I'm no sede, just a trad very worried about some of the things Pope Francis does and says, and the cardinals he is appointing.
I see hope though in the new generations, the thriving churches and people who now care to become priests are the traditionalists. It is our turn for a long march. Churches such as ours are the ones that are full of families and young ones, the ones actually producing future seminarians. This shall pass and we will emerge all the stronger and wiser.
The issue is there a trend on the right to secede, to migrate away and into the wilderness or to the new world, while the left is always content to stay and make their desired changes. We need to resist that urge and fight, for this is God's church. If you won't stay and fight for this, what will you stay and fight for?
Yes they're trying to shut down and sell my own local Latin mass church, though it is itself thriving. It is being fought by the priest. And if they do shut and sell it? Well, there's an sspx in the city too (it's a traditional catholic order that is regarded as borderline sede and irregular by many). This is what they are doing, driving the traditionalists and lovers of the latin mass away and further towards sedevacantism. I am determined to resist that temptation because we cannot cede the Catholic church to people like the Germans.
(a lot of the progressive and lgbt stuff is coming out of the churches in Germany. I don't know why it's always germany and france, but it is).
