    • "I trust +Fellay, and going with Rome is the right decision."

    I can't believe there are still two bona-fide "Accordistas" on CathInfo.

    An Accordista is defined as: a Traditional Catholic who attends the SSPX and believes an accord with (current, Modernist, unconverted) Rome is a good idea.

    It's different from an "SSPX Supporter" or "Anti-Resistance".

    There are those who don't support the Resistance for various reasons, and those who attend the SSPX (and are even positive about he SSPX) but they don't go so far as to say they are FOR a practical deal with unconverted Rome.

    • I am afraid that Fellay has already made a deal with Rome and we do not
    know about it.

    • We need more people to vote!  Of course, the low turnout rate is about the same for politics, so why am I surprised at the apathy?

    • I had a conversation with an SSPX priest years before the "lifting" of the phony excommunications.

    The priest accidentally spilled the beans to me that he was talking about Bishop Fellay.  

    The essence of it was the leadership of the SSPX had basically given up on the mission of LeFebvre.  

    They were disappointed with the slow growth of the SSPX, all the pressures and troubles and the failure of the Crisis in the Church being even recognized by anyone other than a small contingent of noisy, confused and diverse Catholics.  

    I held sort of a suspended judgement at that time since it was just talk.  However everything that went on with the election of Benedict XVI and all of the subsequent compromises of truth lead me to believe the priest was accurate.

    Since then i've surmises that the leadership including Fellay has been wanting nothing more than to dump the SSPX back into Rome's hands and get good position in the Roman machine.

    • Well, the Society has passed its sell by date in terms of reviving the old order. The children of the remnant could not care a fig leaf about something not of their time. They will joke about their parents' attachment to the "weird religion of some old frog". His bishops are going nowhere except to pasture. The skill will be to reinvent the organisation before its followers fade away. In situations like this one thinks of takeovers or management buy outs  ....   but what and where is the market?

    • I looked at the results before voting, so now it won't let me vote!

    I'd like to add one to "I don't trust Bishop Fellay, for other reasons." (I hope this also includes because of the possible deal with Rome.)

    • I see Fellay joining New Order.  And what about this seminary in VA and Krah behind it?  I don't look up to Fellay. Don't trust him either.  He is doing just what Our Lady said would happen, spreading confusion and even the Elites will be fooled.

    • I visit the 'sspx faithful' facebook page every now and again.  The most recent vatican article on 'the deal' was met with denials, false hope and this weird optimism that 'God will protect the society'.  So sad.  So naive.

    • How about --

    I don't agree with +Fellay's premises but believe that he's being consistent with them.  I do believer, however, that he's become excessively political and slick in his machinations.

    • There are many, many reasons to distrust Bp. Bernard Fellay.
    Enough reasons to write a book.

    • This is my own, honest, 100% honest, opinion. Pleas respect my opinion and realize that it just the opinion of one sinner.

    I think Bishop Fellay has a very difficult job and position. On the one hand he has to interpret his mentor, his consecrator, Archbishop Lefevbre in an authentic and true manner. On the other hand he has clamor from BOTH spectrums of the argument. From the resistance he is a liberal. From Rome and the ordinaries, he is a nαzι and Radical. From his own sheep, the people are divided. Yes, he is a Bishop but, at the end of the day, he is only human and keeping the "ball rolling" is part of his job.

    I believed, 100%, that the SSPX would be a personal prelature before the end of the Year of "Mercy." I think the intention of ROme with the granting of jurisdiction was to slide them into a Prelature or other agreement.

    The recent declaration, I believe, is very strongly worded. If Bishop Fellay wanted an agreement he would have left the door more open or would have opened the door fully and taken advantage of this "Year of Mercy" and signed Rome's agreement.

    Still, I do not trust him fully. Do I believe his sacraments are valid? YES! Without a doubt. Do I think the priests he consecrates are validly consecrated priests? Yes! Absolutely! Do I think he is human and sometimes gets hazy eyes when he sees ROme and the purple buttons and the birettas? Yes. He is human. As am I and you. However, after the recent declaration, I feel "safe" that the SSPX will continue being the ship in the violent sea of confusion as a place of peace and Truth. The Society is in the middle of a storm and it's bound to get wet sometimes.

    • A whopping 87.14% don't trust their dear leader for one reason or another...

    And yes, I am one of them.  AND I have one foot firmly planted on both sides of the fence.
    But if they end up under the thumb of Rome I will no longer be on both sides.
