Are you or did you really believe that prior to this happening, you thought you were schismatic you believed that you were OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH? Is that what SSPX believed; there is something very wrong with that logic.
You are not talking logic, not sure what you're talking.
I've been SSPX since it began, even prior to then. Also had to leave it for some years during it's sede divisive infighting years in the 80s, but when that was settled I returned, so I can say with certainty that they've always known they are not schismatic and have always been Catholic. +Fellay was saying that Rome *is saying* that they FINALLY realize this now too. To which I say, while Rome remains apostate, who really cares what they FINALLY realize.
When the priests of the SSPX I use for Mass and the sacraments start NOing it up and preaching errors, I will leave again - may even have to go to a sede for Mass and the sacraments if that's what it means.
