The Truth about the the Conciliar Church
Pope Benedict is just as much a Modernist today as he was 50 years ago at the Council.
The Church is no better now than it was 20 years ago.

Open Letter from the Mexican Faithful to Bp. Fellay, in 2009!
History is a great teacher. And it teaches clearly that Modernist Rome hates Catholic Tradition, and that its goal is to convert all Catholics whatsoever to the New Conciliar Religion.
Not everyone believes this, however. In the last 20 years or so, no less than nine so-called "conservative Catholic groups" made practical agreements with Modernist Rome - trying to secure for themselves some special protection from that same Rome's destructive changes. How foolish to trust the very one that you are trying to protect yourself from! All nine have since learned their lesson: Rome promised them the world, signed an agreement, then reneged and destroyed them.
If you are not familiar with the sad history of these so-called "traditionalist" organizations, we beg you to take a few minutes and educate yourself now. We carefully document what has happened to them since they made practical agreements with unconverted Rome.
See the whole list (recommended), or choose one below:
- The Good Shepherd Institute
- The Fraternity (Society) of Saint Peter
- The Society of St. John Marie Vianney in Campos, Brazil (in Portuguese)
- The Institute of Christ the King
- The Institute of St. Phillip Neri
- Dom Gerard and the Benedictine Monastery of Le Barroux
- "The Redemptorists"
- "Mater Ecclesiae"
- The Sisters of the "Oasis de Jesus Sacerdote"
Welcome Fellow Traditional Catholics!The purpose of TrueTrad.com is to give you clear proof that (1) There are truly deep problems in the SSPX, and that (2) Those who are resisting those problems are indeed doing the right thing. The problems in the SSPX are so serious that they endanger us all, even if an agreement with modernist Rome were never made. The two most serious ones are the (a) liberalism of Bishop Fellay and his management team, and (b) the weakening of the SSPX in general. One of the clearest symptoms of these problems is the constant stream of poison coming from the SSPX. We urge you to start with the "Critical articles" below, or just browse the helpful drop-down menus above. God bless you! |
