LMAO You have no clue. Buh, bye
LOL!! Like what? Your number is miniscule.
Those who follow the dead archbishop and deny the Pope (sedes) are schismatic integrists, and you deserve to be laughed at.
The Pope has welcomed you back, but you insist on a universal indult. He's offered an apostolic administration, but you don't want that.
No, you want to infiltrate the Novus Ordo through a universal indult to try to suppress the Novus Ordo.
Why not take the administration, as the FSSP did?
I'm convinced the SSPX doesn't want a reunion. It wants its own church.
You may get the opportunity to experience that with the next Pope.
You could put those flyers on every car in our parish's lot, at every Mass, and you wouldn't get a single favorable response.
In the nineteenth century some Catholics started arguing that many of the ideas inspiring the French Revolution could be reconciled with Catholic thought as they were eventually Christian in origin. These men, who came to be called ‘Liberal Catholics’ had to endure hearing many rude things said about them by other Catholics (like the Pope, for instance). They did not like this and, after much thought, came up with a rather clever wheeze: they thought of a new word ‘integrist’. Meant of course as a term of abuse with which to denigrate their opponents (i.e. orthodox logical Catholics), and thereby created, with one masterful stroke of the pen, a climate of opinion in which they - the Liberals - would appear to be mainstream Catholics and their opponents a mere extremist sect within the Church.
Integrist doesn't apply to you, anyway, since you attend an Indult. It only applies to the schismatics.
You will notice a tactic of the integrists in the last few posts: Columba (a two-day newbie) comes on a dead thread and tries to stir the pot. This kind of thing has been specifically forbidden by the Religion Moderator.
But, she apparently has to establish her bona fides by fomenting dissension, even on Christmas Eve.
It is typical.
Thanks for the mini-history lesson, that was interesting. I've always seen the word integrist used as an insult here on the Forum, and wasn't familiar with the term at all before, but it always seemed to fall real short of its mark because of the root it shares with integrity, integral, etc.
Integrism was coined during the Pontificate of Pius X.
Fellay would rather be a big fish in a small pond.
Just trying to be nice Columba. It's Christmas Eve.
Reviving dead threads in order to post flame bait will make your stay here very short.
