I knew this would happen once Francis died (particularly amongst the conservatives/indulters). Meanwhile, the SSPX is evaluating whether there’s enough of this wishful thinking and manufactured hope and optimism to begin resuming selling its juridical recognition to its people…if that recognition didn’t already happen in 2015, in Argentina.

The actions of an antiPope when for the good of the Church are supplied with jurisdiction by the Church under the principle of common error.

It is for the good of the salvation of souls that priests with valid orders receive jurisdiction to hear confessions.

The SSPX has its errors and many sede groups have their own. Oppose the errors but avoid sectarianism which is a fruit of the flesh and not the spirit. It is never pleasing to God.

Do they have no love of Christ at all, the only saviour of their souls and the only hope of those in false religions. Like St Paul said, "They are like clanging gongs." They lack love of God and they present a stumbling block to those who might potentionally convert and be saved. They love neither God nor man.

Public heretics who knowingly reject Church teaching have no love for God for they call him and his teaching authority a liar.
