Summary
In a bold defiance of Pope Leo the Fourteenth, the traditionalist Society of St. Pius X is set to consecrate four new bishops this Wednesday at their Swiss seminary—despite the Pope’s urgent warning that such an act constitutes a “sin of extreme gravity” and will automatically excommunicate all involved. The group, founded decades ago to resist Vatican II reforms, insists this move is essential to sustain their global ministry, citing a “state of necessity” to serve their 800+ churches and ordained priests. Though they face automatic excommunication and risk deepening the church’s schism, they remain resolute, calling the Pope’s plea a misunderstanding of their mission to preserve ancient rites and true Catholic tradition.
