In which I put my thoughts down on why I think the SSPX was in the wrong. Tomorrow comes what we must do next as Catholics.

@ReubenR80027912 The worst part is when you ask for feedback from an individual and the response is clearly "I didn't read it, i fed it into an AI"
If I wanted the clanker feedback, I would've sent it to the clanker myself.

Over the last 6 months we’ve had a big push for CoPilot & the result has been: *huge* increases in production…of stuff I’m never gonna read
Getting memos *obviously* written by AI (format & content) makes me actively despise the person. Maybe a “me” problem but (1/2)
Ruxandra Teslo 🧬@RuxandraTeslo
I really think the biggest danger from AI is the slopification of our minds. We should be quite socially penalising of people who produce slop, especially if they're high status (like the CEO of one of the most successful young companies), because when high status ppl do things, they're much more likely to get normalised.

This is streamslop that will be nonetheless hilarious to play with a group of friends if that's your thing.

@FrMatthewLC @TARSRel0aded Yes, fully agreed. Was more speaking generally about the reaction of this to many, not you in particular.
English
@CatholicSmark @TARSRel0aded I agree that we should have appeals. But there are a limit to how much they can appeal & the Pope signs a final inappealable note in cases.
English
This is actually huge.
Archbishop Lefebvre did not file a formal appeal like this in 1988.
All penalties are now suspended until Rome adjudicates this formally, per Canon Law…
And there is ZERO chance the excommunication stand if properly adjudicated

General House Communiqué: The Society Files an Appeal Against the Decree of 2 July 2026 dlvr.it/TTWVQl
English
@FrMatthewLC @TARSRel0aded But I also think people trying to say this is bad that there is an appeal process are really missing the forest for the trees.
Tempting as it might be, we do not want separate judicial structures just for the SSPX. That just feeds the narrative of a persecution.
English
@CatholicSmark @TARSRel0aded The Pope might sign some note so this is not appealable further at all.
English
@EamonnClark @FrMatthewLC @TARSRel0aded That's probably a PR statement. The actual appeals were probably on account of the six bishops, and likely a few priests in the Society who were subsequently impacted (such as the Superior General) I'd guess.
English
@FrMatthewLC @TARSRel0aded They don't have juridical personality. How can they write "on behalf of" anyone?
English
@FrMatthewLC @TARSRel0aded Yeah there's a chance you will see some subsequent decrees "verifying" confessions and marriage privileges were revoked, but that's about all you're going to see in the appeal.
The excommunication is 100% going to stand.
English
@TARSRel0aded And there is ZERO chance the excommunication will be rescinded when properly adjudicated
FTFY

@OVTweetmarck Its one of the greatest laugh lines in a movie period. Just the absolute confidence with which he says it.

I could make a full time ministry out of just correcting the use of the term Modernism (and its permutations) on this site.
Libs: Everyone I hate is Hitler.
Cons: Everyone I hate is a DEI hire.
Trads: Everyone I hate is a Modernist.

@Robkearney1981 @MLJHaynes The issue is not "if he chooses to" but whether or not he has in fact done so.
The appeal should fail, and rightly so (though I think there is a possibility the confessions thing might pose tricks), but the idea Rome should follow its own laws when punishing is not a bad thing
English
@MLJHaynes This is an attempt at nonsensical, legalistic trickery on the SSPX's part.
They act as if the Church is ruled by an unchangeable Canon law when, in reality, these rules have been created by previous popes and can all be altered or undone by the current one if he chooses to.
English
JUST IN: The SSPX has filed a “preliminary recourse” against the Vatican decree of excommunication
Submitted on July 11, in line with Canon 1734
It thus temporarily suspends the Vatican penalty against them:
“This request, which constitutes the mandatory preliminary step before the possible introduction of a hierarchical recourse, has the effect of suspending the execution of the decree, in accordance with canon 1353 of the Code of Canon Law.”

@davidgmac9 @hugo_rune3791 @josephnollasj Amd what is the definition of this housebroken or domesticated "trad"
English
@hugo_rune3791 @CatholicSmark @josephnollasj That’s an interesting question. Yes there are good people who define themselves as “Trad” who I take no issue with. I would not venture a guess as to what percentage.
English
We mustn’t blame sacraments for sin. The holy sacrifice of the Mass is not a problem.
The TLM isn’t responsible for some people rejecting Vatican II or papal authority.
Mike Lewis@mfjlewis
At a time when the Tridentine Mass is so clearly associated with schism and resistance to the pope, how is "we need more of this, not less" any kind of rational response to the problem? Sure, accommodate those who are attached, but for the Church it's past time to move on.
English
@Ejmiller25 Dave Ramsey is where you learn.
Caleb Hammer is where you laugh
English
@CatholicSmark Ok. Probably. I try not to think about him too much. Too busy thinking about Anthony Tridentine
English
I'm reminded of a senior editor at a major Catholic publisher who responded to Michael Voris coming out "well now we know why he received communion on the tongue"
Or David Lafferty's wild misogyny about women who receive communion kneeling/on tongue having an oral fixation.
Dave MacDonald@davidgmac9
@CatholicSmark @josephnollasj My experience may not be accurate but every time I hear a Catholic espouse vile antisemitism, cries that every woman in church dresses like a prostitute, imagines strangers must be gay and then states the sex acts they do followed up by the next act, they are always Trad.

If Leo is upset his actions are being interpreted through a political prism against Trump, he could in fact just have Chris Hale's Bishop sit him down for a talk and say stop monetizing conflict against the Holy Father's wishes.
That would solve 90%.

@AndrewMFanco I'm pretty sure he admitted his struggles publicly once that stuff came out as well.
English
@CatholicSmark So he didn't "come out" per se but the selfie sharing was revealed
English
@AndrewMFanco Whenever the hubbub happened over Voris coming out. OFFICALLY. (As you know, was the worst kept secret in Detroit where everyone either knew or heard about it and just was mum)
English
@davidgmac9 @Netterville @josephnollasj I wouldn't say "not accurate" (we need not assume he's lying until proven otherwise) just that his experience does not and should not be the universal experience, especially in light of evidence to the contrary.
