I am sure this the former Pfifferite website of the Chicago lawyer, although I do not know if he supports Fr. Pfiffer anymore. He maybe be a "Hewkonian" or a "home-aloner."

He rejected them both a good number of years ago in much the same manner that Fr. Chazal did.  Subsequent to or shortly before his rejection of Fr. Pfeiffer he started with much of his own time, effort, and expense a non-profit corporation in the U.S. to raise funds for Dom Aquino, now Bp. Aquino at the urging of Bp. Williamson.  Unfortunately, he later dropped his support for Father, now Bp. Aquino.

Much of the material on Catholic Candle (the "baby") is excellent while some of the "bath water" poses a real and legitimate problem to some TradCats.  What else is new?!

Sounds like a MHFM-lite website....everyone is a heretic but them.  
.
Just what we need nowadays, more division.   :facepalm:
Notice that Our Lady didn’t tell St Dominic to go around anathematizing the Albigensian heretics of his day.  She told him to preach the rosary!  She wanted people to pray and then She and the Holy Ghost could enlighten them to truth (assuming they had good Will).   And that’s how the heresy ended.  Prayer.  
.
So if people want to create a website, they should do something to promote saying the rosary, or the Consecration to the Immaculate Heart, or the First Friday/First Saturday devotions.  This is the type of Catholic Action we need today.  Not more division and name calling.
I suspect that you agree—there are times and circuмstances for prayer and also times and circuмstances for Catholic men to stand up and act.

I came across that website a while ago and found it very strange. As I recall, he condemns basically everyone in the traditional world and does not offer any solution for where to receive the sacraments.

That wasn't fair to Bishop Williamson- many things were taken out of context- mostly from the Mahopac 2015 video. Everyone who was there ( as I was) knows what he meant. The good Bishop has a heart for all Catholics; even those that need gentle coaxing towards tradition. There were  NO Catholics there as guests as it was for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Don't you speak more judiciously when you are reaching out to NO Catholics. or do you bang them over the head? If the priest was valid, ( and years ago there were many NO priests that still were) was  the NO consecration valid therefor conferring Grace? ( Not asking for an answer as this has been debated a gazillion times)

Bishop Williamson also does not adjure people to follow him or dictate what they should believe outside of Church teaching but he does have a right  to express his opinions.
