Conservative US bishop calls FSSPX just another Protestant sect: In a YouTube video posted on 13 July, conservative Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield in Illinois, USA, said that the main problem with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X is their defiance of papal authority. 'By disobeying the Pope and rejecting the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X has essentially become another Protestant sect that believes it is right and the Pope is wrong.'

Fiction, but not entirely. A film starring Trevor Howard and Martin Sheen. Don't miss it: For the liturgical year of 1970, Paul VI instituted the New Mass. However, on a remote Irish island, some monks continued to pray the Tridentine Mass. When the faithful learned of this, they began from over the world to attend Sunday Mass, which was broadcast on television. This brought the matter to the attention of Vatican authorities, who sent an official to convince the monks that they could not continue on this path.
