Dear Ethelred,
Thank you very much for the corrections. I would like to print this OP out,
even though it is yet incomplete, for personal reasons. And I would like to
make your own comments, in part, a header on the letter. I think that it
is well worth giving the uninformed readers who will see it a bit of a taste of
the context before they get into the actual words of this scuм-bag of a priest.
I don't think I have been quite this scandalized since I read excerpts from
the тαℓмυd that a friend supplied to me that contain blasphemies against
Our Lord and Our Lady. This comes dangerously close to that.
I'll make your corrections, too, such as the spelling of Fr. Pfluger's name.
And if it's not too much trouble, I know some German-speaking people who
would appreciate a copy in the original German.
If nothing else, these very good translations could be used as examples of
how to do high quality translation work for those working with German and
English. They could immortalize the despicable and sour attitude that this
SSPX priest shows to his SENIOR Bishop.
I have secured permission to publish a private letter from Fr. [Niklaus Pfluger], 1st Asst. to Superior General Bernard Fellay, to Bishop Richard Williamson. The letter is almost two and one half years old, and was, of course, sent to His Excellency before the latter was expelled from the Society. The letter was originally written in French.
Thanks Hollingsworth for posting this one.
Two minor corrections, though:
1) the letter was originally written in German, which unfortunately is the native language of the Swiss-German Fr Pfluger. This German letter is dated 27 December 2010. The translation is dated 1 January 2011.
And the Judaizer Max Krah helped in writing the letter. Firstly, the original letter's word-docuмent has as creator "MK28" which is the Internet pseudonym of Max Krah (plus his age number when he started posting). Secondly, those knowing Krah's public and not-so-public writings in German, will recognise his many passages in the German original letter instantly.
2) The name of the father is Niklaus Pfluger, (not Phluger). It may be hard for Anglo-Saxons to spell this name (and actually you don't need to spell it, just write it), but still it's Pfluger. The German word Pflug means plough in English, so his name in English would translate to something like plough-er. :-)
I did not do the translation, but am certain that it is accurate and idiomatic.
A friend showed to me the German original and the English translation, and I can assure you that it is a professional translation. No surprise, because to my information His Excellency translated the letter from German to English (and we all know that his German is excellent).
(To be continued)
Indeed. When do you post the rest of the letter? I would have hoped you had posted the entire letter in one go, because it really has to be read in one go in order to grasp it.
I don't think it's going to be a problem. I am grasping this quite well as it
is, thank you very much. And I don't mind having a breather in the meantime
because after all, I do want to get a few hours' sleep tonight and if I had read
the whole thing ---- ESPECIALLY SINCE WHAT COMES NEXT IS
WORSE! ---
I'd rather have it stop here so I can let off some steam by typing this!!!!!!!!!!
Since you e-mailed the complete letter to your mailing-list yesterday night, could you or somebody from this list post the entire letter soon here on CI please? Readers really need to get the entire ugly picture!
I will make a Word file to upload when the whole shebang is posted.
Then you can print that out for distribution. This is the smoking gun.
I know a priest who is reluctant to put out much "bad news" from the Society
because "they haven't done much yet." Well, this is pretty bad.
God have mercy on Fr. Pfluger.
Yes, indeed. A high ranking and faithful SSPX cleric titled Fr Pfluger as the "demon of the SSPX" with good reason. Also let's not forget that Fr Pfluger's the man who imported Max "the Mossad friend with the Jєωιѕн name" Krah into the SSPX.
Do you people know that one of Fr Niklaus Pfluger's biological brothers, who's also an SSPX priest, is very sick by now? And some good clerics think that this brother bears the sickness in order to atone (expiation) for his brother Niklaus' doings. Well, I think it's possible.
Long live Bishop Williamson!
Yes.
The manner of Fr. Pfluger's speech is highly unworthy of his ordination. This
is what Our Lady meant when she said priests are falling into hell. I used to
wonder how that could be the case, but now I know.
Bishop Williamson has spent over two years coping with this burden and
cross, unable to make it public out of a concern for common decency. We
are indebted to to him for his fortitude and forebearance. To think this kind
of thing exemplifies the sort of TRASHY ILL-TREATMENT he has endured over
the past several years is utterly ghastly. I am HORRIFIED!!
When I first read the OP, the very first thing that hit me was the similarity
between this and the sour, disrespectful and HATEFUL attitude that it shares
with Fr. Schmidberger's comments regarding the Carmel St. Joseph that was
just recently posted here on CI. I copy it here for those who don't know what
I am referring to:
PostQuoting Fr. Schmidberger (below)......This seems to be a perfect description of Bp. Fellay and what he's actually doing to the SSPX!!!!
"This separation should remind us all of the warnings of the great Apostle Paul: "He that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall." (1 Cor 10:12). He does not 'say he who stands', but 'he who thinks that he stands', precisely because many souls believe themselves in safety; they bathe themselves in virtue, while pride and self-righteousness have ensnared their hearts long ago. Stubbornness, self-righteousness, condescension, criticism, false dialectic, mockery and malice are not the gifts of the Holy Ghost, but characteristics of the adversary of God. It does not matter to him whether he causes the downfall of a soul through its well-known weaknesses, or through its pride of its own virtues. Too often the devil turns into an angel of light and performs his work of seduction sub specie boni – under the disguise of good. If one carries one’s own right too far, for example, the highest injustice can be done."
THEREFORE,
We have here two birds of a feather. Fr. Pfluger and Fr. Schmidberger. They
both are utterly rude and contemptuous of good, holy religious, the first of
a Bishop and the second of a Carmel cloister.
They should be ashamed of themselves!
And to think that Fr. Pfluger has the gall, the TEMERITY, to squeal toward
+Williamson that he ought to apologize to someone! It is Fr. Pfluger who
should be doing the apologies! Unbelievable!
I really wish this could have been released before the
stupid speech in Post
Falls yesterday.
So, we already know a lot about the nefarious doings of +Fellay, and that
would leave only one suspect remaining. Fr. Nely.
Who has the goods on Fr. Nely? What are his dirty deeds? He couldn't be
squeaky clean with all this bad example in his company.
