He was a professor at Econe for sometime until he got expelled by +Lefebvre because he wanted to have a false peace with the modernist.


The "he" about is Lefebvre and not the great theologian Lauriers correct?

Unfortunately Archbishop Lefebvre preferred not to cause a ruckus or "scandalize" the faithful with scary things like SV'ism or other similar things. He just wanted to have a little corner in the Conciliar Church, that plays along nicely if they allow him to continue his work. This was the fundamental problem with the SSPX since the beginning and probably why there are so many divisions, because they all ultimately stem from the thought of the Archbishop. It was his idea Summorum Pontificuм, the Indult, official "approval" and so forth. The more rigorist SSPX were also very much a part of the thought of the Archbishop, but only to a certain extent. Now we face all the problems of wanting to have your cake and eat it at the same time. The Pied Piper is asking for its due, and pound of flesh...


This is what I wish many good willed Catholics would see.  The idea of parsing every word and action of "valid" pontiffs for 50 years is unconscionable as is "resisting" one true Pope after another for 50 years.  Either people refuse to realize this or after realizing it STILL don't come to the obvious conclusion that "these guys ain't pope" for one reason or another, though I am still not sure what those reasons could be apart from emotion or latching onto a person, Lefebvre, more than the religion.    

I used to do the same thing.  I latched on to JP2 throughout the 90's and Ratzinger in the early 2000's because I knew they knew more than I and could lead us out of this mess.  But is this what the archbishop thought from 1965 - 1991 having had traditional theological training before that time?  How did he reconcile himself as being acknowledging, at least publicly, heretics as Popes ALL THAT TIME?  

Bishop McKenna says the recognize and resisters like to have their Pope and eat him too so your point is well taken.

Yes sorry about that! +Lefebvre cleaned house with then Fr. Lauriers at the time. God Bless him, I need to read a little bit more about him. Other then a few Angelus articles I have not read much of him directly, everything that I have read from him has been from Sedevacantism: A False solution to a real problem, and a few other independently sparsed articles. Does anyone have a link where I Can read some of his writings? Thanks  :popcorn:.
