It's the unhappy statement of the bishop mentioned in the article at the top.
What if SSPX is right and the mess we see around us in the mainstream Church is because of Vatican II? In other words, might it be a disaster for the Faith if SSPX splinters apart before the Holy See comes to its senses?

I don't see how.

Huh? I think you have this backwards.

There is no fear that SSPX was right. If it splinters, it goes the way of most schisms. Splintered or not, it is irrelevant to Roman Catholicism unless and until it submits in humility to His Holiness. Otherwise, it remains in outer darkness.
