I'll see your bump and raise you a dogmatic decree. One that commands the "Stay at home Catholicism" approach, when a person is unable to find clergy who are not heretical or schismatic.

Pope Eugene IV, Council of Basel, Session 20, ex cathedra: "...this holy synod decrees that henceforth nobody shall be obliged to abstain from communion with anyone in the administration and reception of sacraments or in any other sacred or profane matters, or to shun someone or to observe an ecclesiastical interdict, on the ground of any ecclesiastical sentence, censure, suspension or prohibition that has been promulgated in general by a person or by the law, unless the sentence, prohibition, suspension or censure was specifically or expressly promulgated or pronounced by a judge against a specified person, college, university, church or place, or if it is clear (obvious, evident, etc) that someone has incurred a sentence of excommunication (latae sententiae, ie; for public heresy or schism) with such notoriety that it cannot be concealed or in any way excused in law. For the synod wishes such persons to be avoided in accordance with canonical sanctions..." -emphasis mine, obvioulsy. :wink:

This may have already been discussed, but I have a sincere devil's advocate question.

The Society recommends not attending the NO. At best it would be a venial sin if attended without serious reason and even with a serious reason one can attend but not actively participate.

So if a Trad holds a Society position and is 5-6 hours from a Society or independent Society friendly priest who says the TLM, isn't that Catholic basically a home aloner for all intents and purposes? And if so do the same rules apply that you've been discussing?

Thanks.

What a shame for those who have declared that everyone is a heretic. No place to go to confession.

But maybe they never sin, it's just everyone else who must repent of their evil.
