Ite Missa THE LOGO The grey letters stand for the worldwide fraternal society which is subordinate to the Catholic Faith and the content of all publications. The content - the Faith and the patron saint - is more important than the fraternal society. The logo becomes more easily readable due to the difference in grey tones. The black letters stand for the organization itself. The design seeks to express something of the organization’s core values, showing ourselves fully “in the light”.

  • Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right
    “Artisans … for Antichrist”: Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right Mark Weitzman* The Israeli historian, Israel J. Yuval, recently wrote: The Christian-Jewish debate that started nineteen hundred years ago, in our day came to a conciliatory close. … In one fell swoop, the anti-Jewish position of Christianity became reprehensible and illegitimate. … Ours is thus the first generation of scholars that can and may discuss the Christian-Jewish debate from a certain remove … a post- polemical age.1 This appraisal helped spur Yuval to write his recent controversial book Two Nations in Your Womb: Perceptions of Jews and Christians in late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Yuval based his optimistic assessment on the strength of the reforms in Catholicism that stemmed from the adoption by the Second Vatican Council in 1965 of the document known as Nostra Aetate. Nostra Aetate in Michael Phayer’s words, was the “revolution- ary” document that signified “the Catholic church’s reversal of its 2,000 year tradition of antisemitism.”2 Yet recent events in the relationship between Catholics and Jews could well cause one to wonder about the optimism inherent in Yuval’s pronouncement. For, while the established Catholic Church is still officially committed to the teachings of Nostra Aetate, the opponents of that document and of “modernity” in general have continued their fight and appear to have gained, if not a foothold, at least a hearing in the Vatican today. And, since in the view of these radical Catholic traditionalists “[i]nternational Judaism wants to radically defeat Christianity and to be its substitute” using tools like the Free- * Director of Government Affairs, Simon Wiesenthal Center.

  • The Crux of the Matter (1984)
    The Crux of the Matter (1984) by Most Rev. Donald J. Sanborn Why an April ’83 crisis happened in SSPX, and why it keeps on happening. BEWILDERED is probably the best word to describe the reaction of the faithful to the April break-up of the Society. My impres- sion, even now, is that the faithful who have read the positions of both sides are clear in their minds about the particular issues, but still do not understand just how the whole dispute started. Their impression of the Society, at least in the Northeast District, was one of harmony, steady growth, and optimism. By the Spring of 1983, the seminary had achieved its peak in growth rate, both from the point of view of new vocations and physical expansion. The laity were enthusiastic and forward-looking; people were confident that their spiritual needs would be met by the ever-expanding and apparently trouble-free Society of Saint Pius X. December, 1982, brought in $60,000 to the Seminary building fund; January $50,000. To my disbelief, it seemed that we were going to get through the first part of our contract with- out having to borrow a cent. Never had there been such a surge in new vocations; never had it looked so good for the Fall semes- ter. Had things been normal this past year, I estimate that we would have accepted 20 to 25 new candidates. Then disaster struck, like the tornado that descends swiftly but silently from the somber, sultry cloud upon its unsuspecting victims. Accusations were hurled, priests were thrown out on to the street, seminarians left.

  • Concerning an SSPX Dossier on Sedevacantism
    CONCERNING A SSPX DOSSIER ON SEDEVACANTISM, BY REV. DOMINIQUE BOULET, SSPX. by John Lane “The Society admits the possibility of discussion regarding whatever explanation it may advance with regard to the nature of John Paul II's authority.” (Sedevacantism: A False Solution to a Real Problem, Angelus Press, Kansas, 2003, p. 22) This is a step-by-step consideration and refutation of the little book by Fr. Dominique Boulet of the SSPX, entitled, Sedevacantism. It is presented in the spirit of fraternal charity, in acceptance of the invitation extended by the priests of the Italian District of the SSPX in 2003, to discuss the “problem of the Pope.” Our first task is to say what the sedevacantist thesis actually is. If we were to summarise Archbishop Lefebvre’s position, we could describe it as a minimalist approach to the mystery of this crisis. That is, he combined two principles: 1. We must obey God rather than men. It is licit to resist a superior who commands something sinful, because it is never lawful to sin for any reason. 2. We must not tempt God by taking extraordinary actions unless absolutely necessary. Thus St. Thomas More waited until after he was condemned to death before openly criticising the schismatic actions of Henry VIII. (And some traditionalists would doubtless have accused More of liberalism for this silence!) If I were to define the sedevacantist thesis, I would also say that I agree that we must be minimalist, and thus be prepared to leave mysteries as mysteries if there are no clear answers, and we must be humble, and admit that we do not necessarily have the complete solution to every problem.

  • Modern Alternative Popes*
    Modern Alternative Popes* Magnus Lundberg Uppsala University The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) is arguably the most important event in modern Catholicism, and a major act on the twentieth-century religious scene at large. On several points, the conciliar fathers made changes in how the Catholic Church perceived the modern world. The language in the decrees was different from earlier councils’, and the bishops opened up for ecumenism and interreligious dialogue, seeing at least “seeds of truth” in other religious traditions. The conciliar fathers also voted in favour of liberty of religion, as meaning something more than the right to practise Catholic faith. A very concrete effect of the Council was the introduction of the New Mass Order (Novus Ordo Missae) in 1969 that replaced the traditional Roman rite, decreed by Pius V in 1570. Apart from changes in content, under normal circumstances, the new mass should be read in the vernacular, not in Latin as before. Though many Catholics welcomed the reforms of Vatican II, many did not. In the period just after the end of the Council, large numbers of priests and nuns were laicized, few new priest candidates entered the seminaries, and many laypeople did not recognize the church and the liturgy, which they had grown up with. In the post- conciliar era, there developed several traditionalist groups that criticized the reforms and in particular the introduction of the Novus Ordo. Their criticism could be more or less radical, and more or less activist. Many stayed in their parishes and attended mass there, but remained faithful to traditional forms of devotions and paid much attention to modern Marian apparitions.

  • „Principele Scortesco”. Cine Era? (Cu O Incursiune În Peisajul Catolic Tradiţionalist Din Apus)
    1 Un român exilat misterios: „Principele Scortesco”. Cine era? (cu o incursiune în peisajul catolic tradiţionalist din Apus) P. dr. Remus Mircea Birtz, OBSS Summary This study presents some data about the Romanian Traditional Catholic writers, the painter Paul Scorţescu / Scortesco / Scortzesco (1893, Yassy – 1976, Paris), his brother the diplomatic minister Theodor Scorţescu / Scortzesco (1895, Yassy – 1979, Buenos-Aires), known in the Romanian literature, and Miss Myra Davidoglou (1923, Bucharest – 2001, France) a graphic artist too. Some historical and genealogical data about the Scortzesco Moldavian-Romanian noble family are given, and a short landscape of the Traditional Catholic Resistance. It is proven that the well-known statement of Paul Scortzesco about the 1963 Conclave cannot be true, however without denying the election of Cardinal Giuseppe Siri as Pope (Gregory XVII) in the 1958 Conclave. Some biographical data about the Scortzescos can and must be certainly corrected, when new informations from the yet unknown Romanian Exile Culture will be available. Key words: Paul Scorţescu / Scortesco / Scortzesco (1893-1976), Theodor Scorţescu / Scortzesco (1895-1979), Myra Davidoglou (1923-2001), Cardinal Giuseppe Siri (Gregory XVII), Roman Catholic Resistance, Sedevacantism, Romanian Exile. N.B. Studiul a fost prezentat la Simpozionul De la elitele Securităţii la securitatea elitelor organizat de Universitatea Babeş-Bolyai, în 31.III. – 1.IV. 2017, distinsă cu Premiul I, fiind aşteptată publicarea lui în volumul omonim, aflat sub tipar.
