  • Well, it is from late 2009, I think, but it was just posted recently.

    I confess that while there is some excellent and informative material here, and that it is worth watching, the comment about V2 being an adulterous union between the Church and the world is something I find highly problematic, to say the least.

  • I am actually watching it now...and the discussion about the situation with respect to Vatican II, which comes after the one hour mark, is a bit on the dicey side.  He actually claims that there are some explicitly heretical statements in V2.

    I am not THAT familiar with his writings, etc.  Has he ever said that before?

  • I watched his interview with Stephen Heiner.  I am impressed by almost everything he says except when it comes to his position on the Church.  To my knowledge, he has never said there is anything explicitly heretical in VII.  I will certainly be taking a look-see at this link.

    If he goes sede it would be immensely helpful, to say the least, as he is associated with the more uncompromising class of SSPX-goers who will undoubtedly follow his lead.  The only problem is that some white-supremacist plants may infect the sedevacantist movement, being attracted like moths to flame by his h0Ɩ0cαųst views. But they would probably quickly be rooted out.

    I heard today from a parishioner at church who says she knew Abp. Lefebvre that, in the early days of SSPX, he preached monarchy as the best of all political systems in front of Americans, to reap, as you might expect, mostly discontented grumbles from the crowd.  Today seems to be the day where I soften towards the SSPX and some of their virtues begin to reveal themselves, virtues that ironically will only shine in their full splendor once there is no SSPX anymore and there is only the real Church over against the fake one.
    Readers: Please IGNORE all my postings here. I was a recent convert and fell into errors, even heresy for which hopefully my ignorance excuses. These include rejecting the "rhythm method," rejecting the idea of "implicit faith," and being brieflfy quasi-Jansenist. I also posted occasions of sins and links to occasions of sin, not understanding the concept much at the time, so do not follow my links.

  • This is yet another video interview by Stephen Heiner, a newer one.  Who is Stephen Heiner and how did he get such access to Bp. Williamson?

  • "... The plastic dummy substitute of Vatican II..."  He is saying that it isn't the true Church.  How can a true Pope create a counterfeit Church?

    I do love to hear Bp. Williamson speak.  I am getting invigorated.  Apart from the SSPX position he has, this man is just completely spot-on, especially when it comes to cօռspιʀαcιҽs and the devil and the illusory nature of the entire modern world.  This is what people should be hearing from every pulpit in every country.  Someone should just elect him Pope -- what traditionalist wouldn't follow?

    yes, he is very blunt, more so than the other 3 SSPX bishops

    Stephen Heiner is Bp. Williamson's publisher.  He has been doing interviews with him since 2006.

    Agreed. He occasionally gets tangled, like when talking about women and being practical, but anyone could easily say something that, later, they would like to have said a little better/more clearly. For example, ALL of us should ALWAYS be practical, but going into a good bit of debt to be brainwashed, and to delay entry into the workforce (if necessary) is NEVER practical. That said, if I was videotaped, I am sure a few of my comments would not come out as cleanly and clearly as I would like.

    All of his principles seem to lead there like a logical bullet train.

    IMO, it is like with the bulk of humanity: They are not willing to go where their principles lead -- whether they are sound principles that lead to a life of sanctity, or bad principles that lead to a truly evil life. Most men are in the middle in practice, because of the unwillingness to accept the logical conclusions of the principles they espouse. I include myself among such "middle" men, as my actions are not perfectly consistent with the principles I hold. Most, if not all, of the liberals (or "conservatives") I know would be/are horrified at where their principles truly lead -- that is why they do not actually go there, even in their minds.

    Sanctity means giving up the life of the old man entirely -- "Lord, make me a saint, but not yet." Being an out and out sinner means giving up all hope that, one day, you will finally get your sh*t together -- i.e., giving up all hope that you can ever live like the new man. Most of us, of whatever stripe, cling to various illusions, about life, about truth, about ourselves, etc.

  • If the Pope, the majority of Bishops and Priests had the
    mind of Bishop Williamson, their would be far less
    problems in the Church, and the World.
    His is correct that why the majority of people refuses to
    see into the truth, is because they put to much trust
    in the government, and accepting the welfare state, and
    handouts.

  • My post would not format as I wanted, even after editing, so I canned it and re-posted the same material.

  • Bishop Williamson will never go sede publicly.  He owes too much to Archbishop Lefebvre and is too loyal to him and his memory to do that.  Even if, in his heart of hearts, he believes the sedevacantists correct.
