We are Traditional Catholics. We follow traditional ideas and we follow leaders who think according to tradition. New thinking can be bad – either in us and in our religious leaders.
Pope St. Pius X declared this truth in these words:
[T]he true friends of the people are neither revolutionaries nor innovators, but traditionalists.[1]
Archbishop Lefebvre declared this same truth in these words:
Our future is the past.[2]
Recently, the N-SSPX commented on Pope Francis’s false and politically-correct environmentalist manifesto, Laudato Si, praising his extreme ideas because they are original (i.e., new). Here are the N-SSPX’s words:
[F]or Francis, integral ecology is what would be the culmination of all social sciences, allowing a global approach – holistic or integral – to human nature. This thought, which has the merit of being original, remains in the pure natural domain.[3]
To praise an idea mainly because it is original is ridiculous. In our modern world, original ideas are more often bad than good, (e.g., The world was created by a big bang.) We should praise an idea only if it is true.
The N-SSPX will do or say practically anything to please Rome and to get a deal.
