Very good OP, Matthew!
Three reasons I'm forced in conscience to support the Resistance:
1. The unjust and illegal exclusion of +Williamson from the General Chapter, the attempt to completely silence and sideline him (to appease the Jєωs and the modern world), and his consequent expulsion.
Other members may suggest points that fall under this heading:
1. The 2009 anti-h0Ɩ0cαųst media frenzy conspiracy against Bp. Williamson
carried out with the assistance of Msgr. Fellay and Max Krah.
3. Bp. Fellay's lying, political manipulations and persecution of SSPX priests.
6. Bp. Fellay's expulsion of +W and sequestering of Bishops Tisser de Mallerais
and Alfonso de Galarreta to neutralize their resistance.
2. The new orientation of the SSPX, made publicly known. The SSPX is now concerned what Modernist Rome thinks of it, and will do everything it can to be as pleasing as possible to Rome. That is a compromise and a mistake.
Other members may suggest points that fall under this heading:
2. The discovery of the zionist Max Krah within the top
echelons of the SSPX and the SSPX sponsoring of Krah's eMBA.
3. Bp. Fellay's lying, political manipulations and persecution of SSPX priests.
4. Bp. Fellay banning of the publication of +ABL's sermons.
5. Bp. Fellay's doctrinal sell-out accord with Benedict and plus his
traitorous 6 conditions.
7. Bp. Fellay's market branding of an Apostolic religious order.
- The expulsions of Father Pfieffer, Father Hewko and Father Chazal.
- The lack of charity towards to Father Hewko which prevented him
from attending his own nephew's ordination.
- Denying communion to the faithful.
- Persecuting innocent Catholic school children.
I would therefore propose a second sub-category to the new orientation,
which would be the unjust practice of punitive enforcement of the new
orientation. That is, while the new orientation to appease apostate Rome
is a positive thing, the punishment of those who do not kowtow to this
illicit and sinful agenda is a quasi-negative category inasmuch as it
attempts to suppress the opposition, while in this case, the opposition is
in the right, while the leadership is in the wrong. That is, it is directed at
eliminating a demographic that has heretofore been a part of its reality.
Those are the first two obvious ones [categories] that come to mind; the reasons most people have. And there are plenty of other reasons. But it hit me yesterday that there is a third reason [category], which is almost as powerful [categorical] as the first two.
3. I've never read or heard, even once, the admission from the SSPX media/authorities/pro-Fellay faction that the Resistance supporters could be ANY ONE of these things (nevermind all 5):
1. Good Catholics
2. of good will
3. Long-standing, fervent supporters of Archbishop Lefebvre's SSPX
4. Well-informed
5. With a healthy, intact Spiritual Life
You left off one:
6. Good-looking.
HAHAHAHA
..But seriously,
This third category you're announcing would be well-described as a
negative category, that is, the first two were positive categories:
~ the (unjust) treatment of one of the 4 Society bishops, and
~ the new (un-Catholic) orientation of the ExSPX;
But this third category is not something the ExSPX
is doing or
has
done, but rather
it's something the ExSPX has NOT done. To be clear, the term "negative category" has nothing whatsoever
to do with how bad it makes someone feel, which is an erroneous
outlook based on the effect of Feminist deconstruction of Catholic
doctrine. This stupid nonsense is commonplace now in Novus Ordo
'communities' as it panders well to the Newage false religion they
purvey. It is inherently linked to the feminization of society and of
the conciliar church, which is not Catholic, but nonetheless has
possession (although illicitly) of the authority and power of the
Church, or so it would seem. But since what things seem to be is
all that matters in these end times, appearances are the whole of
people's perception and subjectivism says that IS reality, then you
get what you get.
That is such a violation of the truth, in my opinion, that it makes me question how committed they are to the truth. Their public statements -- which consistently bury the truth, can only be described as propaganda.
The truth is that most Resistance supporters are all those things, and non-Sedevacantist to boot (which is another frequent accusation of the accordistas). From what I've seen, most supporters of the esistance are 1. Good Catholics 2. of good will 3. Long-standing, fervent supporters of the SSPX 4. Well-informed 5. With a healthy, intact Spiritual Life
Just like after Vatican II, all the well-informed, Good Catholics of good will who were trying to live a holy life and who fervently supported the Church materially and spiritually for decades were vilified when they opposed Vatican II -- the same thing is happening today.
In sum, you feel obliged to support the Resistance against the
defection of the SSPX from the truth and holiness upon which it
was founded, and you do so because of what the Society
leadership has DONE, and because of what it has NOT DONE.
Regarding the latter, it has not given any admission that
Resistance supporters are:
1. Good Catholics
2. of good will
3. Long-standing, fervent supporters of Archbishop Lefebvre's SSPX
4. Well-informed
5. With a healthy, intact Spiritual Life
What they have given instead has been the calumny that
Resistance supporters are lunatic-fringe miscreants unworthy of
anyone's attention and should henceforth be SHUNNED like the
Amish do to members who don't dutifully tow the line like good
little cult members, or, like the Freemasons do (that is, if they
don't just KILL them).
In the case of the ExSPX, the SHUNNED are those who don't "Pray,
Pay and Obey!" -and, "Remain Silent!"
Like any Machiavellian tyrant, HEBF practices CRUSH the opposition! (BTW that's Tarcisio Cardinal Bertone, not HEBF)
