havok579257 Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 i just don't see how people can be in support of the sspx on these boards and act like their seperation is with good hearts. they refuse catholic teching. they refused to listen to the pope and did the exact opposite of what he ordered them to do. how is that with a good heart. if the pope came to you and ordered you not to do something and you still did it, how could you honeslty think your heart is in the right place? how is this any different than other christians who have refused to submit to the pope and formed their own religion?

[/quote] I agree. I fail to see much difference between the pope telling the SSPX to stop ordaining people and Nancy Pelosi to stop supporting infanticide. Both persist in their error despite what their superior commands them to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 [quote name='USAirwaysIHS' timestamp='1310398828' post='2265744'] Except to complete the analogy, you would also have to walk over to the score board and throw another point there with your own two hands because, beaver dam it, you scored that point whether he agrees with you or not. [/quote] Right, because the SSPX have forced the entire Catholic world to accept their interpretation of the rules. Probably my hypothetical person stays on the plate arguing, then gets ejected from the game, as per the rules of the game. Still fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No. In your hypothetical, you'd have to go form your own league because you disagreed with the umpire, and then hire your own umpires in your own league that have to follow your interpretation of the rules. Sure, you'd still be playing baseball, just not in the Major Leagues anymore, with no chance of ever winning a pennant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIKolbe Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 don't.... it's pretty much a knock off, thinking they can do their own thing, failing miserably... oh, you meant the movie.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG45 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Yeah was going for the movie... I tried to read the SSPX site once; their fidelity didn't exactly leap out in my face from their FAQ. They actually have the closest Traditional Latin Mass to me I think, in Pittsburgh as I found out just yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] And then when somebody starts up a forum about MLB, you can go and start arguments about how your league is better, because your umpires are more faithful to the "true" sport of baseball, and even the spectators in your stands are more respectful toward the sport. You might even consider starting your own forum to support your own league... ... ... I'm not breaking any rules by being sarcastic, am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
