I heard of Tony Alamo, his expensive celebrity jackets, and his sexual abuse. I am familiar with the trads and they detest Pope Francis so much they want to start a schism. There are some trads in communion with Rome, others who have sort of disaffiliated themselves (like the Society of St. Pius X.) Pope John Paul II excommunicated Marcel Lefebvre in 1988 when the Pope expressly forbade Lefebvre from consecrating bishops, and Lefebvre went ahead and did it any way. Then, there are people to the right of SSPX who belong to various sedevacantist groups, like Mel Gibson. They have their ow chapels and follow different “leaders.” I have thought Carlo Viganò might join one of these groups now that he is excommunicated by his own actions.
I was raised as a Vatican II Catholic and don’t apologize for it. I am not nostalgic for the Latin Mass, although I do know some Latin hymns we sing some times for Mass. I wouldn’t mind attending a Spanish language Mass because I could follow it too.
