What is that "Catholic & Roman church, always faithful to the traditions received from the apostles" they are referring to? It's not the one led by Leo XIV, otherwise they wouldn't need to be doing what they're doing.

@PeterKay966255 I think you're misunderstanding. I am in no wise claiming that the SSPX controversy is the same as the Jansenist controversy. I am simply saying that the SSPX is embracing some of the same errors as the Jansenists, and that is indeed so, even if some nuances are different.

"We hope and pray for peace and unity", writes Rorate Caeli after the SSPX consecrations. Yes, they do wish to be united with the apostates in the post-Catholic Vatican. It is telling. https://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2026/07/consummata-est-there-are-four-more.html
