This freedom that is left to them is the guarantee of the one left to us, after the canonical recognition. Today, we are not the only ones to criticize the excesses. He continued his efforts even after the consecrations, although, in his realism he had little hope of success. * Ninth reasonДЄrchbishop Lefebvre, moreover, has always sought a canonical solution for the SSPX. It is necessary to reach a peace with the moderates, to reinvigorate in the Church the principles of Tradition, and that happens necessarily with a canonical solution. Likewise in the crisis of the Church: after the Council, it was important to distance oneself, as Archbishop Lefebvre did, to show our disapproval of certain novelties. Pius X, as famous for his reforms as for his attachment to principles. And on this road of pragmatism, with his back to isolation, one of the pioneers is St. Thus, the popes of the late 19th and early 20th century gave the example of appeasement with secular countries to reinvigorate an influence of the Church. вЂњ He laid the foundation for an honorable alliance,вЂќ says his biographer (Fr Dal Gal), вЂњ between the members most representative of the Catholic party and those of a moderate party, an alliance contracted under the sign of the most ample trust.вЂќ There was total victory. In the following elections, Cardinal Sarto resolved to change the situation. Indeed, the anti-clerical forces, taking advantage of the disunity of their opponents, had seized power in Venice. Moreover, with reason, our enemies (the modernists and others) oppose it: this is a sign that it would be a good thing.

He tells to whoever wants to hear that we are Catholics. It is not through ecumenism that the Pope comes to us, but as Catholics.

It is certainly possible to consecrate without a pontifical mandate, in case of emergency, but if it is possible to consecrate bishops with Rome, this permission must be sought. In the coming years, we will urgently need new bishops. We must go in this direction and look to restore us to a normal situation. * Third reasonДЄny abnormal situation leads in itself to normalization. This could counterbalance the influence of the progressives.

Do we have the right, therefore, to refuse a recognition and to keep for ourselves all these treasures? * Second reasonДЄmong the conservatives, we have sympathizers вЂ“ even some cardinals вЂ“ some of whom need our help. Finally, he sees that everything falls apart, while we on the contrary represent a living force for the Church. He appreciates that we are moving towards the вЂњexistential peripheries,вЂќ that is to say, that we help souls wherever they are, which goes in the direction of his program.

Or, with good reason, the pope sees in the SSPX a force that can have a part in the new evangelization demanded from all corners.

Indeed, if the Roman authorities, and especially the pope himself, call us to join our efforts to re-christianize society, we cannot do anything but rejoice in it, while ensuring that we remain as we are.
