OK, wow, I guess this in not an April Fool’s joke. Of course all of this good stuff that is now happening is due almost exclusively to P.E. Benedict. The preparation was going on before he was elected Pope, and the path is now laid and 98% to the door but for Fellay’s own refusal to step over the threshold.

Fellay is wrong if he really believes Benedict opened the door for some sentimental reasons of attachment to the ‘old’ liturgy. For Pete’s sake (pun intended?!), Benedict was one of those who ushered in the changes. Benedict has a vast vision Fellay will never comprehend in his wildest dreams. One is a good man and one is a great man. Benedict’s goal is unity, not restoration per se.

Actually, a brilliant move by the Marxist strategist.

Bergoglio knows that his REAL enemies are those that do think more like Archbishop Lefevre who left room for the possibility of Sedevacantism (the only healthy albeit unpopular way to interpret the anti-pope, “Francis”).

Because Bergoglio has found a man, Bishop Bernard Fellay, who claims to be a follower of Lefevre but unlike Lefevre denies the possibility of post-VII (anti-) popes not having papal authority, Bergoglio is seizing the opportunity, just as a crime syndicate would if they could plant or discover a weak police captain in the city law enforcement community, who would legitimize and protect the syndicates in their works of crime.

As the relationship deepens, “Francis” will have a sharp, strong, tool with which, he thinks, to demolish the sedevacantists principally due to the fact that SSPX uses Latin and numerous traditional practices.

Whenever, however, sedevacantism finally takes hold, “Francis” will be judged with the other VII anti-popes to be a criminal anti-pope, and the Church will be glorified on the earth as it increases its visibility and activity in winning souls to Christ through Mary as it had for centuries prior to VII.
