"The Hawaii Six" were declared excommunicated "latae sententiae" by the well-known bishop of Honolulu, Ferrario. Third, the case of "the Hawaii Six," which made international news at the time, also in 1991, runs counter to your assertion. Second, Pope Benedict XVI did not lift excommunications on "the schismatic five," as the two consecrating bishops died in 1991, years before there even was a Pope Benedict XVI.
"When BXVI lifted the excommunications against the schismatic five."įirst, there were six people involved in the episcopal consecrations of 1988: four priests who were consecrated as bishops, and two consecrating bishops, Lefebvre and de Castro Mayer. A lot of priests do the same with Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi. "No priest there or bishop in my diocese has ever said that I was excommunicated or denied me any sacrament." When BXVI lifted the excommunications against the schismatic five, he DID NOT lift it against those sharing "formal adherence to the schism". More importantly, while confirming this excommunication did occur, JP II also noted the same for Lefebvre's followers: "Everyone should be aware that formal adherence to the schism is a grave offence against God and carries the penalty of excommunication decreed by the Church's law." The Pope (JPII) didn't excommunicate Lefebvre and his four flunkies. "No one in the SSPX, (apart from Lefebvre and the 4 bishops he consecrated), the over 600 priests, or lay people have ever been excommunicated by any Pope." "An institution on paper with no members is only an idea, an abstraction but it's not a real concrete social entity."
