While reading through the Prot Springmeier's above named book( which chapter on the Catholic Church is actually quite fair) I encountered the following two paragraphs. Would anyone like to comment?
" In 1902 French Minister Combes, a former Catholic seminarian and Mason, appointed under the concordat, Fr La croix bishop of Tarantaise. It was ST Pius who summoned bp Lacroix to Rome and forced him to resign. Lacroix's will after his death confirmed he was a Mason.
"Pius X ruled all ordinations conferred by the Mason bp to be repeated with conditions. The dissedent Lefevbrites(sp?) trace back there ordinations to that Mason 'bishop'. "
