Dijon Archbishop Roland Minnerath is denigrating the Fraternity of Saint Peter (FSSP) to justify their unjust eviction from his archdiocese.
In an unsigned June 17 statement, Minnerath recalled that the first FSSP-priest was received into Dijon Archdiocese in 1998 with the – illegal – clause that he had to co-preside “from time to time” in the New Rite so that there would be “no watertight separation” between the “two rites.” Presenting “co-presiding” as a sign of unity is inadmissible because every priest is free to co-preside or not.
Minnerath who came to Dijon in 2004, writes that in 2007, when the first FSSP-priest left, the archdiocese planned to staff its Old Rite church with diocesan priests, but this plan failed, so the FSSP was allowed to send another priest, Father Xavier Garban, again with the illegal condition that he had to co-preside in the New Rite which he did.
When Garban was appointed elsewhere in 2010, the Archdiocese asked again illegaly for an FSSP-priest willing to …More

Canon 902 of the Code of Canon Law states that no one can be forced to concelebrate. Moreover, every priest has the right to pray the Roman Rite Mass aka TLM, and the lay faithful also have a right to access and assist. The Mass of Paul VI is not mandatory.

Take a good look, ladies and gentlemen, this is weaponized Canon Law at its finest and used to devastating effect against falsehood. Well done, philosopher

He brought in FSSP priests who won't celebrate the Novus Ordo Mass, now he dumps 'em because they won't celebrate the Novus Ordo Mass. :P

Illustratief voor de huidige situatie, de Rooms Katholieke kerk voelt zich bedreigt door Traditionele Rooms Katholieke gelovigen die het Universele Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieke geloof belijden en vasthouden aan de Tridentijnse Heilige Mis met haar zuivere Transsubstantiatie. Blijkbaar is het Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieke geloof het ware geloof, anders hoefde de Roms Katholieke kerk zich niet bedreigt te voelen. De moderne liturgie, zonder correcte Transsubstantiatie, heeft blijkbaar niet de mystieke context van het ware Rooms Katholieke geloof. Arme Rooms Katholieke kerk die steeds sneller leegloopt en zich bedreigt voelt door het ware Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieke geloof dat steeds meer nieuwe gelovigen aantrekt. In Frankrijk hebben de Tridentijnse Rooms Katholieken al meer Priesterstudenten dan de officiële Rooms Katholieke kerk.
