It has taken H.E. a month to finally comment on the General Chapter in specifics...
...Surely these Conditions demonstrate an alarming weakness on the part of the Society’s leaders as a whole...
...In conclusion, these six conditions are excessively grave. Unless the Society’s leadership is shaken out of its dream of peace with Conciliar Rome as revealed by them, then the last worldwide bastion of Catholic Tradition risks being on its way to surrendering to the enemies of the Faith. Maybe bastions are out of date.
Does anyone doubt that he would have had similar observations if he had been
present himself? But remember: the first act of the Chapter was to confirm the
nefarious order of +Fellay to prevent +Williamson from attending the Chapter.
What will "shake" the Society's leadership "out of its dream of peace with Conciliar
Rome?" What could do so? Is it likely to happen? What can we do about it?

I just got a
Seminary letter from Fr. Yves Le Roux, Winona. It comes with a
beautiful, one page collage of color photos of the 8 new ordinands at Winona, 2
of whom are the two Benedictines from Our Lady of Guadalupe Monastery in
New Mexico... Silver City, that is. (There are at least two other Benedictine
monasteries in NM, which are Novus Ordo: Pecos and Abiquiu.) At the bottom of
the color page (back side) it asks us to contribute to the new seminary project in
Virginia -- you know, the one that +Fellay could easily turn over, lock, stock, and
barrel, to the local bishop if he signs a "deal" with Rome, which could happen at
any time, according to +Williamson, if you know how to read English and have
paid attention to his words, including those of this particular EC 268. (Of course,
the Fellayites assure us that no deal is in the offing and we are a bunch of
weenies for saying the contrary.)
It's a nice letter, asking us to consider the spiritual value of a retreat during this
time of Summer when we think of vacations. It's an interesting message, however,
it is glaringly obvious to me that it comes at the END of the summer, on the
occasion of Labor Day Weekend in the USA, the "official end of summer
vacations." IOW: now that summer vacations are done with, Fr. Le Roux is asking
us to think about what we might do with our summer vacation, now that it's too
late to plan for it ... HUH? Is he talking about NEXT summer? That would be 8 or 9
months in the future.
Or, is he rather hinting at the fact that we may have "missed" something else?
Is he perhaps hinting at the fact that the General Chapter just took place and
Bishop Williamson was illegally prevented from attending, and so not only His
Excellency missed the Chapter, but THE WHOLE WORLD has "missed" whatever
benefits the Chapter may have had if H.E. had been present?
Is Fr. Le Roux hinting at the fact that now that we have missed the chance to
have a retreat during our summer vacation this summer, that perhaps planning
8 or 9 months ahead of time for next summer would be a way of
fortifying our
homes, by "preparing to fight for the Faith from within our homes?" -- As H.E.
ends this EC 268? And therefore, is Fr. Le Roux indirectly hinting at our need to be prepared for
what is going to happen in the SSPX during the next 8 or 9 months, while +Fellay
and the "office help" continue to chew away at the framework of the SSPX like
a swarm of termites?
Note: H.E. does not describe what we should do to "fortify our homes." He no
doubt is going to take that up next week! Or, that is, if we really want him to,
perhaps we ought to get busy and write him letters requesting that he do so.
Alternatively, just keep reading CathInfo and see what turns up .................. :wink:
