Dear Zviadist,

"There is still the matter of explicitly lifting the censure of those who were 'formally schismatic'. The Vatican did not do so. You cannot deny reality."

It is you who deny reality. Even your beloved SSPX reports, via Mr. Fellay:

"The censures 'possibly incurred' (sic) will be lifted."

Other reports record that the excommunication was lifted.

The Campos priests, themselves, in their August 2001 letter to the Holy Father, explicitly admit that they have been "juridically excluded" from the Catholic Church, and they apologize for any actions on their part which led to that (you can look up the letter for yourself - it can be readily googled - you should read it yourself, the humility of these priests in admitting all error obviously moved our Holy Father to deal with them in leniency and mercy).

But your post is still quite funny. Having been shown that the Campos folks were outside of the Church, and that your own citation of being "received into full communion" proved that you were wrong to assert that they were outside the Church, now you drop that battle, having been defeated, and take up the next. Without so much as a la-de-da. LOL.

Your chutzpah is admirable.

correction:

"proved that you were wrong to assert that they were outside the Church"

should be:

"proved that you were wrong to assert that they were NOT outside the Church"

Sorry. ;-)
