Oh really.
I picked up a pamphlet at Mass last Sunday at the SSPX chapel that was printed by the Arcadia, CA chapel that FORMERLY WAS where he attended Mass.
Let me review it before I start letting off steam.
I read the same pamphlet. Remember the secular news people rarely get all the facts straight when writing about religion, let alone traditional Catholics.
"The priests and traditions of the society -- which has churches worldwide and claims actor and "The Passion of the Christ" director Mel Gibson as a member -- are not recognized by the Vatican or Pope John Paul II."
To repeat what I have posted several times before:
Mel Gibson is not a member of SSPX! He only supports independent priests validly ordained by Pius XII bishops. MG knows all about SSPX duplicity and is not allied with false opposition.
