Regarding the furor last year over Benedict’s decision to lift the excommunications of four right-wing schismatic bishops, one of whom -- Richard Williamson -- is a h0Ɩ0cαųst-denier, Benedict says that if he had known about Williamson’s views he would have separated him out from the papal pardon. “Unfortunately,” Benedict says, “none of us went on the Internet to find out what sort of person we were dealing with.”
What sort of person? Williamson stands head and shoulder above Ratzinger. How nasty this is.
How is the Bishop's health during all of this? I heard once that he had Parkinson's. Such a sham.
