    Quote from: SpiritusSanctus
    There are sedevacantists here, InfiniteFaith (Augustinian being one of them), since you keep asking people if they are sedes.

    The purpose of the SSPX was to uphold Tradition when Archbishop LeFebvre was its superior... the last few years though, it appears Bishop Fellay has a different purpose in mind.


    If it wasn't for the SSPX, today there likely would be only be an independent priest here and there, from dubious ordinations like the "Thuc line". Most of the sede priests were ordained by the SSPX, no? Moreover, there would be no indult mass, no Fraternity of St. Peter and such.


    I would like to know why anyone thinks the "Thuc line" is dubious.  The only "evidence" I've ever seen or heard is calumny.  nadieimportante is generally quite sound in his thinking, so I am curious why he (or others) would consider this line to be "dubious."

  • Even the best of us get sold a line of tripe sometimes.  A lot of that is going around these days and most especially on Cathinfo.

  • I said this before, but it falls on deaf ears.  Here in Spokane there is a NOVUS ORDO, pastor, who personally knew Thuc and says he was sane and knew what he was doing, nothing dubious about him.   Now consider that since he is Novus Ordo he would have an agenda to say the opposite about him.  

    Yet, we have "so-called" Catholics here on the forum that love to describe him as dubious and other such words.  I wonder who are the true Catholics sometime, I don't always know but feel confident that God knows.  

    We know the end of the story, Trust God, and let Him bring this madness to its end.  

    CMRI is one of several Traditional Catholic groups that God has blessed, fear not!
    Please pray for my soul.

  • Not that my opinion is of any particular merit, but I don't see any reason to think that Thuc lines are in and of themselves invalid, I am certainly not a sedevacantist, ane have no problem with correctly celebrated NO Masses, so I could have the same agenda as the pastor Myrna mentioned

    Archbishop Thuc was in his right mind.

  • Archbishop Thuc may not have been in perfect mental health, and he exhibited poor judgement at times, but I know of nothing to suggest that he was incapable of having a valid intention to ordain an of carrying out the rite correctly

    Thuc went along with the heresies of Vatican 2 and said the Novus Ordo. Based on that one would have to question his status as a Catholic bishop.


    I can understand you saying this if a priest has assured you that it's so.  But you really ought to check into this more deeply.

    He exhibited very poor judgment at times, but there is no evidence that would justify a positive doubt as to his mental fitness.  So, I certainly agree that there is "nothing to suggest that he was incapable of having a valid intention to ordain an of carrying out the rite correctly."  From what I have heard, he was never senile and kept his full mental sharpness until he was last seen (i.e., before he was kidnapped).  Anyway, the SSPV claims that his line is positively dubious, but they have no grounds for claiming a positive doubt, and should know better.  Their refusal to be in communion with other Catholics on this score is frankly schismatic.

    They state boldly that Thuc was either insane or evil, and this is why I thought Hermen was being so vague about the Archbishop.  

    This throws people off the scent of the Bp. Mendez stories.

    Maybe, yet the "Thuc issue" predates the Bp. Mendez consecration of Bp. Kelly. Remember, Fr. Cekada wrote while still in the SSPV, as " peregrinus", the tract "Two Bishops in Every Garage."

    I have heard that the criticism of Mendez consecration caused an escalation of the SSPV rhetoric regarding Thuc, the consecrator of Bp. Dolan.

     Another "pissing match" in SW Ohio, hard to believe, isn't it?
