Some ideas/brainstorming...
(1) I think it would be possible to compile a list of LEGIT sspx priests with their consecration bishop and year. I think Traditio.com has some of this. Could also include deceased priests (as Traditio does) so that if someone is looking for a priest, they may not know they died.
PROS:
- I know a lot of the names of older sspx priests. I am not as up-to-date on the newer ones.
- Some members may want to pray for deceased priests as well.
CONS:
- A big negative to a listing of all LEGIT sspx priests is that (in the case of big brother), we would be helping them to track down such if things get nuts.
- Maybe they already know this? Probably. Just throwing out a 'yellow light' for this idea.
(2) In the case that the sspx goes indult in the next few years (which is entirely plausable), would it also make sense to compile a list of LEGIT 'sede' priests?
- sspv, cmri, etc.
- I'm sure there are some "odd" priests in these groups who should be watched too.
(3) To add to the list of possible "fake" priests, we should add any/all "priests" which are associated with Fr Pfeiffer, and any other wayward priests who are larping as bishops.
(4) I'm sure there are some "independent" priests who are also LEGIT and also dubious.
In other words... should this site be all-consuming and cover all Trad activities? Putting aside the big CON of the govt, I think yes. But the govt question is one i'm not sure how to access. It's certainly a risk. Just not sure how big of one vs the risk of dubious priests.
