What are the places that are safe to attend Mass and receive sacraments during this terrible crisis? (For example, SSPX, CMRI ??)
CMRI priests are not really against SGG (Bp Dolan's group ) I listen to Bp Dolan's sermons every day and they are excellent! I know there are serious problems with SGG (NUC , Jurisdiction etc ) ,but they do have kind and holy priests.

What are the places that are safe to attend Mass and receive sacraments during this terrible crisis? (For example, SSPX, CMRI ??) CMRI priests are not really against SGG (Bp Dolan's group ) I listen to Bp Dolan's sermons every day and they are excellent! I know there are serious problems with SGG (NUC , Jurisdiction etc ) ,but they do have kind and holy priests. Generally speaking, SSPX, CMRI, some eastern rite priests, and some independent priests are safe. Regarding SSPX and CMRI, you will have to see who is local to you and then figure it out, do not trust groups as a whole. The only way to know for sure is to check into what you see locally snd judge for yourself. Be very careful of all others, including some of those of the resistance, many independents, and many of those who hold the sedevacantist or C-thesis positions. The sedevacantists and C-Thesis holders are the most problematic, IMO, as there are many among them believing errors spreading around such as denying Catholic teaching on the Apostolic succession, such as that it may be interrupted or ended, or the new doctrine, not directly said, but certainly implied, that holds that what constitutes a successor of the Apostles may evolve due to our times. Many also promote the NUC error which is a perversion of Catholic teaching and leads to schism. If you do go to them, be careful if you have children or those who may be ignorant on their Faith, and if you do bring them, make sure you teach them the truth on these matters right from Catholic sources to protect them. Btw it's not just the priests that one must be careful of, many of the laity that attend these chapels believe the heretical or erroneous ideas named above, so be careful with those who you may bring after the mass as well. I have personally known of people who attend CMRI, for example, in a chapel where the priest does not believe in NUCism, but the laypeople who go do believe it and infected others with this insidious error. The same can be said of the position of believing it is permissible to reject the laws of the Catholic Church which exists in many of these chapels.

I second Pacelli's advice. If the behaviour of the priest is scandalous (as that it sets an example of sin, or causes you to sin yourself) don't keep attending. Find another option.
