When I approached Fr Hewko with legitimate concerns about Pablo, he said ‘Pablo? Oh Haha, he’s harmless.’
I’ll never forget that immediate dismissal.

Hooray for being naive and finding the good in the worst of criminals and sinners.

But Fr. Hewko is LITERALLY choosing Pablo el Brujo over the good Catholics of CathInfo. He is literally calling good "evil" and evil "good"!

He sees and understands that Pablo and the good Catholics of CathInfo are irreconcilable in their respective current states -- so whom does he castigate and call "evil"? The good Catholics of CathInfo.

That is not a small sin.

That is what I loudly, publicly, criticize Fr. Hewko for. It is a grave injustice and an inversion of everything the Priesthood stands for. Christ is Truth. It is *satan* who is the father of lies.

In fact, once your orientation is upside-down like that, it becomes the fountainhead of hundreds and even thousands of other sins.

Apparently so.

And the worst part is, Fr. Hewko has no reason to believe +ABL didn't believe and teach the exact same thing. As a matter of fact, +Williamson's unpopular (with some Trads) position on this is actually 100% faithful to +ABL.

Here's the thing.  WHETHER OR NOT YOU AGREE with the position articulated by Bishop Williamson, does this position/opinion render him effectively a non-Catholic and a compromiser?  Now, I don't agree with a fair amount of +Williamson's positions (e.g. Valtorta, Garabandal, etc.), but I as a priest would have no problem working with him.  I have no issues with the statements he made regarding the New Mass ... except that perhaps they were inopportune or imprudent.  Whether he wanted to work with me would be a different matter altogether :).  Bishop Williamson has been criticized for providing the Sacraments to various groups, e.g. some Feeneyites, or some Ukrainian Catholics, etc.  But he realizes that these folks are still essentially Catholics and he would not withhold the Sacraments on the basis of a difference of opinion.  This crisis is complicated and confusing and unprecedented, so it's expected that good Catholics might have some different opinions about it.

I dare say that without such "gutter tabloids" as CathInfo, Father Hewko would still be promoting Ambrose Moran and counseling souls to receive dubious Sacraments from him.  He should thank CathInfo for the pressure created on him to re-examine Moran.  Otherwise he might already be subject to one Bishop Pfeiffer, or might even himself be walking around as Bishop Hewko.
