Tradition will never slip into irrelevance.
True tradition won't. Thus, the SSPX will slip into irrelevance. Without men like +Williamson it will. Bishop Williamson is the greatest reason why not to take the SSPX seriously. I have yet to meet someone form the SSPX to even make me think about what they teach and do. In fact, the only thing the SSPX has led me to think about is the validity of teachings of the Catholic Church, themselves included. While I was never a Traditionalist, the SSPX has played a good part in pushing me towards Orthodoxy. |

I have found that traditionalists are very good at getting me to see the problems with neo-conservative Catholicism (e.g. Peter W. Miller's A Brief Defense of Traditionalism, but not as good with respective to offering an alternative. |

Miller's A Brief Defense of Traditionalism, but not as good with respective to offering an alternative. I believe they are the same problem packaged differently. They have the externals that are appealing to those disenfranchised by the modernization of the Roman Church, but their spirituality is just as bad. I haven't met an SSPXer who has argued well for Traditionalism (maybe the book you linked does, I don't know). Every rhetoric and polemic is out of hubris. You wouldn't hear anything but "we're right, you're wrong." I've even had one ultra trad tell me that Orthodox are heretic schismatics whose god is Satan, and that Eastern Catholics are nothing more than half-way houses that proves how wrong the modern ecumenist mindset is. |

All this while condemning a great man like Bishop Williamson who now stands alone in resisting the errors in Rome. Strange days indeed. |

You can say I am a true Traditionalist. I am looking for something more traditional than Trent, which is only 500 years ago. I think that is one of the biggest holes of Traditional Roman Catholicism and the SSPX, to claim tradition and yet only go as far back as 500 years ago. It is as if the Church never existed in the First Millennium. Something that is very clear when you look at Orthodoxy. |

Latin Sacramental theology states that the mark of ordination is indelible and someone outside the Church retains their ordination. A priest is still a priest, a bishop is still a bishop, and they can perform Sacraments validly but illicitly as they are outside the Church. The Sacraments are at the command of the priests and bishops, not something that is bound to the Church itself. |

In fairness though, I do know someone who speaks as higly about Bishop Williamson and he is not Bishop Williamson. He does have quite a following within the SSPX. |
