Catholic Culture: Vatican Lifts Decree of Excommunication of SSPX Bishops


In a letter to SSPX members announcing the decree, Bishop Fellay described the Pope's decision to lift the excommunications as "unilateral, benevolent, and courageous."

Bishop Fellay has used the code word "unilateral" which will be interpreted as "we didn't retreat an inch, they surrendered unconditionally." Furthermore, the Vatican appears to have conceded the original 1988 excommunications were its own error and this error is being reversed now.


SSPX views and Vatican views on Dignitatis Humanae and Nostra Aetate remain irreconcilable.
