    The law of prayer is the law of faith, and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the perfect expression of the Catholic Faith. You can cope and seethe all you want, but the Mass said by a Catholic priest is just that..his opinion on the Crisis is irrelevant. The neo-SSPX, Resistance, sedevacantist, and independent priests are all dispensers of the Sacraments. That is their job.


    You're forgetting the Orthodox there. And the old Catholics.

    • It's also worth noting that the SSPX signed on with GREC, on the clandestine 'down low', basically just after +Lefebvre died - and they've been slipping ever since.  I'm saying that only so you don't go in with rose colored shades.  There is much to look out for actually but just know that going in.

    Protecting your faith is not something you have a choice about it.

    You are obliged to do it. Whether you "feel" it or not.
    I agree. If your faith is so weak that attending a neoSSPX mass would compromise it, stay away! But stop projecting :incense:

    Would that life be so simple that it was only about the Sacraments.
    That and the Mass, that's what I use them for, that's what everyone should use them for. What do you use your priests for?
