I left the Indult Mass because it was captive to a false religion which was putting the squeeze on FSSP and the priests of my parish were folding under pressure. I have no qualms of any kind, but am convinced more than ever the SSPX has been the conservator of the Church's tradition--Catholicism's true memory of itself--and hence is blessed by the Holy Spirit and prospers despite adversity.

I am also convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that the SSPX is not in schism. I believe Rome realizes this as well and has therefore made an effort to regularize relations. I also think it does so out of fear that eventually Catholics will realize the oddity of the Vatican's own fierce opposition to those who affirm nothing other than what the Church has always affirmed and practiced for two thousand years.

But since you keep using the word, you obviously don't have the foggiest idea of what you're talking about. I don't think there has ever been a single post mentioning me that has not included the term "schism" or "schismatic". So tell me, if I am a schismatic for attending Mass at an SSPX chapel, what does that make the Pope who prays with witchdoctors? --Or doesn't the First Commandment apply to the Pope?

Dear ultima,

Most or all of this has been the fodder of many threads. You are wrong, and it has been established quite clearly that you are wrong. If you wish to re-argue all of these things with yourself again, you may refer to the threads bookmarked on my profile page.

It only feeds your ego to engage you over and over and re-argue what has been argued over and over before. Since you think that your interpretation of Sacred Tradition is superior to that of the Holy Father, it's clear that your ego really needs to go on a diet a lot more than it needs another good feeding.

For those who are in doubt that ultima's assertions are false, please refer to the threads bookmarked on my profile page. They are a start to see the falsity of ultima's new religion, which deceives by making use of many of the trappings of the True Religion.

I will continue to pray for you.
