Sitetest only sounds that way to you because sitetest follows both the pope and God Almighty unlike the folks in SSPX who reject the pope and in doing so, also defy God Almighty. [Will UR reconsider and return? Never mind.]

You're another one who can't make distinctions. I have never rejected the Pope. Got it--or is it too much for you? I have criticized the Pope, but I have never rejected him or his papacy. In fact, it is Sitetest who rejects the Catholic faith by rejecting its Tradition. As for yourself, at best you seem confused. I don't doubt why you can't make up your mind. On the one hand you worship the pope since the papacy is the only Catholic entity left remaining in the modernist debacle; on the other, you see that the corruption is systemic and is tolerated by Rome. So you waffle.

Dear BlackElk,

Thank you for your defense. But ultima has a point, here:

"Your patronizing tone is incredible for somebody so limited. You talk as if you were the Pope and God-Almighty at the same time."

I AM incredibly limited.

Recognizing my limits, I recognize that I am unable to judge the Supreme Pontiff of the Holy Catholic Church, especially as he teaches, either with ordinary or extraordinary magisterial authority.

I recognize that I have no possible source of authority to actively disobey, and rebel against the Supreme Pontiff.

I recognize that it is the absolute Will of Jesus Christ that I submit fully and completely to the legitimate authority of the Supreme Pontiff, His Vicar on earth.

Ultima seems to be unable to see that he has similar limitations, and thus, seems to feel that he is not constrained as I am, as described above.
