Great post
Raoul, I never thought of myself as a dogmatic sedvacantist till I started reading the notes on this thread and my eyes are wide opened to the ridiculous claims of those who defend error.
It seems to me in simple terms that SSPX takes one out the front door of VII, only to bring them back in through the back door.
This is true, I have never ever believed that sede was the only way, for the only way is to Keep the Faith, but reading this thread, and posts from truly intelligent people, using fancy words, but miss the point. Reminds me of that quote, always learning but never come to realize the truth.
Keep the Faith, that is the way, do you really believe that the current "popes" are keeping the faith? Do you really believe that truth and error can exist side by side in a Diving Institution? Do you really believe that a pope doesn't need to be Catholic, and a true vicar of Christ can mock the Church?
Sorry but I don't.
I am not condemning anyone here to Hell, only God, or better yet, people condemn themselves. I am sure there are some Catholics in the state of grace within Vatican II, who will be judged, as I said by God, according to His grace given them. There are many holy SSPX faithful living the lives of saints, I hope, who are keeping the faith. God knows His own.
What I am saying is people defending the errors of these "Conciliar popes" will have to answer to God, for God is much harder on teachers than your common layperson, I read that in the Bible.
Perhaps I don't know the real meaning of dogmatic sedecantism, and have caused scandal, however if you read my notes again I never said all those outside the sede position are damned. I am fighting for my salvation just as you are, but again, both sides in the eyes of God can't be correct because by their own words we have two different religions. The novus ordo, meaning NEW, UPDATED, MODERN, CURRENT, OF WHICH THESE FELLOWS YOU ARE DEFENDING ARE THEIR POPES.
