Was there anyone who foresaw the danger posed by Cardinal Kasper?  Yes, Archbishop Lefebvre saw it and warned us.

Un avis de Mgr Marcel Lefebvre sur Mgr Walter Kasper
Mgr Lefebvre a connu celui qui allait devenir le cardinal Kasper. Nommé par Jean-Paul II, ce dernier était déjà « l’homme à penser du Synode de 1985 ». Il semble qu’il soit également celui de 2014. Déjà, il y a vingt-cinq ans, le fondateur de la Fraternité Saint-Pie X mettait en garde contre la dangerosité de la pensée du personnage.

« Le pape vient de nommer Mgr Kasper en Allemagne. Il était secrétaire du Synode en 1985, présidé par le cardinal Danneels de Bruxelles. Kasper était le chef, l’homme à penser du Synode. Il est très intelligent et c’est l’un des plus dangereux. Le pape vient de le nommer évêque. Il est un peu comme l’évêque de Trèves qui est président de l’Assemblée épiscopale allemande (1) et qui est très dangereux aussi. Ce sont tout à fait des gens de gauche qui, au fond, rejoignent les Rahner, les Hans Küng, mais qui se gardent bien de le dire. Ils prennent des formes pour éviter qu’on les associe à eux, mais ils ont le même esprit. »
 Fideliter N° 70, juillet-août 1989, pp. 12-13.

(1) Karl Lehmann, évêque de Mayence (Allemagne) depuis le 21 juin 1983 et devenu ensuite cardinal le 21 février 2001

Tradical Translation

Archbishop Lefebvre knew the man who would become Cardinal Kasper.  Named by Pope John Paul II,  he was already the 'man behind the thought of the 1985 Synod'.  It seems that he equally so for the Synod fo 2014.  It has been 25 years since the founder of the Fraternity of Saint Pius the Tenth put us on our guard against the dangerous thoughts of this man.

"The Pope has come to name Mgr Kasper in Germany. He was the Secretary of the Synod in 1985, presided over by Cardinal Danneels of Brussels.  Kasper was the leader, the man behind the thought of the Synod. He is very intelligent and is one of the most dangerous. The Pope has named him a bishpo.He is a little like the bishop of Trèves, who is president of the German Episcopal Conference and who is also very dangerous. They are leftists who, in fact, join the Rahner and Hans Kung's, but who guard their words better.  The use forms of expression to avoid being associated with them (Rahner, Kung), but they are of the same spirit.

Rome,the SSPX and this time of Crisis - Updated

By
+ JMJ Obviously there's lots of events right now. First we have the April 1st - I almost thought it was April Fools - meeting between Pope Francis and Bishop Fellay.  Nothing really news worthy as this is a natural progression as Rome appears to be considering fulfilling Archbishop Lefebvre's wish to 'accept us as we are'. Second we have the April 8th publication of what will be a verbose exhortation of the Synod of the Family. I'm willing to bet that the Pope will give with one hand (unilateral regularization of SSPX) and take with the other (ambiguous document that opens the flood gates of sin further). Much to pray for.

The Vatican and SSPX – An Organizational Culture Perspective

By
Introduction The recent and continuing interactions between the Vatican and the SSPX have been a great opportunity for prayer and reflection.  The basis for the disagreement is theological and not liturgical. As noted by Dr. Lamont (2012), the SSPX theological position on the four key controversial aspects of the Second Vatican Council are base on prior theological work that resulted from relevant magisterial pronouncements.  So it is difficult to understand the apparent rejection of the theological position of the SSPX.

A Reply to Martin Blackshaw’s FLAWED Remnant article titled: FLAWED: SSPX Advice on Abortion-tainted Vaccines

By
 + JMJ    An article has appeared in the Remnant (link to article) and I am afraid that there are a number of flaws in it that need to be addressed. The author, Martin Blackshaw, believes that both the Church and the SSPX are misapplying the principle of Moral Theology called 'Cooperation In Evil'.  Unfortunately, Mr. Blackshaw rests most of his arguments on citing authors that support his position, without considering the possibility that they are wrong. This highlights a key factor in this crisis: ignorance of the faith and its application . I don't am not singling out Mr. Blackshaw for this criticism, I have observed that it applies to laity and religious, superior and subject a like.  No one seems immune in this enduring crisis, myself included.  I further believe that this ignorance is why so many Catholics, both traditional and non, rely on their gut feeling or "Catholic conscience" for charting their way through this crisis of the faith.  While...

Battle Joy

By
+ JMJ I was listening to a Cd of John Vennari on Battle Joy ( Recapture the Flag: Dedication and Battle Joy - by John Vennari ) and it really captures a key point that Catholics (Traditional and otherwise labelled) need to adopt. We should see this conflict as a chance to prove our mettle for our King and to earn our unending reward.  As veterans we'll be able to talk about the old battles in which we fought and the honour we gained in fighting for our King! Attached is a preview of course that, although secular, contains some of the elements of Battle Joy. P^3 https://www.coursera.org/learn/war/lecture/VDwfk/the-joy-of-battle

SSPX and the Resistance - A Comparison Of Ecclesiology

By
Shining the light of Church Teaching on the doctrinal positions of the SSPX and the Resistance. Principles are guides used to aid in decision making.  It stands to reason that bad principles will lead to bad decisions. The recent interactions between Rome and the SSPX has challenged a number of closely held cultural assumptions of people in both sides of the disagreement. This has resulted in cultural skirmishes in both Rome and the SSPX. Since it is the smaller of the two, the skirmishes have been more evident within the SSPX.  The cultural fault-line that Bishop Fellay crossed appears to be linked to two points of Catholic Doctrine: Ecclesiology and Obedience.  The cultural difference of view points is strong enough that it has resulted in the expulsion of a number of members.  It should also be noted that some other priests expelled since the beginning of the latest interactions (starting in 2000) held the same view points and have joined with the l...
