Any "traditionalist" group that looks to have the TLM live side by side with the NO, or have communion with heretical bishops should be looked at as an enemy of the Church.
So it is really bad that I've been going to the Latin Mass through the Diocese? I haven't taken communion yet, but I just want to learn and be more comfortable with the Tridentine mass. As strange as it sounds, I have very high anxiety about it.
CMRI is really just too far to drive to regularly, and I haven't researched the beliefs enough yet and I feel very confused by the little bit I have learned.
Not too long ago I discovered there is an SSPX chapel that isn't as far, but I am not sure this one would be a good fit for me, and it is still quite the drive when you are broke and trying not to use too much gas. Not to mention that I need some work done on my car but don't have the money yet, so in the meantime I really prefer not to leave town in case it dies on me.
I will feel terrible not going to mass at all.
PW-
My post was directed at those groups who seek to have Tradition coincide with Modernism. It was not a judgement of those who attend their masses for any number of reasons. Circuмstances oftentimes dictate what we have to do.
Your faith is young and in need of nurturing. I would not encourage you to not go to Mass if there is a valid mass available. If you are growing in your faith at the Diocesan mass, then go there. I have sometimes had to do the same thing out of necessity. I now assist exclusively at the SSPX, but not everyone is in as fortunate a situation.
I understand the CMRI are sede's, which wouldn't keep me from going there if that was my only viable option. I, personally, am not a sede. I do not judge those who have reached that conclusion in our confusing time, however.
If circuмstances do not allow us to get to an SSPX chapel or some other "unofficial" group, I would recommend you going to the Diocesan mass if your faith is being nurtured there. I have been to many different diocesan locations where the priests are very orthodox and doing the best they can in their situation. I have reservations about diocesan masses for a lot of the same reasons that other trads do; but I just can't recommend staying home if there is a valid mass around.
Ultimately we will be judged by how much we have been conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. We will not be sent to hell because we didn't fully grasp certain theological nuances or that we didn't come to the correct conclusion regarding the occupant of Peter's Throne.
Go to mass, say your Rosary, read the Fathers, Doctors and saints of the Church and be like Christ.
