Pour en remettre une couche
Publié le 23 Janvier 2009
Le Supérieur de District de la FSSPX d’Allemagne, l’abbé Franz Schmidberger (ancien supérieur général de la FSSPX) en réponse à l’article discriminatoire paru dans Der Spiegel N°4/2009 pp. 32-332,
affirme ce qui suit :
L’assertion selon laquelle les Juifs d’aujourd’hui portent la faute de leurs pères doit être limitée aux Juifs qui approuvent la mise à mort de Jésus-Christ. Elle est inexacte dans les généralisations citées.
Jésus-Christ, Dieu fait homme est pour les Juifs aussi le Rédempteur et la seule Voie pour le Salut : « Je suis le Chemin, la Vérité et la Vie : personne ne peut aller au Père si ce n’est par Moi. » Jn, 14,6). Il n’y a pas pour eux de chemins de salut séparés. C’est pourquoi Saint Pierre, un Juif, le premier Pape, appelle déjà ses auditeurs à se convertir et à se faire baptiser au Nom de Jésus Christ (Act. Ap. 2, 38). Nous trouvons ici l’enseignement de l’Eglise qui est resté constant à travers tous les siècles.
Notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ est par Sa nature humaine Juif, Sa Très Sainte Mère est Juive, tous les Apôtres sont Juifs. Ne serait-ce qu’à cause de cela, aucun Chrétien véritable ne peut être antisémite.
Nous connaissons l’interview que Mgr Williamson à donné à la télévision suédoise. Puisqu’on nous le reproche, nous l’examinerons et prendrons dans ce but le conseil d’un avocat. Il est évident que pour les assertions que Mgr Williamson a faites, il en est seul responsable et celles-ci ne reflètent pas l’avis de la FSSPX. Du reste, le Pape Pie XI lui-même a dans son Encyclique « Mit brennender Sorge » mis en garde contre le régime nazi athée et contre ses crimes.
La question des Juifs n’est en aucun cas un thème du jour pour notre Fraternité. Ses soucis sont le Salut des âmes, malgré ce que l’article de Der Spiegel suggère de façon injuste et trompeuse.

The press secretary of the Catholic Diocese of Stockholm, Sweden, has issued a statement in anticipation of a Swedish television report concerning the Society of Saint Pius X (to be broadcast on 21/01/09).
The diocesan release pretends to deal with different issues surrounding the Society and concludes with the paragraph: 'We would like to make clear the differences between them (SSPX) and the Catholic Church. We completely distance ourselves from all forms of racism and anti-Semitism. The Catholic Church in Sweden has nothing to do with the "Crusade" for making Sweden Catholic again, as reported by the programme, and does not support it in any way.'
As the Society of Saint Pius X continues to do what the Catholic Church has always done, and remains committed to upholding traditional papal teaching, in opposition to the neo-modernist errors which are at the root of the crisis in the Church, we completely reject any charges of being 'outside the Church.'
Furthermore, the implication that the Society of Saint Pius X is somehow racist is entirely false and unjust. Both the faithful who support the Society and the members of the Society itself come from diverse ethnic backgrounds, and include Africans, Indians, Asiatics, and Caucasians, all of whom are united in their Catholic belief and practice, without any distinction or prejudice.
Concerns held by individuals, for instance, over the consequences of mass-immigration in different parts of the world, cannot in any way be termed 'racist' or 'xenophobic.'
Similarly, the Society rejects wholeheartedly the slur that it is anti-Semitic. We embrace without reserve the condemnation of racism, and the proud folly behind it, as made, for example in Pope Pius XI's encyclical Mit brennender Sorge, which deals with the errors of National Socialism. To despise the Jewish people because of their race is to go against the fundamental law of Christian charity which is to 'love ones neighbour as oneself.'
Whilst the Society rejects and deplores all and every prejudice and discrimination against the people from which Our Lord and His holy Mother came, it cannot be described as anti-Semitic to pray for their conversion to the true Faith, to study their recent and tragic history, or to question some of their political objectives. To do so, in the case of this latter, would be to condemn the ultra-orthodox Jews, who disagree with the founding of the State of Israel, as 'anti-semitic!'
Rejecting the idea of a peaceful and prayerful determination to work towards the conversion of Sweden, the Stockholm Diocese very regrettably appears to display its dissent from the Catholic Church's mission of 'teaching and baptising all nations' as commanded by Our Lord Himself (Matthew 28,19), and this seemingly in the name of a false ecumenism.
The accusations made against the Society in the TV emission, and which appear to be echoed in the diocesan statement, are false and unworthy of those who made them. This being said, we do well to heed Our Divine Saviour's injunction of 'praying for our enemies and doing good to them that persecute us.'
