Thanks Mith!

I've seen the label SSPX SO before but I still don't understand - I'm guessing it has something to do with the whole "talks with Rome"?

Is SO = against joining modernist Rome? If so, then that's me.

It's the group associated with Frs. Pfeiffer and Chazal down in Boston, KY after they were expelled.

They've branded themselves "Society of St. Pius X of the Strict Observance" for legal reasons.

SSPV or CMRI, I would if needs be in the past have gone to an SSPX but now, after the SSPX's goofball talks with the Roman modernist heretics and the impending Beatification of JPII (Maciel Marciel anyone) I will never attend there Masses again.

I put Diocesan TLM before I realized where WOULD we go was the question.  If I had my way, it would be SSPX, but diocesan TLM for now.

Well, it's a long story. He was a Protestant, converted, was a mainstream traditionalist for awhile, then switched to Culkinism and now believes he's about the only real Catholic left in the world. Up there with Bawden and the Dimonds in the think-yourself-into-a-box hall of fame.
So he says that he is the last Catholic left? Maybe we can get him to turn the lights out when he leaves the room.

 I would say Independent, with CMRI a close second.  Really, for me, it could go either way.

What is Culkism?

being a Home Aloner it seems (because the true mass/ true Church is in hiding)
The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
    It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;
    It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?
Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
    And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
    And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.

And for all this, nature is never spent;
    There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
    Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs —
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
    World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.

People gave a brief explanation above, but it's a reference to Macauly Culkin, a former child actor who is most known for his lead role in the 1990s movie Home Alone. Hence, culkinism is a (newly coined?) humorous term for the belief that one does not have access to a valid Mass and thus chooses to stay home on Sundays.

And I'd likely pick SSPX.  I guess.  I like what I've seen of the SSPX when we've visited, but I haven't attended them enough on a regular basis to really say.

Talks-wise, I'll never know what to think.  We don't know what Rome was offering, so how can we say?  I guess I lean toward thinking that the talks were a good thing, and praying that they sewed the right seeds in the right hearts and minds in Rome.

Eastern Rite only.  If I have to go to a Western rite church, Anglican Ordinariate if at all possible.  If that's not available, probably FSSP.  I don't know that I could go anywhere else in good conscience.

Well, I can't really shake the feeling that they are all schismatics.  I mean, I guess I could go to an Institute parish, but they are all in the midwest, and I live on the east coast, so that isn't a realistic option.  On top of the schismatic feeling, SSPX has some Latin triumphalist tendencies (I imagine SSPV, CMRI and related groups are the same, though I haven't ever seen any instances of it personally) and, imo, they take parts of the New Testament out of context and insist upon things as truly Catholic that are actually contrary to the Gospel (as far as I can tell).  I couldn't give you examples off the top of my head, I'm just going by the internal reactions I remember having after reading things in the past.

Oh!  Heh.  I guess I need to pay attention to poll options.  I thought you meant other TLMs and the NO.  And I was confused.
