This is a good example of how a lie grows.
It's a good example of a falsehood, used as a premise, leads to an entire
system of erroneous doctrine.
It is a good example of Modernism in practice:
The difficulty proper to these priests, compared to Orthodox priests or Protestant pastors, is that their ministry in fact contributes - perhaps not in their intent - to divide the Catholic Church from the inside.
When you begin with a lie, everything that follows is logically false. It is not
the SSPX that is dividing the Church from the inside. It is rather the error
of the apostate hierarchy, including the post-Conciliar popes, that is dividing
the Church from the inside. The SSPX (until +Fellay got his way, that is) has
been keeping the Church TOGETHER.
And it is precisely regarding this point that my anxiety has grown in the course of the past few months. I was already horrified that a bishop of the SSPX had published a book repeatedly accusing Pope Benedict XVI of being heretical (Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, L’étrange théologie de Benoît XVI, Avrillé, 2010). This could nonetheless be an isolated viewpoint that did not engage the Society as such, even if coming from one of its bishops. The same applies to the famous declarations of Bp. Williamson, which was confirmed by his exclusuon from the SSPX.
But Pope Benedict XVI HAS written and spoken objective heresies. He is
demonstrably a material heretic, and only he can change that, by his own
abjuration of his erstwhile errors.
The "famous declarations of Bp. Williamson" have nothing to do with any
confirmation by his exclusion from the Society. On the contrary, the "famous
declarations" he made were his own private opinions, which had no bearing
on any disciplinary action against him, which is proven by the fact that none
of what he had said or written was ever identified as the reason for his
exclusion. He was expelled for having written. He was not expelled for WHAT
he had written. And he is the first bishop in the history of the Church to be
expelled from a pious association of priests for the unforgivable act of having
"disobeyed" by the unforgivable act of writing, after he was told to stop writing,
even though WHAT he was writing was not apparently worth mentioning.
