But wait!
H.E. is asking for our reply. Do we want examples or not?????
Unless readers demand textual quotes of Joseph Ratzinger to prove that these are not being twisted or taken out of context, the last EC in this series will conclude with an application of its lessons to the situation of Archbishop Lefebvre’s Society of St Pius X.
I, for one, would like details! We don't ask for repetition, i.e., examples already in EC 251, but if there are others that have been set aside for lack of space, they may be very beneficial for us here.
"Textual quotes of Joseph Ratzinger" proving that these assertions are not twisting the quotes or taking them out of context would be very helpful for us when we try to answer the objections of others. Answering them is sometimes frustrating because we might presume they are familiar with the basics, or that they are not misunderstanding some fact along the way. There is so much confusion these days.
For example, just try to talk to a Protestant about Martin Luther's doctrines, and you'll find they probably are entirely mistaken as to what Luther taught. I'm using a distant example so as not to disturb the one at hand.
Please, Bishop Williamson, provide a few examples at this crucial juncture so we won't have to guess what your examples would have been!
