If you accept the V2 Popes, then why do you pay any heed to an excommunicated man?
Because his "excommunication" was invalid. +Lefebvre was never even given a trial (and for good reason!)
That's how it works you know. To actually excommunicate a prelate from the Church, they are given an ecclesiastical trial and found guilty.

"Ecclesia Dei Afflicta" was a psy-op contrived to confuse the mass of the Faithful, who are largely ignorant of Canon Law and theology.

By the way, if some Catholics come to CathInfo and are convinced by Sedevacantism etc. that's not my fault.

They are going to do their research. CathInfo has just made itself a large, established site full of content, that's all. If CathInfo didn't exist these sedevacantist converts would have just clicked on another link in Google and ended up just as sedevacantist. They were obviously leaning that direction in the first place.

Certain types are going to be attracted to the simplicity of the sedevacantist solution, as well as the satisfying nature of dismissing the pope completely. Human nature is human nature.

You can't keep Catholics in a bubble. They are grown men and women with free will.

That's like saying it's sinful to run a library, because many errors and sins are found in the books within. Nevertheless, when a person sins after getting an idea from a library book, the sin is solely THEIRS ALONE and the librarian, library owner, etc. does not share in that sin.

The same Canon Law that made his ordinations invalid, right?
His suspension was equally invalid. +Lefebvre acted for the greater good of the Church and if you're a Trad you should know that.

An excerpt from 1980 is of limited value today. On the first premise, you must first agree with his views on the matter, and the situation has drastically changed, not in the general but, in those factors by which those distinctions that he talks about, should be made.

And his position has, not by design but its application far beyond its practicle life, has come to cause its own divisions among Traditional Catholics whilst embracing indult and conservative Novus Ordo types.

More confusion and disarray.

Quite a few forum members are against what +ABL stood for. Many of them are some version of sede.
Literally no one here has ever condemned +ABL or what he stood for, even if they disagreed with some of his beliefs.
