In much of the furor over the status of the SSPX and the consecrations of 1988, the reasons why the Archbishop undertook this gigantic step in the face of severe opposition is lost.
Here is a compendium of some articles to provide some perspective.
P^3
We simply cannot (accept this spirit and proposals), despite all the desires which we have to be in full union with you. Given this new spirit which now rules in Rome and which you wish to communicate to us, we prefer to continue in Tradition; to keep Tradition while waiting for Tradition to regain its place at Rome, while waiting for Tradition to re-assume its place in the Roman authorities, in their minds." (From the Sermon at the Consecrations)
