Let’s not make this personal.

Nothing "personal" here, except the sedevacantist presumption to private, "personal" judgment, i.e. their unilateral, sweeping excommunication and contemptuous mockery of those who remain in the Church. Not a winning formula for recruitment.

Really now? Could have fooled me. You highlighted "I" in my post and then proceeded to tell me that "it's not about me" (albeit via another man's sermon). I have not mocked anyone who call themselves Catholic here. In fact, I try very hard to give all Catholics the benefit of the doubt given the mess we are all in these days. I haven't told anyone here they are not Catholic.

On the contrary, a number of non-sedes have used their private judgment to judge that I and other sedevacantists are not Catholic and are out of the Church. However, in my travels in a number of trad forums, I know that most non-sedes recognize that they could be wrong and do not judge sedes in this way.

I happen to think that most of the Catholic posters here (and other forums) are of good will even if I think they are wrong in their position.
