SSPX

So, the Vatican is beginning new talks with the SSPX.

I wonder--is that the real motive for the Modernists in Regensburg threatening excommunication for their next batch of priestly ordinations?

Or is it sour grapes that the SSPX is going to ordain over 20 men, when priestly vocations in Germany are vanishingly rare, other wise.

And, Canon Law says the penalty for doing those ordinations is suspension--not excommunication. So, to the Regensburg Radicals actually have any respect for Canon Law, or are they just playing games?
