In an interview with Fideliter in 2001, you mentioned the "movement of profound sympathy from the young clergy for the Society." Has this movement grown, especially with the motu proprio in 2007?

"Without a doubt! The motu proprio gave this movement a new impetus. And it is important to insist upon Benedict XVI's interest for the liturgy in general. He truly wished to put the entire traditional liturgy, not only the Mass, at the disposition of the priests and the faithful; this did not happen because there was too much opposition. But the young priests identify with this liturgy, precisely because it is timeless. The Church lives in eternity. The liturgy does also too, which is why it is always young. Close to God, it is outside of time. So it is no surprise that the baptismal character makes this harmony resound even in souls that have never known the liturgy. And the way the young priests react when they discover this liturgy is moving: they have the impression a treasure has been hidden from them." ...

Is this accurate? I've never encountered this statement. Rather that the Church as Bride of Christ will, through time, follow in His footsteps, culminating in an apparent death. Can any ex-seminarians instruct?

He also said this:

"The Society's weaknesses? The risk of separation is serious. Look at the caricature of Tradition that calls itself the "Resistance", for example: it is a non-Catholic spirit that is almost sectarian. We wish to have nothing to do with it; it is a movement that is withdrawn into itself, with people who think that they are the only good and just men on earth: that is not Catholic. It is an objective, but relative danger. Most of the Society is healthy and will not fall into these illusions. This encourages us to rely upon supernatural means. God will show us what He wants of us; He will speak through circuмstances."

Well, the sectarian Prince calling others so............. :scratchchin:

Ahh.......the revealing of those prudential truths......
When the Roman apostates offer Him his own fiefdom, it will be God manifesting His will.

We shall no longer be lead by Faith, Doctrine and Dogma, but by the events of our world.

Bishop Fellay says re New Mass:

"What do you think of Cardinal Sarah's suggestion of introducing the traditional offertory into the New Mass?

"It is not a new idea; it has been around in Rome for ten years. I am glad it has been taken up again. Some criticize the idea, saying it is a way of mixing the profane with the sacred. On the contrary, in the perspective of bringing health back to the Church, I think it would be a great step forward, because the Offertory is a summary of the Catholic principles of the Mass, of the expiatory sacrifice offered to the Blessed Trinity, offered by the priest to God in reparation for sins, and accompanied by the faithful. And that would gradually bring the faithful back to the traditional Mass they have lost."

Hmmmm - is this modernism at work? Is this the groundwork for a 'New' New Mass? I seem to recall a wonderful Catholic Archbishop once said:

".....an adulterous union and from such a union only bastards can come. The rite of the new mass is a bastard rite....."

Bishop Fellay, please, what are you talking about?

Poor, deluded people who think that the Catholic Church, God's Church, can give them grave errors and endanger their salvation.

They do not know their Mother.

How far this is from Archbishop Lefebvre...

The only thing that surprises me is that +Fellay can have any credibility at all. When Cardinal Canizares Llovera quoted +Fellay saying that if ABL had seen the (reform of the reform) Mass as offered at the Abbey near Florence, he (ABL) "would not have taken the step he did", +Fellay practically accused him of lying. Now he is admitting that dressing up the N.O.M "would gradually bring the faithful back to the traditional Mass". He clearly accepts the two rites as equal, all he need is one missal to compliment the other (Summ.Pont.) and bingo! we have the hybrid missal which would be enough for the new SSPX and any confounded souls who follow them.
