    Unless I missed it, I did not see any mention of una cuм masses in the Letter of the Nine (which makes sense honestly).



    Yes, the thrust of that letter was about other serious issues, which shows that the roots of much of what has transpired within the Society in recent years was present at that earlier time under ABL.

    Making it about sedevacantism  simplified it for public consumption and deflected inquiry into the other more serious issues.
    A repetition of this strategy is again in play in the SSPX/resistance.



    Apparently, the nine have several hundred supporters, and all of them post in Cath Info.

    We conclude logically that religion can give an efficacious and truly realistic answer to the great modern problems only if it is a religion that is profoundly lived, not simply a superficial and cheap religion made up of some vocal prayers and some ceremonies...

    • Personally I have never found it necessary to concern myself with the nine until this subject came up here.  That being said it is obvious that if one listens to the SSPX side of things only, you are getting but a small part of a larger story.

    Much the same as the Menzingen side of the resistance story.  Resistance to what? No issues here just a group of disobedient, sedevacantist leaning priests who rebel against authority.  Sounds eerily familiar to the refrains about the nine way back when.
