"There are many reports they are mixing animalism and pagan rites with Catholic tradition, resulting in a blasphemous mix."

The source you offer says nothing to support your hatred for Traditional Roman Catholics, but you don't drop your venomous pen at this point. Now you write:

"Is the SSPX the same group which incarcerated evangelicals in Chiapas recently?"

May God have mercy on your lacking sense of spirituality.

Commanding His believers against bearing false witness is instructed by God no less than six times in the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible.

I think there's some confusion here. The sect that has mixed paganism and Catholicism in Mexico has been called "traditional Catholic" as well.

What else may be asked of somebody if they are indeed a sincere brother in Christ than to either deny or ascertain their perspective of actions ascribed to them which are obviously antiChristian?

I abhor the behavior of those who call themselves Traditional Catholics and imprisoned evangelical Christians and destroyed the buildings of other believers in Christ.

Catholics tend to declare there are no denominational differences amongst themselves, yet a contrived argument appears to arise defending actions of “Traditional Catholicism” in Chiapas, Mexico and even those between Orthodox and RCC members.

I’ll ask again. What difference is there between Catholics who support those actions in Mexico and your stance here, and even that of the Vatican, if indeed there is no difference amongst Catholics?
