Rumours of Discord within the Society of St. Pius X

Edit: If you wanted democracy, you should have signed up  for  a different religion. It also seems like it would be a good idea to keep your powder dry till a decision has been made one way or another and the way the many of the laity are lamenting the way this is going is interesting as well.  Was the Protestant Revolt a good idea after all?

[TIA] In order to obtain a modernist personal prelature, Bishop Fellay has transformed the work of Archbishop Lefebvre into a personal dictatorship, assisted by a small circle of a dozen priests inside the SSPX ranks. The founder, who always acted transparently before the faithful regarding his relations with Rome, was betrayed.


Bernard Fellay


Accused of being a dictator
and asked to resign
Increasingly isolated in his allegiance to the Rome of Benedict XVI, and after having silenced the writings of the founder [a lawsuit he filed forbidding the dissemination of the Archbishop�s sermons], Bishop Fellay now censures the two opposed Bishops plus the 30 superiors of SSPX who rejected this anti-natural merge. When will Bishop Fellay and Fr. Schmidberger be deposed, the infiltrated priests expelled, and this politics of betrayal be publicly condemned?

At Albano on October 4, 2011, Bishop Fellay reportedly did not show the text of the Doctrinal Preamble to the SSPX superiors, but only gave a spoken presentation of it. This demonstrates his lack of transparency and his suspicion toward the very members of the General Chapter. Along with his two executives - Frs. Pfluger and N�ly - Bishop Fellay seems to want to impose only his processus of merge-betrayal to the other superiors of the SSPX.

I find the article interesting in that:
1. The sources that TIA uses are ex-sspx. Highly unlikely to be impartial in their investigative reporting.
2. The tone has a nice thick conspiracy theory flavour (high on emotional content, low on information).
3. Based on my discussions with Bishop Tissier de Mallerais, it does not jive.

Just another example of the pressures being applied externally to the SSPX (ex-SSPX priests are by definition -out).

What's needed: p^3
Prayer
Patience
Perseverence

TIA are rabble-rousers. They've never cared for the SSPX OR Archbishop Lefebvre so why should anyone listen to them in the first place?

TIA has some good stuff. Like anything else, it's not perfect. I'm very saddened by the division within the Catholic Church whenever it occurs. The Society and TIA should be allies.

Hmmm... this is all very interesting! I agree with staying with the 3 P's; however, one must also keep an ear to the ground, stay awake, and be prepared for whether or not Bishop Fellay signs on the dotted line. Pray for us O Holy Mother of God.

IS THE SSPX MASS VALID? YES, BUT THE PRIEST COULD BE IN MORTAL SIN FOR REJECTING A DEFINED DOGMA WITH HIS ‘EXCEPTIONS’
There are conditions for offering the Tridentine Rite Mass. Are they being met by the SSPX ?
