Years before entering law school, I was in Bishop Williamson's seminary. He had all of these insane ideas then. In addition, he also has friends of those connected to the International Third Position and the European National Front. I believe he is an activist, and not simply a mistaken cleric.<BR/><BR/>Here is an article I wrote on this topic recently. <BR/><BR/>http://christopherpryor.blogspot.com/2009/02/have-men-about-me-who-are-fat.html<BR/><BR/>Thank you again for following this story.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely,<BR/>J.

Argentinian authorities had given him ten days to leave the country.FAIIRPLAYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09057410466151320733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-4621484124087462352009-02-26T03:21:00.000-05:002009-02-26T03:21:00.000-05:00Bishop Williamson -I told you before, based on my ...Bishop Williamson -I told you before, based on my persona knowledge- sincerely believes what he says.<BR/><BR/>I also told you of the influence from David Irving.

Argentina has a large Jewish community and a phone call could get him a dozen victims who would personally testify to their experiences. <BR/><BR/>Instead, he chooses to do research by e-mailing David Irving. <BR/><BR/>He knows full well that his promise "to do research" was understood by the Catholic world, and his superiors, to mean research the opposite side to his current views. <BR/><BR/>Instead he hooks up with Lady Renouf. <BR/><BR/>I must add that the Bishop is in a position, unlike you or I, where he must consider the effect of his every action on the Church. <BR/><BR/>He has acted with a lot of pride and not much probity.<BR/><BR/>I do allow that a good number of Catholics don't see this as a problem of natural law and availablity of truth. Many see this as a civil liberty issue. <BR/><BR/>But to quote an old traditionalist saying "untruth has no rights".<BR/><BR/>That's the Lefevbrist argument against religious liberty for protestants by the way. <BR/><BR/>So you see, he is hung by his own petard. <BR/><BR/>Best Wishes.StGuyFawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06570291822949968620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-57662610658293119542009-02-25T17:51:00.000-05:002009-02-25T17:51:00.000-05:00"My suggestion was that Bp.

What would his motivation be for doing so? Isn't it more likely that he believes what he is saying?<BR/><BR/>If so, you have to hand it to him for not backing down in the face of threats against not only his situation in the church, but even his liberty if he is prosecuted in Germany under their Holocaust denial laws. Why would he risk this if he does not sincerely believe what he says?mugworthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587644167621230353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-41638178310216173362009-02-25T12:32:00.000-05:002009-02-25T12:32:00.000-05:00Hmmm.

It appears that he's now on an airplane and heading for the UK. Willamson's London arrival may be reported on tonights main evening news. Guessing I'd say the Pope or some senior Catholic clergyman is behind this deportation because he brought the Pope, and the Catholic Church into disrepute.

It's only been invoked once in 2000 years. <BR/><BR/>There is another general understanding that the Church won't fly off the rails with regards to doctrine. But that is different. It all comes from a statement of Jesus that "I will always be with you."<BR/><BR/>So in short, the Church has and will mess up again and again. However it is an article of Faith that the Holy Spirit will protect it from errors of religions doctrine, not practice. <BR/><BR/>My suggestion was that Bp. Williamson be excommunicated for a new set of public and scandalous lies.StGuyFawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06570291822949968620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-87139755145031098042009-02-25T06:31:00.000-05:002009-02-25T06:31:00.000-05:00In the following interview with newspaper Kölner S...In the following interview with newspaper Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, canon law professor Peter Krämer of Trier university, says that the church authorities have a duty to react when the dignity of human being is injured, and they could discipline Richard Williamson with measures going from a several year long speech ban, to excommunication.<BR/><BR/>"Papst kann mehrjähriges Redeverbot verhängen" 06-02-2009 http://www.ksta.de/html/artikel/1233911279233.shtmlUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07954226313981092813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-64728218262486168942009-02-25T01:52:00.000-05:002009-02-25T01:52:00.000-05:00I thought SSPX was already back in the Vatican's g...I thought SSPX was already back in the Vatican's good graces. It would be nice if the Vatican re-excommunicated them, but that might bring doubt the claim that the Church is infallible.

One...I'll mention something I've been holding back. <BR/><BR/>One predicate in canon law allowing excommunication is "scandal". Scandal is defined as acting in a conspicuously sinful way that might lead other Catholics to think one can be a Catholic and also believe, or act in the conspicuous and scandalous way. <BR/><BR/>The usual canditates for this are gangsters and pro-choice politicians who never miss Mass. <BR/><BR/>It appears to me that Williamson is starting to put himself in danger of a "denunciation for scandal". <BR/><BR/>It would be a fresh excommunication for a fresh charge but it looks like his Excellancy Richard Williamson is begging for it. <BR/><BR/>And he's totally backstabbing Bp. Fellay whom he promised to not embarrass. <BR/><BR/>The only thing missing is that the Pope would have to call Holocaust Denial a willful sin of lying.<BR/><BR/>Now is the time for Jewish groups and friendly Catholics to approach a canon lawyer in Rome and ask frsubmit a "denunciation" to the courts. <BR/><BR/>In the meantime it looks like Williamson is beginning a schism of his own. He will inherit the more "cultish" members of the SSPX. <BR/><BR/>And the rest of the SSPX will come in.StGuyFawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06570291822949968620noreply@blogger.com
