Dear smevin,

Messrs. Fellay and Williamson are validly-consecrated bishops, but not of the Catholic Church.

Yes, indeed, they may consecrate other non-Catholic bishops. Just as can the Orthodox bishops of the Orthodox Churches.

And Pope John Paul II doesn't consider these fellows to be in full communion with the Church he heads, either.

However, the Orthodox bishops have an advantage over the SSPX bishops in that the Orthodox bishops are clear-headed enough to recognize that they are not in communion with the Church headed by Pope John Paul II.
