"Traditionalists" deadline



After the lifting of excommunication of SSPX members in 2009, many speculated that these members would return fully to communion with Rome.  However, that is not so easy to do.  The SSPX call themselves "Traditionalists" who view Vatican II as a mistake, have Anti Semitic views, and even question the validity of Popes after St. Pius X.  This stems from renegade Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre's clash with the Catholic Church which caused him to separate himself from Rome

The Society of St. Pius X is due to give its response to the Vatican soon after the Vatican offered its conditions for reconciliation.  I hope they go along with the Vatican and realize that Christ prayed for unity among believers.  We can't have a thousand churches claiming to be the one true Church, contradicting each other.  This makes Christianity look foolish.

Jesus intended for One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church headed by His Vicar who is currently Pope Benedict XVI.  

Imagine the force for good the Catholic Church would be if all Protestants, Orthodox and schismatic Catholics reunite with her?
