Default Re: de asini umbra disceptare

"A pope supported by a minority of the college of bishops stands yet on firm ground supported by the Holy Spirit. And a pope supported by the vast majority of such bishops cannot be validly accused of heresy."

This only works when the Pope and Bishops are making de fide statements that have the necessary criteria to be infallible regardless of numbers of bishops. Any innovative pronouncements that are not part of the Deposit of Faith have no spiritual backing whatsoever. This would apply to some of the things stated in the Vatican Two Council, which the Popes themselves claimed was a pastoral council and not a council making de fide statements, hence opening itself up to errors. This despite the fact that the Pope and majority of bishops would agree on an erroneous point.

As for the SSPX, I told you before that going to the New Rite of Mass or the Indult Mass offered by the Society of St. Peter has nothing to do with the validity of the mass itself. It has everything to do with the bastardization of the new mass and the fact that those under the auspices of the Fraternity of St. Peter who say the Indult must agree with the bastardization of the New mass as told to them by their local diocesan bishop. Plus now they must even celebrate it too. That's why one should not attend the indult. It gives in to those who assume that choosing your rite of mass is merely a matter of "personal preference" and not an essential matter of Faith.
