Promoting is the wrong word. They are reporting it. Just as, in that same section, they are reporting on (and not promoting) the mosque in Paris, and the terrorist attack in the Congo.

You can call it what you will but there are movies about JPII I have not seen "reported" on DICI. It's obviously worth there time and space.

Excerpts from the Nov. 15, Letter to Friends and Benefactors #85

On the Feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin, November 21, 2015
+ Bernard Fellay

Quote

On the occasion of the Synod on the Family, you sent a petition to the Holy Father, then a declaration. Why?

The purpose of our petition was to point out as clearly as possible to the Supreme Pontiff the seriousness of the present hour and the decisive impact of his ruling in moral matters of such importance. Pope Francis learned of our sentiments on September 18th, before his departure for Cuba and the United States, and he informed us that he would change nothing of the Catholic doctrine concerning marriage, particularly its indissolubility. But we feared that, in practice, the indissoluble character of the matrimonial bond would be disregarded. And this is in fact what happened, on the one hand with the motu proprio reforming the procedure for declaring the

nullity of marriages, and on the other hand with the final docuмent of this Synod. Hence my declaration intending to recall to mind the constant teaching of the Church on a multitude of points that were discussed and sometimes called into question during the month of October. I will not conceal from you the fact that to me the sorry spectacle that the Synod presented seems particularly shameful and scandalous on more than one count.

It is apparent that Bishop Fellay is somewhat upset at the turn of events. Perhaps this is why any announcement is not being made official because there are still some loose ends.

Nevertheless, with the history of Vatican intrigues and deception, why did Bishop Fellay seem to think that the Vatican would honor his requests? Is he just plain naive or part of the problem? Frankly, I think he has been bought out or blackmailed.

Perhaps that is because the most notable movies/mini-series about JPII pre-date DICI. This "there is an agreement coming under every rock" mentality is a real credibility crusher.

IF there is no agreement is because Francis hasn't wanted it, not +Fellay. The SSPX leadership has made it clear where their (Roman) hearts are. The only "credibility crusher" is their own hypocrisy. If they (SSPX) want to go to Rome...be gone! They should follow their conscience. And if they are already there via Argentina, they should not pretend they are not. They could not have any problems with an agreement because they consider +Faure's consecration unnecessary while claiming not have signed.

The SSPX didn't even learn from the FI disaster and they were only guilty by association (friendship) with the SSPX. Wait and see what they will do to the SSPX if they are stupid enough to do it (or have done it).

Here is a quote from an interview of Bishop Schneider by Rorate Caeli published on Jan.31, 2016. He talks about the SSPX and Rome.

"Rorate Caeli: A non-typical situation in the church is the Priestly Society of St. Pius X (SSPX). Why does Your Excellency think that so many Catholics are afraid of the SSPX or anxious about any association with it? From what Your Excellency has seen, what gifts do you think the SSPX can bring to the mainstream Church?

H.E. Schneider: When someone or something is unimportant and weak, nobody has fear of it. Those who have fear of the Priestly Society of St. Pius X ultimately have fear of the perennial Catholic truths and of its demands in the moral and the liturgical domain.

When the SSPX tries to believe, to worship and to live morally the way our fore-fathers and the best-known Saints did during a millennial period, then one has to consider the life and the work of these Catholic priests and faithful of the SSPX as a gift for the Church in our days – even as one of the several instruments which the Divine Providence uses to remedy the enormity of the current general crisis of the faith, of the morals and of the liturgy inside the Church.

In some sectors of the SSPX there are, however, as it is the case in every human society some eccentric personalities. They have a method and a mindset which lack justice and charity and consequently the true “sentire cuм ecclesia,” and there is the danger of an ecclesial autocephaly and to be the last judicial instance in the Church. However, to my knowledge, the healthier part corresponds to the major part of the SSPX and I consider their General Superior, His Excellency Monsignor Bernard Fellay, as an exemplarily and true Catholic bishop. There is some hope for a canonical recognition of the SPPX."
