A few little lights on what the agreement entails according to what His Excellency Bishop Fellay told the priests while he was in Austria. No it wasn't an interview so I can't put a link, it was simply a discussion. Take this bit of news or leave it. I can't give the priests name so I can't necessarily back up what I've just posted, but it was relayed by Father none the less.1.) THE POPE WILL DECIDE ON WHO WILL BE BISHOPS OF THE SSPX. WHO WILL REPLACE THOSE WHO LEAVE OR WHO DO NOT CHOSE TO GO ALONG WITH THE AGREEMENT. THOSE BISHOPS WILL BE FREE TO LEAVE, AND THEY WILL BE REPLACED.2.) NO NEW STRUCTURES ARE ALLOWED TO BE ERECTED WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE DIOCESAN BISHOPS3.) ANY BUILDINGS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD MUST BE CLOSED DOWN. ANY BUILDINGS OLDER THAN 3 YEARS OLD MAY REMAIN UP AND RUNNING.According to His Excellency the General Chapter will not be meeting to discuss an acceptance of the agreement but simply to learn what the new statutes will be under the new agreement with Rome.
3.) ANY BUILDINGS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD MUST BE CLOSED DOWN. ANY BUILDINGS OLDER THAN 3 YEARS OLD MAY REMAIN UP AND RUNNING.
Note to forum- I currently have inquiries in to high ranking SSPX personalities, asking them whether they can confirm or deny the substance of this thread. As soon as I have a response, presuming it not be given on the condition of confidentiality, I will post it.
I note that item 1 does not guarantee bishops chosen by Rome would necessarily come from within the ranks of the Society.
So millions have been presumably collected for building a new seminary, which may now rest in the decision making authority of the local bishop?
