Lemme tell you something… all the rest of the priests of the Catholic church have to have faculties! He just sort of did it. He said that if people go to them for confession, they are validly absolved. HERE The Pope didn’t write a specific document, in proper juridical form, clearly indicating that he granted faculties to those priests. I predict, I think, that the Pope will go in the direction of a unilateral recognition of the Fraternity, and he’ll do this more though the “de facto” route than through the legal, canonical law.“Ĭonsider how Pope Francis just sort of gave ghost faculties to the SSPX priests validly to absolve sins in sacramental confession for the Year of Mercy. I am not talking about what I want I’m talking about what I foresee. He has stared, and he will simply continue. He will do it on his own, in the sense of a recognition of the Fraternity. I think that he has started in this direction, that when he will see that there isn’t an understanding with the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I think that he will breeze past every doctrinal, theoretical, and practical condition, whatever it might be….

His Pope says to whomever wants to listen that we are Catholics, says and repeats that the Fraternity (SSPX) is Catholic, that we are Catholics, that he will never condemn us, and that it is necessary ‘to regulate our affair’. de Galarreta thinks that Pope Francis is going to recognize the SSPX unilaterally, apart from doctrinal and canonical considerations.


American friends, it takes an Argentinian to understand an Argentinian.īp. From everything that I have learned from S. de Galarreta, though born in Spain, grew up in Argentina. Alfonso de Galarreta’s view of Pope Francis’ view of the SSPX.įirst, note that Bp. If you read Italian, there is a fascinating piece at La Stampa by Marco Tosatti (who is not one of the traitorous Italian Vaticanisti) about SSPX Bp.
