My call to the SSPX as Francis begins.

Posted on 14 March 2013 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

TweetTweetGentlemen, I now repeat, on the first full day of the pontificate of Francis.

The entire SSPX should gather in St. Peter’s Square, crawl on hands and knees to the Apostolic Palace and beg the new Pope to allow them to kiss his foot, knee and hand and promise obedience.

Given the new pontificate, what a gesture that would be. And it would provide a HUGE does of credibility to those who desire to maintain continuity with tradition.

The self-proclaimed leaders of the defense of tradition should lead that way. Get out in front of everyone.

Let the SSPX help Francis be the Pope of Christian Unity.

I doubt he could be more obnoxiously sanctimonious if he tried to be.  It's tough to determine.

First of all, Mr. Zuhlsdorf is an apologist for a version the Vatican II religion dressed up with externals that appeal to feeling and sentiment. The SSPX has nothing to be sorry about towards the current occupants of Rome.

Not trying to be a nitpick here, but Christians are already one and unified. The SSPX, and all true Catholics for that matter, should pray and aid Bergoglio's conversion, and for all modernists as well.

 :applause:   for this post and PereJoseph's.  

...

 :roll-laugh1:

Mr. Z is certainly a true maniac, by any standards.    

:heretic:

I think the SSPX would be more than willing and most certainly possesses the requisite humility to kneel before the Pontiff if Catholicism was being fully restored.

If a pope of the caliber of Pope Leo XIII or Pope St. Pius X were to become pope tomorrow, I don't think this would be an issue.  

However, Fr. Z. is merely engaging in cheap hyperbole.

Quote from: Stubborn

I think he may have said those things while on his "Lenten Retreat" with new buddy Michael Voris..............as he is cruising  the Caribbean on a luxury liner. That's what they're doing for Lent - their "Lenten Retreat Cruise" this year - how traditional is that hey?

Yessir, there's nothing like a priest laboring on a week long Caribbean cruise for lent telling the rest of the world what the SSPX should be doing. I'm sorry but Fr. Z already speaks enough manure to fertilize Nebraska, I think he's trying to expand into Kansas.

Actually, if I'm told correctly Fr Z bailed on Voris.  Almost feel bad for him (Voris).  Hyping it up for months with Fr Z as your big ticket and then he cancels.  Perhaps Voris will take it as a sign from God?

Well either way, at least I have no doubts about MV thanks to him wanting to hook up with the traitor Fr Z, that all by itself says all anyone needs to know about MV.

My call to the SSPX as Francis begins [....], on the first full day of the pontificate of Francis.  The entire SSPX should gather in St. Peter’s Square, crawl on hands and knees to the Apostolic Palace and beg the new Pope to allow them to kiss his foot, knee and hand and promise obedience.  Given the new pontificate, what a gesture that would be.  And it would provide a HUGE does dose of credibility to those who desire to maintain continuity with tradition.

Quite the contrary: It would be abandonment of credibility, because he offers nothing in return to SSPX for the promise of obedience he urges.  Despite information spreading out of South America that as Cardinal Bergoglio, he was hostile to any variety of more-or-less traditional Latin Mass.

But for readers who know very little about him, Fr. Z is the man billed in a promo page for a 2013 conference "for men" in Madison (Wisc.):

A convert from Lutheranism in his early 20’s, Fr. Z, studied theology at the Pontifical Lateran University, and Patristic Theology at the “Augustinianum”--both in Rome--and was ordained in St. Peter’s Basilica by Bl. John Paul II in 1991.

Uh, huh.  "Ordained" more than 2 decades after the New Ordinal of 1969 changed traditional ordination into Novus Ordo "installation".

In late February, Fr. Z's Web-site was selling buttons bearing the coat-of-arms of Benedict XVI, surrounded by the motto "RE-ELECT RATZINGER !"

I'm amazed at all the converts from Protestantism, seeking fame on the Internet as "Catholics", who have the arrogance to condescendingly lecture cradle Catholics who remember the Church before Vatican II, about what it means to be a Roman Catholic!  Especially when the former-Protestants treat papal encyclicals as if they were invented during Vatican II.

My call to the SSPX as Francis begins [....], on the first full day of the pontificate of Francis.  The entire SSPX should gather in St. Peter’s Square, crawl on hands and knees to the Apostolic Palace and beg the new Pope to allow them to kiss his foot, knee and hand and promise obedience.  Given the new pontificate, what a gesture that would be.  And it would provide a HUGE does dose of credibility to those who desire to maintain continuity with tradition.



The above  the stupidist thing ever bleated out by Fr. Z .

He is the one obviously in need of a HUGE  dose of  an enema!

A HUGE Phosphate enema  , I might add!
