  • If a SSPX priest opted to go Resistance and decided to bring a civil suit against Bishop Fellay, would he be excommunicated from the Catholic Church?
    Short answer, no. Longer answer, the sspx is still not canonically regular.  And, I am under the impression that this statute is not in the new canon law, and only in the old.  So, no excommunication for a lawsuit.

  • It is interesting(but not surprising) how the so called "sede doubtist" ladislaus sides with the sede extremists/dogmatic vacantists against the sspv.  The bottom line in my book is that the sspv cspv have a legitimate argument.  Time will tell whether it is valid or not.  I however prefer to enjoy it as a desert, rather than a main course.  But, that is the difference between me and them.  They have doubts about the papacy, I do not.  I would avoid the cmri on the grounds of their invalidating all orders but their own.  I would avoid them for their dogmatic vacantism.

  • What's ironic is that EVERY SINGLE ARGUMENT that the SSPV has used against the validity of the Thuc line applies EVEN MORE to the Mendez consecration of +Kelly.
    Garbage.  You do not know their arguments.

  • Croix - I am not going to scan over all canon law in order to find this.  However, just trust me on this one.  The nine have not been excommunicated by this.  They have however been compromised by this, and thoroughly humiliated by +Williamson for this.

  • It is interesting(but not surprising) how the so called "sede doubtist" ladislaus sides with the sede extremists/dogmatic vacantists against the sspv.  The bottom line in my book is that the sspv cspv have a legitimate argument.  Time will tell whether it is valid or not.  I however prefer to enjoy it as a desert, rather than a main course.  But, that is the difference between me and them.  They have doubts about the papacy, I do not.  I would avoid the cmri on the grounds of their invalidating all orders but their own.  I would avoid them for their dogmatic vacantism.  

    This particular point of discussion has absolutely nothing to do with their theological position on the crisis.  We're talking about questions of sacramental validity and about the licitness of taking a bishop to court.  Doesn't matter if you're R&R, sedevacantist, or "sededoubtist".

    Why should someone just "trust" you?  If the old Code of Canon Law remains in force, as the Nine claim, then I don't see how they are NOT excommunicated.

    Ridiculous.  I personally knew several members of the Nine, and in particular then-Father Sanborn, when all this was shaking out.

    You do know, right, that not all the Thuc bishops have ties to the CMRI?

    It's not the CMRI that question the validity of all orders but their own, but rather the SSPV.

    Do you know that they claimed for a long time that +Williamson and +Dolan were not validly ordained to the priesthood because at their ordination +Lefebvre only laid one hand on their heads (instead of both hands as indicated in the rubrics)?  Bishop Kelly was conditionally confirming people who had been confirmed by Bishop Williamson as a result.  I actually did some research on this question personally for Father Cekada.  I found that the Eastern Rite always used one hand for the ordination of priests and that the Rituale Romanum (of the Latin Church) also prescribed one hand for a couple centuries ... before switching back to both hands.  Expressions around the laying on of hands (plural) had to do with the fact that other bishops and even priests present at one point laid their hands on the head of the ordinand.

    Oh, I most certainly do.  I worked closely with Father Jenkins for a number of years (helped him in studio when they were making the "What Catholics Believe" TV program).  And also spent a year with then-Father Sanborn.  I heard all these arguments directly from the mouths of Fathers Jenkins, Sanborn, and Cekada.  So, apart from the SSPV themselves, I know these arguments as well as anyone.

    It most certainly does matter to the rabid anti-sedevacantists.....they are completely blinded by it.

    I posted the law.  It talks about getting permission from the pope or the ordinary.  Exactly how would that work when the bishop in question (ABL) didn't even obey his pope and didn't report to his Ordinary?

    OOps...I was supposed to quote this post of yours:

    Why should someone just "trust" you?  If the old Code of Canon Law remains in force, as the Nine claim, then I don't see how they are NOT excommunicated.

    If the Old Code of Canon Law remains in force, then it seems he would be excommunicated. I don't see how the new "Code of Canon Law 1983" (and is there a subsequent one?) can be valid since it's written by heretics with no true interest in preserving Catholic justice and order, therefore, it can't truly be in effect. But that's only my opinion. Only God knows for certain. 

    It seems that the material-only bishops & pope, who are not formal bishops & pope, can't truly impose a new Code of Canon Law, and the faithful are no obliged to follow it, just as we are not obliged to follow their obvious errors on matters of the Faith and morality in this modern/post-modern time.
