Do you remember when I suggested that, if the SSPX continued to dictate terms to the Holy Father, one day his patience would end and they would wake up on the wrong side of the fence?
In an interview with German radio station NDR, Archbishop Müller, Prefect of the CDF, has stated that there will be no more talks with SSPX.
See the radio stations press statement HERE. The interview will be broadcast on October 6th.
Some quotes:
“This fraternity is no partner for negotiations for us, because there is no negotiating the faith.” (“Diese Bruderschaft ist für uns kein Verhandlungspartner, weil es über den Glauben keine Verhandlungen gibt.” )
“There can be no reductions in the Catholic faith, even more so as the second Vatican Council validly formulated it. The Second Vatican Council is not opposed to the tradition of the Church, possibly at most some incorrect interpretations of the Catholic faith”. (“Es gibt keine Ermäßigungen was den katholischen Glauben angeht, gerade wie er auch vom Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzil gültig formuliert worden ist. Das Zweite Vatikanische Konzil steht nicht im Gegensatz zur gesamtkirchlichen Tradition, allenfalls im Gegensatz zu mancher falschen Interpretation des katholischen Glaubens.” )
“I don’t think there will be any more new talks” (“Ich glaube, es gibt jetzt keine neuen Gespräche mehr”.)
Sad.
