NOT A RUMOR

Patricius, I appreciate that you shared the information with us.  I believe what you reported to us regardless of how it works out.  I never would have imagined that I would be living through, all over again, what transpired after Vatican II.  In a way I hope that something definitive is announced soon so that all of the undecided or sceptical people will no longer be left wondering which way to go.  They will be face to face with the facts and will have to either compromise or leave and that includes the clergy as well.

Thanks, AJNC. God bless you. Also, don't mean to be a party spoiler, but I genuinely have no more inside information on this matter than has been released publicly. :) Dear TKGS, I just sent you a PM.

Just did a brief check anyway, but there doesn't seem to be anything up on the SSPX website, on DICI, Rorate, Vatican Insider etc regarding this yet. I personally doubt that anything formal will be announced today. Let's wait and see.

I have been looking too. I haven't seen anything on Zenit, Catholic News Agency, or Catholic World New. Could it be that this story about a "deal" was a lie?

Another rumor from an otherwise reliable and well-connected anonymous source bites the dust. Do we not have the resources to be Catholic without hanging on to what the SSPX or +Fellay does? Is it time to move on yet or is our gluttonous obsession with all things SSPX part of our existence feeding a hunger that cannot be otherwise satisfied? Is our existence, even our name, to be characterized forever by what we are NOT?

Maybe some people think I should say "I am sorry, it was only a rumor after all"?

I am not sorry. I have only reported a conversation between two serious priests about what Bishop Schneider actually said in November at a priest meeting. I asked for prayers to have the deal scrapped.

Maybe people did pray, and the deal was scrapped. Then I thank you all and the BVM.

But you also have to remember that Bishop Schneider said that the deal has been signed last July.

One thing I didn't mentioned last Thursday was that the bishop also said to the priests that the visitations of the SSPX seminaries by himself, cardinal Brandmüller, and others, were concluded positively, and that the official reports given to the Pope by these visitors were all very laudatory.

The only thing that didn't happen was the official announcement that was supposed to happen today. It doesn't mean the July deal has been scrapped. Maybe bishop Fellay considers the annoucement would have been too soon, and he wants to better prepare SSPX members. Who knows?

One day we will know.

God bless you all.
