[QUOTE="scolairebocht, post: 99351, member: 8"] Just on the question of the Catholic traditional movement, and why I would say it's holding its own rather than growing much: Unfortunately there are specific problems in each of the three wings of the movement that I described. The Indult Orders and masses have been hit over the head with a Papal edict called Traditionis Custodes which, if was to be literally or strictly applied, would pretty much wipe them all out. It hasn't happened as bad as that, but nonetheless this has had a very chilling effect on these masses and Orders. The main SSPX under current management, appears to adopt a softly softly approach to the powers that be clerical and lay. They always want to stay under the radar, and hence get little publicity and hence nobody hears about them and hence they don't grow. The SSPX Resistance, which is not a wealthy group and has to rely greatly on the generosity, even for house masses, of their congregation, feels under pressure as they are described as a kind of right wing holocaust denial cult fringe group. So they try to stay out of the limelight to exist at all, even not publicising their mass schedule - which is actually pretty impressive, expanding nearly all around Ireland - in order to be allowed exist at all. So again no publicity so it's hard to see how they can attract new adherents. Such are the problems that are out there! [/QUOTE]
