What I find shocking is how many people are willing to build a cult of personality around Bishop Williamson by speaking out against his superiors actions. I can assure you that his Lordship would not be pleased to see people defend him by going against the Society.

His Lordship has remained within the Society and obeyed all of the commands from above - he is more prudent and has greater understanding of the situation than any of us.

Honest to defend him, but true, there are many trying to divide the SSPX brethern.....

Which remark fails to address the substance of any comments that have been made -- but merely takes the "they wear cassocks" path, as if that makes their actions beyond any and all consideration or comment.

Is Benedict XVI YOUR "superior"? Do you ever "speak out" against his actions? If so, you have an inconsistency that you need to address.

Thank you for the assurance, something we must accept solely upon your word.

If the pope is guilty of nothing at all, of what specifically, then, is Bishop Williamson guilty?

He made the SSPX "look bad" before the world, albeit according to the standards of the world.
