Our Priest was at the laying of the corner stone for the new Seminary. Yesterday he gave very brief highlights.
1) Bishop Fellay stated that if the Archbishop did not have the courage to Consecrate Bishops in 1988 the Traditional Latin Mass would be dead.
2) Because of negotiations with Rome by the SSPX, the Traditional Mass was freed By BXVI. Now there are over 200 Novus Ordo Bishops who say the Latin Mass.
3) Many of these Bishops have contacted the SSPX saying that once they are recognized by Rome they would like to have their seminarians trained by the SSPX.
Although our priest didn’t say this, it is hypothesized that the reason for building such a monster seminary is b/c +Fellay is anticipating a union with apostate Rome. If each one of these Bishops sends five Seminarians, which is not an unreasonable number, the SSPX could get 1000 seminarians from these Novus Ordo Bishops.
It is also hypothesized that 1000 new traditional priests a year, spread all around the world, would breathe new life into the Church like it has not seen in at least half a century. This new diocese would then help fund this seminary so all the bills would be paid.
Two points don’t add up. 1) If these Bishops are so inspired by their new found Catholic Tradition, why don’t they start teaching this in their seminaries now or simply send their candidates for ordination to an Fraternity of St. Peter seminary? 2) Does +Fellay not realize that the end never justifies the means?
I would also note: That like most SSPX priests these days, Our Priest did not mention the cost of such a recogniton by modernist Rome. He did not speak of the dangers that such a compromise of the faith would have. He did not mention how the Doctrinal Counter Offer of April 15, 2012 would destroy all the SSPX had stood for. He only said that many of the 200 Bishops said they would like the SSPX to train their seminarians. He did not say it, but he implied that this was a great thing!
