I don’t think the SSPX are in schism. Instead it is the bishops, cardinals and popes who are in schism with their irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II and the SSPX is correctly rejecting this version of the Council. Why should they accept a Council which is a rupture with Tradition?

I too reject the irrational interpretation of Vatican Council II. I accept Vatican Council II in harmony with the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) of Pope Honorius III who approved the Dominican Order of Preachers. I accept the rest of Tradition (Syllabus of Errors, Catechism of Pope Pius X etc) when it is interpreted rationally. Vatican Council II can only be interpreted rationally. This is the ethical interpretation. The present interpretation of the popes and cardinals is dishonest.  - Lionel Andrades
