Doesn't Bp. Fellay know that the philosophical root of Modernism is agnosticism (i.e., doubt)? This is at the beginning of Pascendi, ¶6!

Bishop Fellay- you are a disgrace.

Quote from: Incredulous

Bp. Fellay has a propensity for talking in circles.

Yes, Bishop Fellay is the biggest bag of hot air in the Society.

Despite thousands of speeches and sermons, the only originality he can muster is to evoke a saccharine unction in his voice and employ keywords inappropriately.

We have yet to see a single contribution he has made to the Church in all his worthless bluster.

Perhaps his time would be better spent parsing the local newspaper to the editor?

He is the most boring cleric we have ever come across.

And so what does that say about his lemmings who 'faithfully' follow him?

It's easy to see how their frustration might be misdirected! (Ah-hem!)

So it seems to me quite clear that +Fellay's latest remarks on the Holy Father's modernism is just what he says it is: a clarification.

Yes, another of his "clarifications" which leave so many scratching their heads as to what on earth he is trying to say. He enjoyed the benefit of his modernist comment and now polishes of the edges so that he cannot be accused of meaning what he said.

The actions of the dual minded man. Sadly, none of this is apparent to those who are loyal to the King, for they too have learned to live in dual minded contradiction.

An equally plausible explanation to Bishop Fellay's interview, in contradistinction to John Anthony's explanation.

Once again, intelligent people don't know what Bishop Fellay is saying, and it requires arguments to settle the matter.

As Matthew once said, "Clarity is not his specialty."

I used the word “modernist;” I think that it was not understood by everybody. Perhaps I should have said a modernist in his actions. Once again, he is not a modernist in the absolute, theoretical sense: a man who develops a whole coherent system; that coherence does not exist.

If Bergolio is not a modernist, then practically no other bishop is either. Fellay's response is quite telling. It's Bp. Rifan II.
