I have secured permission to publish a private letter from Fr. Nickolas Phluger, 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. Since it is eight pages in length, I will publish Part 2 tomorrow or the next day, until it has all been put online.
My wife and I were in attendance at Fr. Phluger's talk in Post Falls, Wednesday the 10th of April. We came away so put off by the event, and so disappointed by the performance of the First Assistant, that I thought it high time we all get to know the real Fr. Phluger a little better. Keep in mind, as you read the letter, that these are the words of a mere priest in the Society to a bishop superior, the organizational and hierarchical structure of the Society notwithstanding:
Letter from Fr Pfluger to Bishop Williamson, 1 January, 2011.
Your Excellency,
Dear Bishop Williamson,
For months I have been meaning to write to you in order to bring up everything so to speak incomprehensible and also false in the things you have been saying over the last few years. I put it off since you never brought up arguments and obviously feel personally hurt – rather unusual for a free-thinking man. But after I could not help reading in your latest “Eleison Comments” that “World War III may not be far off”, I am now writing before time becomes short, because one never knows when time will run out.
This prophecy of yours took my mind back to the after-dinner speeches at the Episcopal Consecrations of 1988, After the main event all four newly consecrated bishops said a few words. Bishop Tissier as usual was very theological and dogmatic. Bishop de Galarreta was short and discrete. Bishop Fellay was pastoral and balanced. But you were principally concerned with war. Perhaps you were already thinking of World War III when you cried out to the assembly, “It’s war, it’s war !”. At that time it was still the Russians who were due to attack. It would be quite a task to count up all the times in the last 22 years that you have prophesied with precise dates the Third World War and the Chastisement. At least a dozen times for sure. A task also to work out why you have never asked yourself the question whether your forecasting arises from objective analysis and not rather from subjective utopianism.
Alas, I know you do not ask yourself such questions. Nor do you ask why I, and with me Menzingen and almost the entire Society of St Pius X and the world while we are about it, why we merely shake our heads and are simply disappointed. (I attach extracts from two e-mails, the first coming from a former pupil of yours, the second from a German town mayor.) For you it is clear. Always somebody else is to blame. Everybody else is clueless, blind to reality, agents of some organization or other, be it Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ or the Mossad or the CIA, most recently and emphatically “the Jєωs” – the list is long. In brief, anybody who disagrees with you is either stupid or wicked or both. To any of the people who have rejected your constant warnings of war and your crude political and economic theories, and who have criticized you for them – there are many such people, and some have even been offended -- have you ever apologized ? Have you apologized to one single one ? Would you ever be capable of saying, “I was wrong” ?
In fact that is a blatantly semitic way of thinking: to pin one’s own faults on a scapegoat, which bears the guilty for everything. That is what Hitler did. The Germans’ own defeat of November 9, 1918 produced a hatred for international Jєωry, which was responsible for all evil in the German nation and therefore had to be “fought openly and without mercy”.
This problem is to be seen at another point in the latest “Eleison Comments”. You wrote there: “Derivatives… act upon the delicate mechanisms of world finance like weapons of mass destruction, because they easily fabricate an unreal world of colossal and unpayable debt.” To which one smart reader replied, “The Bishop is showing off – “delicate mechanisms of world finance” -- as though he sees through the mechanisms of world finance and could point out their weaknesses.” You could not do that. No more can you see through the highly complex connections of politics, or the nαzιs’ mass-murder of Jєωs. You have an opinion, then you look around for a few unconnected details which somehow fit this opinion (for instance the “Leuchter Report”), and you hawk it all as the truth...[/color]
