I don't think sedevacantists are obsessed with the Papacy. If they were, then sedevacantist bishops from around the world would certainly gather together in an ecumenical council to elect a Pope (the job of electing a Pope falls on the College of Bishops if the College of Cardinals can't do it -- which, to the sedevacantist, would certainly be the case).

Why, pray tell do you believe thaat Sedes are obsessed with the POPE, when we do not believe we have one at the present time? Sede (chair) Vacante (vacant) The papacy (the legitimate one) is the center of ALL Catholic thinking.
We have washed our hands of the Vatican 11 church years ago, along with its antipope imposters. We are devoted to the papacy and all of the teachings of the past legitimate vicars.
The SSPX is the one trad org thats obsessed with the POPE.
They recognize Benedict as their pope. THEN........they say they dont have to obey him. They lament, wring their hands, and are always complaining of what he does and intends to do.
If Benedict is the Pope, then they must obey him. This is Catholic teaching.
If hes a heretical Pope, then they have to recognize him as such. The Chair is vacant of legitimate authority.

Recognize and Resist is the society's belief.

Actually, Bishop Fellay is going in the right direction for those who believe Benedict is the pope.

They are the RECOGNIZE faction, who now believes there is no longer any need to RESIST.
The Resist faction, led by the other three Bishops will finally wake up to the fact that resistence has to be carried to its fullest measure, by separation from the Vatican 11 church.

Thumbs up for the bolded comment.

Simple really. If the Society believes the Church has a pope, then they need to be in communion with him. They can retain their reservations on certain matters.

Those who refuse to obey their Superior General if he achieves regularization are simply sedes who are scared to admit it.

Please pray for Bishop Richard Williamson, a noble prelate whose wisdom and zeal for the truth have inspired many.
On October 23, 2012, the good Bishop was cast out of the SSPX, where he had labored tirelessly for 36 years.
His continued membership in the SSPX would have made a premature union with Rome more difficult.
