As the renovationists clearly lose their grip on the Church, they grasp more tightly. Jesus did not grasp but emptied himself.

As the renovationists clearly lose their grip on the Church, they grasp more tightly. Jesus did not grasp but emptied himself.
Vatican approval for priests to celebrate the Extraordinary Form. Vatican approval for bishops to approve lay associations. Vatican disapproval of a bishop for making decisions about where to send seminarians. Vatican approval of Mass times in the Church bulletin. Papal disaprobation of lace surplices. We only can take so much of it seriously. Each statement carries less weight.
These responses seem a bit uncharitable. It might be better to let some comments go un-responded, if you can find the grace to assume the commenter's intentions are for the good of the Church. (This principle would particularly apply in the case of the commenter being, you know, an *ordained disciple of Christ*.)
I won't be part of any schism. But things are falling apart. You can comment "based pope" on every article but it won't change the reality. Things are falling apart and he talking about lace.
based on the definition of the word "schism", it seems that if every subsequent statement of Pope Francis carries less and less weight in your opinion, that might at some point constitute the refusal of submission to the Roman pontiff. I guess we'll have to wait and see whether he authoritatively commands or teaches something that you cannot in conscience obey or believe

oh yeah, it's schism time my trad brothers
It is indeed. As the statements of the pope carry less and less weight, the time of schism, both left and right, will soon be upon us.
not sure if your new bishop will be on the same side of the schism as you. he's been quite vocal about "standing with Pope Francis"

I always assume my interlocutors think they are acting for the good of the Church. it is my intention to disabuse them of that notion
What is for the good of the Church?
