Ponemos en esta entrada un artículo del diario Clarín, el más importante de Argentina
ESPAÑOL-ENGLISH
"Los lefebvristas vuelven a ser admitidos
por la Iglesia argentina
Resolución de la Secretaría de Culto. Es una comunidad ultraconservadora.
Se reintegran en el país pero en el Vaticano encuentran resistencia.
Para
esa incorporación debió mediar un pedido de la autoridad eclesiástica que, en
este caso, fue hecho por el arzobispo de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, cardenal
Mario Poli.
La
incorporación en el país de los lefebvristas a la Iglesia católica se produce
mientras el Vaticano mantiene dificultosas tratativas con esa comunidad a nivel
mundial para su vuelta a Roma. Las conversaciones se iniciaron en 2000 por
voluntad de Juan Pablo II. En 2009 Benedicto XVI dispuso levantar la excomunión
de los cuatro obispos –Lefebvre murió en 1991–, que era una de las demandas de
la comunidad ultraconservadora.
La
decisión de Joseph Ratzinger –no exenta de polémica– le trajo un gran dolor de
cabeza al Papa alemán porque casi inmediatamente se conocieron declaraciones de
uno de los obispos beneficiados, residente en la Argentina, Richard Williamson,
que negaba el Holocausto. Entonces, el gobierno encabezado por Cristina
Kirchner decidió expulsarlo del país.
Como
Williamson insistió, al menos parcialmente, con sus opiniones y se puso al
frente del grupo más radicalizado de los lefebvristas, fue expulsado de la
Fraternidad San Pío X en 2012.
A
su vez, Benedicto XVI lo suspendió “ad divinis” y en una carta a todos los
obispos admitió haberse equivocado, al no informarse sobre los antecedentes
negacionistas de Williamson.
La
vuelta de los lefebvristas a la Iglesia en la Argentina –que se descuenta que
contó con el visto bueno del Papa Francisco– es vista en las cercanías del
pontífice como un logro porque implica que al menos un sector de los seguidores
de Lefebvre aceptan el Concilio Vaticano II. Pero seguramente no les caerá bien
a sectores progresistas. Al fin de cuentas, ése era el deseo de los inmediatos
antecesores de Francisco.
En
el Brasil, hace ya un tiempo que una parte de los lefebvristas volvió a la
comunión con Roma, al pasar a ser una Prefectura Apostólica, que depende
directamente del Papa".
The Lefebvrists return to being accepted by the Church in Argentina

A recent article in the most read newspaper in Argentina, Clarin, had some interesting things to say about Lefebvrists. Keep in mind that the Clarin is the same newspaper where the SSPX district superior (now district superior of France) denied that the Jews were responsible for deicide (the Gospel account). Also, it is interesting that in Argentina, a great number of the SSPX members have visa issues for none other than not being able to acquire documentation from the conciliar authorities. What follows is a translation of the article. A unilateral recognition? - M.F
____________________________________________________
For this incorporation a mediation was needed by an order of ecclesiastical authority, in this case, made by the Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Cardinal Mario Poli.
The incorporation into the country by the Lefebrists into the Catholic Church occurs while the Vatican maintains difficult negotiations with that community worldwide for its return to Rome. The discussions began in 2000 as was the will of John Paul II. In 2009, Benedict XVI decided to lift the excommunication of the four bishops -Lefebvre died in 1991, which was one of the demands of the ultraconservative community.
Joseph Ratzinger's decision -not lacking in controversy- gave a big headache to the German Pope because declarations almost immediately became known from one of the bishops benefiting [from the lifting of the excommunications], residing in Argentina, Richard Williamson, who denied the Holocaust. Then, the government led by Cristina Kirchner decided to deport him.
As Williamson insisted, at least partially, with his opinions, he was put in the forefront of the most radicalized group of the Lefebvrists. He was expelled from the Society of St. Pius X in 2012.
In turn, Benedict XVI suspended him "ad divinis" and in a letter to all bishops admitted being mistaken, by not being informed about the previous denial [of the Holocaust] of Williamson.
The return of the Lefebvrist to the Church in Argentina, which is deducted as having been the approval of Pope Francis- is seen from those near the pontiff as an achievement because it implies that at least one sector of the followers of Lefebvre have accepted the Second Vatican Council. But it certainly will not be met well by progressive sectors. After all, it was the desire of the immediate predecessors of Francis.
In Brazil, it was already some time ago that some of the Lefebvrists returned to communion with Rome, by becoming an Apostolic Prefecture, reporting directly to the Pope.
