bishop Fellay is not taking a sedevacantist position. He does not say any pope is invalid. So please put back the, “Catholic Caucus” label.
From the perspective “Who brings most disruption to Catholic discussion?” — SSPX is the answer. I hardly ever saw an Orthodox disrupt a Catholic discussion though.
From the technical and legal perspective, and in truth, the SSPX is indisputably Catholic. They are certainly not sedevacantist.
As an opinion, I would prefer including both SSPX and the Orthodox in Catholic caucus threads; we can deal with an occasional disruptive poster internally. Or in an extreme case, refer such a poster to you and ask that he, not because he is SSPX or Orthodox, but because of his personality, be excluded.
