For the second consecutive Sunday the SSPX priest in his homily has not mentioned Vatican Council II.

 

For the second consecutive Sunday the SSPX priest at the St.Catherine of Siena chapel in Rome, in his homily at the 10 am Latin Mass has not mentioned Vatican Council II. Last month I e-mailed the SSPX centers inclusing that of Albano, near Rome. I explained that there are two interpretations of Vatican Council II. One is rational and the other is irrational. The SSPX chooses the irrational version. These priests, like the others, at Albano, interpret Vatican Council II with the irrational premise and inference. So the conclusion is nontraditional. Then they will criticize the Council and not their common false premise.

At this Mass regularly attended by Roberto Fiore and his family, they are interpreting Vatican Council II, irrationally and not rationally.

Fr. Aldo Rossi a former prior of the SSPX in Albano, a few years back told me that there were no visible cases of non Catholics being saved with the baptism of desire (BOD) or in invincible ignorance (II). This is something obvious he said. There were no objective cases. Also some young SSPX priests at that time agreed with him.

However Econe seemed to want to continue to interpret Vatican Council II irrationally. Since for Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, the SSPX bishops and Pope Paul VI, BOD and II referred to visible and known non Catholics saved outside the Church. So LG 14, LG 16 etc in Vatican Council II were practical exceptions for the traditional strict interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS), with no known exceptions.

For me BOD and I.I refer to invisible cases but for this priest and the Fiore family it refers to visible cases. So the Council is a break with Tradition for them but not for me.

If the young people who were present at the Mass yesterday morning would interpret the Council rationally like me, then Vatican Council II would not be a break with the dogma EENS, the Syllabus of Errors and the Athanasius Creed.

The SSPX at Albano could then ask Pope Francis, the cardinals and all the bishops in the world, to also interpret the Council rationally and so the conclusion will be conservative.

Rome will then have come back to the Catholic Faith; to the conservative Catholic Faith, as Archbishop Lefebvre wanted. The SSPX priest yesterday  interpreted the Council like the liberals. Last Sunday he could not say that the Council supported the ecclesiology of St. Francis of Sales.

So he keeps liberalism in the Church alive. This is appreciated by the Left.       - Lionel Andrades
