"The way to Heaven is tough. Our time has reached a higher intensity of evil than before. Temptations are greater than ever,” said Bishop Bernard Fellay of the Priestly Fraternity of St Pius X in an interview with Kenya’s Immaculata TV on 23 November (video below).
He explained that there has been a terrible crisis in the Church since Vatican II, including a terrifying decline in vocations: "You wonder how far it can go."
And, "The influence of the Church on the world is now reduced to nothing."
Bishop Fellay quoted Cardinal Ratzinger’s well-known prediction that the Church as we know it will disappear and be reduced to "little islands": "I fear we are very close to that time."
He continued, "A lot of things in the Church have already been destroyed."
On Tucho’s Document About Marian Titles
Regarding Cardinal Victor (Tucho) Fernández and his recent document on the Marian titles Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all graces, Bishop Fellay called it “pitiful.”
“It is an insult to God,” he said.
“God wants his creatures to collaborate and cooperate in his work.”
He explained that God wanted the Blessed Virgin Mary to fulfil her unique role, and that many popes had used the title 'Mediatrix' and at times 'Co-Redemptrix', or similar formulations.
Monsignor Fellay recalled that, prior to Vatican II, theologians were close to defining a Marian dogma of Mary as Mediatrix of all graces.
He believes the motive behind Tucho’s document is ecumenical accommodation: "There is a Protestant spirit in the Church."
