The Catholic Church has excommunicated the SSPX. Not sure why most news outlets spin this as "Vatican excommunicates six bishops". Ahem, no, read the rest of the declaration for crying out loud. Everyone connected to the SSPX, including lay people, are excommunicated. Since the SSPX is a priestly association, this presumably means that lay *sympathizers* of the group are also to be cast out. How are they identified? Perhaps by regular attendance at an SSPX chapel. Do the Jesuits keep lists?
So it´s not six people. It´s more like 60,000 people. Or whatever the number might be.
I assume the (rather fickle) love affair between conservatives and Pope Leo is definitely over now. Not that I care, tbh. SSPX aren´t exactly my guys. Either.
