Conciliar SSPX New Altar Tables
#5
The destroyers at Vatican II made no secret of their attempts to make the new Mass acceptable and palatable to the Protestants. It was designed to be ecumenical. One of the first things the Protestants did under Calvin and Henry VIII was smash and remove the Catholic altars.  

With all of the destruction of traditional Catholic altars in the wake of Vatican II to free standing altars/tables, it appears to be another sign of the SSPX's slow turning to Conciliarism by adopting a Conciliar-esque altar. People are too accustomed to seeing those same free standing altars in Conciliar churches. It subtly contributes to a more seamless transition between Conciliar and SSPX.

It all makes The Recusant's point:
Quote:... it certainly shouldn't become the norm, it ought to be an exception which proves the rule. And one would reasonably expect there to be a serious reason to justify it, even if it's something like: "That's what kind of altar the church had when we acquired it, it was always like that and we didn't want to change it." Fine. That sounds reasonable. But here they're building a church from scratch. Why would you choose not to have gradines or a reredos?

This wasn't how the old SSPX designed their churches when building from scratch. Case in point, Christ the King Church in Connecticut:

"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
