For the record I think SSPX would do well to express itself more like philosopher here instead of as this article and some of those commenting. He has the right idea as to where the problems we are all aware of lie-it's not in the documents. When attributed to VC2 you antagonize a lot of folks who might otherwise support you. Just a little hint here guys.

BM-that would defeat my purpose for commenting here.

Ben Martin--I would reply, but GTV will delete my comment.

Let me try again--this addresses the title of the article: If SSPX is so right, why do they recognize the authority of the Pope or seek to rejoin the Holy Roman Catholic Church?

Again, we have an article posted here attributing "novelties" and "errors" to the Second Vatican Council. How can we comment on the "novelties" when none are stated? The issue is that the "novelties" and "errors" came from those dissidents inside the Church who misinterpreted and hijacked. VC2. If there are errors in the documents, they need to be stated and referenced. Also, if they recognize the authority of the Pope, why are they disobedient?

GTV, please specify the "beliefs shaped by the historic Second Vatican Council" Bishop Clark possesses or expresses, noting citations of specific Council documents.

Feminists are for "Choice" as long as it is THEIR choice. Look at this exposure of Slughter's abuse of young women against their will in the quest for putting women in positions of power and control. This is what she has planned for our daughters.
