  • In this episode I am joined by John Salza and Andrew Bartel to speak about the Society of Saint Pius X.
    Mr. Salza has been a practicing attorney for over 25 years and a widely acclaimed Catholic author and speaker for more than two decades. He lectures internationally about many topics including biblical apologetics, Freemasonry and Fatima. Salza has co-authored with Robert Siscoe the book True or False Pope - Refuting Sedevacantism and Other Modern Errors (2015), which is considered perhaps the most important contribution to Catholic scholarship on the question of a heretical Pope in the past 100 years. The book addresses errors primarily in the realm of ecclesiology, with a focus on Sedevacantism. Most recently, Salza has authored dozens of unprecedented articles exposing the errors of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and his Society of St. Pius X. Salza’s many articles and presentations on Sedevacantism and the Society of St. Pius X are available at his website:

    Andrew Bartel is a lay Dominican of the Province of the Most Holy Name of Jesus. He lives with his wife and their three children in Montana, where he works as a glazier. Andrew was a lifelong adherent of the Priestly Society of St. Pius X until 2013. He attended Foyer Saint Thomas d'Aquin in Avrillé, France, a boy's academy run by the Dominican community established by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre.
    Dom Dalmasso is a 2023 graduate from Holy Apostles College and Seminary with a Bachelor of Arts in Theology and philosophy. He grew up in the SSPX and in the FSSP. He was a Benedictine monk from early 2011 to late 2012 at Our Lady of Clear Creek Abbey in Oklahoma and was an active-duty United States Marine from August 2014 to August 2018. He runs the CZcams Show / Podcast The Logos Project, and is the editor-in-chief of The Ecclesia Blog. He is currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Dogmatic Theology at Holy Apostles.

    This interview is such a blessing. I call myself a "recovering trad." My mother and I used to bounce back and forth between an independent chapel and an SSPX chapel for several years until, after many years of prayer and discernment, I came back to full communion with the Catholic church in 2013 and have been back ever since.
    My mom came back about a year after me. For the longest time, I thought I was the only one to make such a move and I thought I was alone. It's such a blessing to see many more trads seeing the light and coming Home. It's such a blessing to know and see this. But even today there are many questions I have and struggles I deal with due to all the time I spent formed and raised in these rad trad circles. But I trust in the grace of God, that He will continue to lead me down the right path, preserve my faith and save my soul, as He has done with me all these years.
    God bless all three of you gentlemen, and all you do at the Logos Project.

      Trad Pinoy, Hi, Pinay here, too. I advise you to give up SSX.
      Ito ang sabi ni Papa Benedicto XVI:
      "The fact that the Society of Saint Pius X does not possess a canonical status in the Church is not, in the end, based on disciplinary but on doctrinal reasons. As long as the Society does not have a canonical status in the Church, its ministers do not exercise legitimate ministries in the Church.
      "In order to make this clear once again: UNTIL THE DOCTRINAL QUESTIONS ARE CLARIFIED, THE SOCIETY HAS NO CANONICAL STATUS IN THE CHURCH, and its ministers - even though they have been freed of the ecclesiastical penalty - do not legitimately exercise any ministry in the Church…
      "This will make it clear that the problems now to be addressed are essentially doctrinal in nature and concern primarily the acceptance of the Second Vatican Council and the post-conciliar magisterium of the Popes.
      "The Church’s teaching authority cannot be frozen in the year 1962 - this must be quite clear to the Society.
      www.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/letters/2009/documents/hf_ben-xvi_let_20090310_remissione-scomunica.html
      Here is what Pope St. John Paul II says in his Ecclesia Dei Adflicta:
      " In the present circumstances I wish especially to make an appeal both solemn and heartfelt, paternal and fraternal, to all those who until now have been linked in various ways to the movement of Archbishop Lefebvre, that they may fulfil the grave duty of remaining united to the Vicar of Christ in the unity of the Catholic Church, and of CEASING THEIR SUPPORT IN ANY WAY FOR THAT MOVEMENT. Everyone should be aware that formal
      ADHERENCE TO THE SCHISM IS A GRAVE OFFENCE AGAINST GOD and carries the penalty of excommunication decreed by the Church's law."
      www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/motu_proprio/documents/hf_jp-ii_motu-proprio_02071988_ecclesia-dei.html
      Pope Francis did give SSPX the faculty to hear confessions legally and validly, starting on the Jubilee Year of Mercy 2016 going forward. It does not contradict Canon Law because there have always been exceptional circumstances or instances of necessity in which the Church recognizes as valid and licit the reception of sacraments from priests who may be immoral, schismatic, irreligious, laicized, or even non-Catholic, provided their denominations have sacramental confessions. (Canons 844 §2 and 976).

      While Pope Francis' gesture of mercy shows an important precedent -- for the good of souls, the Church has the power to grant faculties even to priests who are not in good standing -- it is nevertheless NOT AN APPROVAL OF THEM - not an approval of SSPX, or their situation.
      As Francis states in his letter Misericordia et Misera: “For the pastoral benefit of these faithful (who attend churches officiated by the SSPX ) and trusting in the good will of their priests to strive with God’s HELP FOR THE RECOVERY OF FULL COMMUNION IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, I have personally decided to extend this faculty beyond the Jubilee Year, until further provisions are made, lest anyone be deprived of the sacramental sign of reconciliation through the Church’s pardon.”
      Very clearly, Pope Francis' motu proprio shows there is still the need for SSPX “to recover full communion in the Catholic Church.” Therefore, Pope Benedict's statement on SSPX's non-canonical status in the Church still stands.
      Again, in Pope Francis' letter, dated 7/16/2021, that accompanies Traditionis Custodes, he specifically mentioned SSPX to be in "schism." Here's the 2nd paragraph, fully quoted:
      " Most people understand the motives that prompted St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI to allow the use of the Roman Missal, promulgated by St. Pius V and edited by St. John XXIII in 1962, for the Eucharistic Sacrifice. The faculty - granted by the indult of the Congregation for Divine Worship in 1984 and confirmed by St. John Paul II in the Motu Proprio Ecclesia Dei in 1988 - was above all MOTIVATED BY THE DESIRE TO FOSTER THE HEALING OF THE SCHISM WITH THE MOVEMENT OF MONS. LEFEBVRE. With the ecclesial intention of restoring the unity of the Church, the Bishops were thus asked to accept with generosity the “just aspirations” of the faithful who requested the use of that Missal."
      www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_letters/documents/papa-francesco-lettera-ap_20161120_misericordia-et-misera.html
      About the SSPX faculty to officiate in Catholic weddings (Letter from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith dated March 27, 2017). It states that with the diocese's permission, an SSPX priest may officiate in a Catholic wedding but only if there is no diocesan or religious priest available, and the documents must be forwarded to the diocesan curia. It should be remembered, too, that in the sacrament of matrimony, the ministers are the couple themselves. A priest is only there to witness for the Church and receive the couple's vows.

      Other than those limited faculties,, sacraments of the SSPX are still illicit because, as Pope Benedict XVI writes, the Society has no canonical status and no legitimate ministry in the Church.
      People, including bishops, who say SSPX is not in schism or has reconciled with the Church, should be able to produce a document similar to Pope John Paul II's letter welcoming the SSPX in Campos, Brazil (now the Union of St. John Mary Vianney) into the fold, otherwise they should not be believed. Here's the link to Pope JPII letter:

    The reason why I left the SSPX was because of their schismatic attitude toward the Novus Ordo. Very simply put, no one has the authority to tell a Catholic which form of the Mass he can go to EXCEPT the Church. The Church officially promulgated it therefore you can go and no one can tell you otherwise.

His conclusion was that, even after experiencing a lot of garbage in the NO, he'd rather attend a Novus Ordo mass than an SSPX mass, simply because of the fact that an SSPX mass is illicit, no matter how you spin it. I think that NO parishioners have a much better case for advising that people don't attend SSPX chapels than the other way around.

    One thing I notice about these discussion that are left out is the doctrine of resisting popes when they endanger the faith. You don’t mention that these popes are endangering the faith and that Archbishop Lefebvre resisted their bad actions. The discussion revolves around him resisting the pope, iyou don’t talk about the doctrine of resisting the popes and why that does not apply in these situations

      Abp Lefebvre did not resist a specific doctrine that Paul VI promoted, he engaged in an act of juridical disobedience (which he did in the name of resisting an ecumenical council). Furthermore, Lefebvre DID in fact hold to and promote error and heretical teachings as we have extensively shown in our video on the errors of Lefebvre.

    I respect John Big time . It takes tremendous integrity , courage, and humility to change a position . I was a sedevacantist for 40 years (two different forms). Over the years The red flags started to pile up . Prompted by Gods Grace , I began to re-examine my position , on examination, one by one ,, the sede arguments fell apart , after 3 years of agonizing study and prayer over the sede issiue . , it became clear that I could no longer continue as a sede . However, I was so fearful to leave , I didn’t know were else to go or who else to trust .I finally got John Salza s book . it confirmed everything I had found . And so much more . Afterre reading his work , I no longer could go to sede mass . His book is so well done VERY detailed. It addressed all the various arguments. I owe a big thank you to John and Robert . They put an enormous . amount of work into the book .
    After I read the book , I wanted to switch to the SSPX, BUT , the points he made in the book seemed to also apply to the SSPX, after agonizing prayer for help (thank you blessed mother). I received a clear sing that lead me to the FSSP. I was formally received in to the Church over 3 years ago . Followed by 8 members of my family. Big thank you to John and Robert.!!!!

    Test what these men say. First error: That the Sspx were formed for the laity. The Sspx were formed in order to have well formed priests. It is a priestly society! Research every statement that they make! Take the TLM missal (1955 or 1969) and compare the words of the mass to the 1969 novus ordo missal! Check what has been left out! Take the Novus Ordo 1969 missal and compare each Eucharistic Prayer 1 to 4 with the same Eucharistic Prayers in the 2011 Novus Ordo Missal. Yes! Pope Benedict changed the mass!!! Nobody was told! What were his reasons? Suddenly the mass of 1969 (which lacked the sacrificial element, even though the word sacrifice was cleverly used in the text), the mass in the 2011 edition regained the words that embraced the sacrificial elements!Another error in this talk: Archbishop Lefebvre never celebrated the New Mass.
    St Athanasius was in exactly the same position as the Archbishop. Nearly the whole of Christiandom had taken on the heresy of Arianism. He alone (St Athanasius) stood up against it.(He said "We have The Faith, they have The Buildings"......they also had the Pope). Today we have multiple heresies playing out at the same time. In order to be Catholic you have to have The Catholic Faith. Pull out your grandparents old Catechism and Holy books. Compare them to what is being preached today. It is not the same teaching! Buy yourselves Fr Leonard Goffines book "The Churches year", written in 1880. The faith being taught today is not the same as it was in 1880! Why??? The Pope and the Bishops are Apostolic BUT THEIR TEACHINGS ARE NOT. They are NEW, since Vatican ll. Pope John Paul ll called it The New Evangelization! St Paul teaches that if an Angel should tell you anything different to what I tell you then let him be Anathema. The Messages of Our Lady of Good Success, La Salette and Fatima tell a very frightening story. Access The Fatima Center, Family Catholic News, Defeat Modernism to learn the History of what has taken place at Vatican ll. Many prophecies warn us that the clergy are leading many souls to hell. Pope John Paul ll was involved with the prayer meeting at Assisi, as did Pope Benedict XVl do similar meetings, as is Pope Francis with Pachamama and his smudging ceremonies. They are marching us to paganism and idolatry and to hell. Do not follow like Sheep. It is time to put on your thinking caps. Our Lady appeared to St Bernadette as Our Lady of Mount Carmel at her last appearance. At the Miracle of The Sun on 13 Oct 1917, whilst the 70 000 strong crowd witnessed the sun gyrating and behaving against nature, the 3 Children saw 3 different tableaus. The last one was of Our Lady of Mount Carmel holding out the brown scapular. Rev (Fr) Howard Rafferty interviewed Sr Lucia in 1950. She made it clear to him that Our Lady wants us to pray The daily Rosary AND wear The Brown Scapular (this involves being Consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart). The two are inseparable. How come the majority of Catholics have never heard this before?
    As we can see Pope Francis is desperately trying to Snuff out The Traditional Latin Mass. What exactly is soo dangerous about this Mass? Pope Benedict XVl tried to tell us that it was a Continuity of Tradition but yet Pope Francis flatly denied this. Pope Francis is correct. The New theology is not a continuity. It is New! That is why Pope Francis wants to snuff out The TLM. The Theology of the TLM does not match the theology of The Novus Ordo mass. Don't be deceived. God bless you all and Mother Mary protect you.

      @@tradpinoy There are thousands of bishops/diocese in the world, and since Traditionus Custodus only a handful have done anything to suppress the traditional mass. Most bishops/diocese did nothing. If you're in that 10% of diocese where they suppress the traditional rite, you should move to a diocese where the traditional rite is allowed (over 90% of diocese.)
      I live in Green Bay, Wisconsin and I'm getting more and more annoyed with the SSPX. I go to an ICK parish which has latin mass once or twice a day and three times on Sunday, same with Confession. And yet 10 miles away there is also an SSPX chapel. Why? These people can't say they are being surpressed when 10 miles away there is an ICK parish offering the latin rite 10+ times a week.

I know very well that many defend themselves by boasting: “They are so corrupt, and work all manner of evil!” But God has commanded that, even if the priests, the pastors, and Christ-on-earth were incarnate devils, we be obedient and subject to them, not for their sakes, but for the sake of God, and out of obedience to Him.

    How far does the pope's jurisdiction extend regarding the liturgy and public prayers of the church? (I.e. suppressing the Latin mass) I am of the opinion that while the pope can not change anything of the matter or form of the sacraments, nor abolish the mass outright, nor bind priests to commit sacrilege, nor bind priests to profess infallibly condemned propositions, nor bind the faithful to worship pagan gods; the Pope can refuse to police the liturgy such that all of the above occur at the local level. Moreover, the pope can modify the public prayer of the church as much as he wills so long as he does not cross the aforesaid limits. If the pope could be lawfully resisted while still staying within these limits, then the judgement about what should be included in the mass would rest on the private judgment of the individual: the individual could veto the judgment of the pope even if the pope is not commanding him to sin per se.

    With how many times the guy's flip flopped, I'm anticipating a 2033 video title: "John Salza - Why I left Catholicism behind and returned to freemasonry" at this rate. (Relax, I merely jest).
    I've listened to John for a while back in the early 2010's. Really smart guy. I have all of his books. Seeing the slow changes he's made over the years is a little sad but it is what it is. It's not sad because of any contention I have with what he says since I think the crisis is so murky, it's hard to navigate most of the time, but because he seems troubled to me. It sort of reminds me of a guy I knew who went to an sspx seminary but then got a very scrupulous conscience and wondered about the validity of his confessions, etc., at which point he ghosted. I think that's probably what we're seeing here.
    It's sort of like a observation I've made about sedevacantism back in the late 2000's - if you spend enough time on the internet with the intent of getting scandalized about the crisis and complaining about it all the time, most people will inevitably go down that path. I think with Salza we're seeing the reverse sort of. Spending years and years going hard at the sedes, using the same quick online rebuttals and long drawn out arguments with them (essentially using their own tactics against them), he's become hypersensitive about the crisis and the state of his soul, realizing by being an sspx adherent he was probably playing with fire, so he went the opposite extreme and went down the ecclesia dei route.
    Me personally, I have no gripes with either the ecclesia dei groups or the sspx. To me, both have more faults more than most care to admit. And I do agree, discouraging the faithful from going to ecclesia dei Masses is taking it too far, but I also think both dona tremendous good for the Church. One day with the intervention of Divine Providence, this whole thing will be sorted out.

      Point is, if we are to judge things by “flip flopping “ and suspicion, That is a double edged sword that’s going to cut both ways . Instead I suggest, we deal with the ideas and arguments of our opponents.

      Nope but that is an abuse and therefore a personal sin on their part. The Church cannot proscribe a religious practice or rite which is harmful to the Faith. According to Vatican I, it’s heretical to believe otherwise.

      @@gerardgarcia7127 There is no such thing as the "Novus Ordo Church." The term "novus ordo" comes from a quote by Pope St Paul VI in reference to the new order of mass found in the 1970 missal. Applying that term to the entire Church is incongruous and inappropriate. If the Catholic Church isn't the Church of Christ anymore, then where is it? Keep in mind that if you imply it is some invisible community of trads or something like that then you've fallen into protestantism. That's where that notion comes from. Also if my bishop were to ban the 1962 missal (not the Latin mass since those two aren't synonymous) I'd petition for its return but submit to his decision.

I don’t know his interior motives and it’s not my state of life to make judgments upon anyone, let alone the supreme Roman pontiff, the patriarch of the west, the universal pastor, the first amongst equals, and the servants of servants, His holiness, Pope Francis. I say that with all the pomp and pageantry to convey my that I respect him like a son respects his father. Sometimes ive been embarrassed of my parents and that is regrettably uncomfortable. I’ve gotten to meet my dad, Bill, once. In this nearly 5 year time period, I haven’t been impressed, to say the least with his attempts to make amends, do right by me, or build a relationship. But you know what?! Who am I to demand so much action on his part? Why does he have to submit to my will and exceptions? Shouldn’t it be the other way around? I might not understand his actions, or even agree with his decisions, at the end of the day he is my father and his office is due my complete submission. I might not like the man or his actions but I must pray for him truly as my daddy. I get focused on the sick scandal and it takes my gaze from Christ. I get ill focusing on the illness. My anger isn’t justified and I kid myself into thinking it’s righteous anger. That I’m even qualified is utterly silly. Judgment is for God to make. I’m limited to my limited personal research, excited disposition, and poor digestion. Who cares if I’m on the ‘right side’ of this debate - if I just become an annoying cymbal. *Clash* It’s from the enemy to apply political concepts and terminology to matters of the church and the spiritual realm. The church is an organism not simply or plainly a human political structure ; she is a living breathing body that can become disfigured, unrecognizable (like our Lord in his passion) by the betrayal and torture of the very people Christ so dearly thirsts to save. From my personal experience, I only know of one sinner to ever have existed: ME. This is because, I’ve only ever been inside my own head and heart. Maybe I know a little somewhat of my own wretchedness but I know absolutely nothing of the motives and or culpability of others… and so therefore I must give them the benefit of the doubt and excuse them as best as I can in true Christian charity. We love to paint history as good vs evil. Heroes vs villains. Hell I’ve been both and will continue to play both roles until He heals me. We cast our own perception in these roles of clear cut, defined them vs us. But real stories are more complex than those 2D vanilla developments. We are more complicated than that, with much more nuanced subjective aspects. Theosis is simple, not easy.

Likewise, the Church may be almost unrecognizable at times, but the structure of the Church (the Pope and bishops in the order of the hierarchy) will always remain intact, and we must follow them and put our trust in Christ.

So what if people who are not in the hierarchy (by the way, Saint Athanasius was also excommunicated in his day) say the SSPX is in schism.... We have a crisis in the Church because of the hierarchy. When you have hardly any good shepards to lead you, you have to follow the hierarchy that is preserving the traditional faith. And why was John Salza saying that he wasn't attending the SSPX for doctrinal and liturgical reasons. That is one reason you DO attend the mass. Furthermore, he was once a mason. I don't feel I can trust his opinion. He could possibly still be a mason. Maybe he needs to be doing another type of work besides giving his opinion.

    We have Pope Frantic happily promoting the bogus Covidocracy Plandemic and ordering death jabs for his staff, and concerning the issue of sodomy (both within and outside his ranks, he shrugs his shoulders. "Who am I to judge?"
    But you guys sound as though we are blessed by St Linus happily reigning.
    Well, enjoy arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Enjoy hyperinflation, lawlessness, and, if we're lucky, just a merciful and quick nculear annihilation at the onset of WW3.
    Hope you are praying your rosary and wearing your scapular like your life depends on it, because it sure does.

      That's quite a negative outlook you have there, my friend. Why not rejoice that you are part of Holy Mother Church, be thankful that you are a member of the Mystical Body, and be grateful to live in today's day and age when you can suffer with the church and assist her through these trials? Bemoaning the current state of things does not help, but offering your struggles certainly does.

      I don't look at the truth as being a "negative outlook". Acknowledging the truth is the first step to true peace. Peace is the tranquility of order. A heart rooted in the truth will always be at peace even when the storm tosses the boat about the waves of the sea.

      Cardinal Burke told Michael Voris when the latter asked if the SSPX was in schism... "Absolutely!" But Cardinal Ratzinger told six people in Hawaii that they could receive the sacraments in good conscience at an SSPX chapel. So which is it? Most bishops will tell a person that "the SSPX is not in full communion with the Catholic Church", which implies there is such a thing as "partial communion". Go ask your bishop. I would bet my bottom dollar you will not get a straight answer, unless he is some papal choirboy like Cardinal Cupich.
      As for Baptism of Desire- I firmly believe in it as it was upheld by the Church Fathers and the Council of Trent, as opposed to the idea of the "Noble Pagan" that was condemned by the Fathers but upheld by Rahner and Pius XII. One MUST have supernatural faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ in order to attain the Beatific Vision.

      You are simply wrong. When I was in Dickinson TX the local bishop used to send people that wanted the Traditional Mass to the SSPX. In many places also in the '90's this was also the case. Hostility to the SSPX varied wildly from diocese to diocese.
      If there was a clear cut pronouncement that the SSPX was in schism, people could point to it, and that would be that.
      Pope JP2 said that Archbishop Lefebvre was excommunicated by virtue of canon law- he never exercised his direct pontifical authority to excommunicate either Archbishop Lefebvre, Castro de meyer, or Felley, Williamson, Tisserant, or Galeleta. Likewise, when Bishop Rifan was consecrated, there was nary an outcry.
      As for the Hawaii affair, Ratzingers letter speaks for itself. It is mushy and arcane, to be sure, but nowhere did it state that any of the accused had committed a grave canonical offense.
      The bottom line is that the Counciliar Church has become like NASA- Never a Straight answer.

    Bunch of modernist nonsense. Salza is way off base. First of all, the SSPX affirms the validity of the NOM. But you know who does not? The 2/3 of NOM attendees in the US, who reject transubstantiation. Second, Salza seems to be claiming that the SSPX does not offer a valid mass. If he is actually claiming that, then he is wrong, and should be ignored.

      I know this "modernist nonsense" may challenge some of your views if you have grown up in SSPX culture, but if you take a step back and are willing to look at it objectively instead of through the lens of trad talking points you've been told, it really makes a lot of sense. I know because I've been there. Please keep an open mind to these things, I promise it will be helpful if you allow it to be.

But their actions from 1988 onward simply are not justified, no matter how much you try to fit all the canonical square pegs into round holes.
      Also, if you have never attended one of their Masses, I would urge you to reconsider before jumping to their defense. I know it looks like a utopia from the outside, but once you've been entrenched in their culture for a number of years, you get a real glimpse behind the curtain and it is quite ugly.
