True or false?

Sedevacantism is leaving the Church because one does not like the Pope.

Xavier, that you?  

Xavier, that you?  

Nah even XS wouldn't give such a lame definition.

Well, R&R is only married on paper but separated ... although the SSPX is moving closer to the scenario that YOU describe.

Martin Luther is more like divorce + remarriage.

I will be honest this is kind of why the SSPX Resistance position doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me as I currently understand it (and it is definitely possible that I don't understand it.)  I understand the EO position that a Pope simply isn't necessary (to be clear, I'm not saying its an *acceptable* position just that I get the internal logic.) I  get the NO/Indult position that there isn't a crisis or at least that the crisis comes down to misinterpretations and whatnot.  I get the so called "New SSPX" position of saying we're in a screwball situation so we keep as much unity with the Pope as we can without compromising (at least theoretically.)  And I get the Sede view that we don't have a Pope right now, and we need one, though I think David Bawden was right on the next step of "OK well then let's elect one" though I think the way he did it was kind of ridiculous (really the Sede bishops needed to do this.)  But I really don't get what I see from a lot of the Resistance which seems more like "OK, he's a Pope, but that means basically nothing?"  I know some people might say that's a strawman, and its possible my understanding is inadequate, but that's how this looks to me ATM

Ah, I see the source of confusion.  With "divorce" I had in mind like a civil divorce, where you recognize that you're still married but are separated.

There's truth to that, so I guess current SSPX might be something like "still have irreconcilable differences but actively trying to find a way to reconcile"

Yes, perfect.

Which, to be honest, is kind of the position that makes most sense to me, but leaving that aside, its definitely fundamentally different than that of FSSP.  

What's the difference between a sedevacantist and a Jєω? A Jєω can be saved by baptism of desire.

LOL yeah I think once you get to the point where you're literally saying people who disagree with you on any aspect of the crisis are in a worse salvific position than an out and out non Christian you've crossed into theological insanity.

And yeah, this does happen, and its ridiculous, and I criticize it whenever I see it from any side or faction.

The Dimonds, and the bloggers over at Where Peter Is, both have a better shot at heaven than a Jєω.
