I recall 'Adoramus Te' stating Bishop Williamson didn't need me to defend him. I never suggested otherwise so I keep this in mind as I make this post. This from Vincenzo is worth mentioning though

I received this commentary today from Michael Hoffman by email. I agree.

Transcript of Father Chazal's June 10 talk, "What Next? "

Michael Hoffman's Note: The underlining of the text below (for brevity, not included in this reposting), alleged to be a transcript of Fr. Chazal's recent talk (or sermon), was added by this writer. My apologies in advance if I have drawn attention where it should not be...I do not want to steal Fr. Chazal's thunder, but for now, four comments.
1. For many years under Bishop Fellay a tyranny has been imposed which SSPX priests and esp. laity obeyed as though their orders came from heaven itself. I witnessed consistent, mindless robotic obedience to the SSPX higher-ups as if they were inspired by the Holy Ghost at all times; this craven servility was not Roman Catholic, it was like much of the alleged "traditional" Catholicism today, a hybrid of modern traits and weak mentality. I have never understood why for so many years, SSPX priests and bishops were accorded more servile obedience than the pope himself! How could this be? Here we were, disobeying the pope when we felt he was wrong (and we were correct to do so), while at the same time submitting to virtually anything from the pastor, or the District Superior, or Superior General. This was perverse and bred many of the shortcomings and blindness that allowed Bishop Fellay in 2012 to get as far as he has, as of this late date, with the "reconciliation" with Rome.
2. The treatment by the SSPX priests and laity accorded Bishop Williamson after the worldwide media assassination of his character and added scourging by Rome and Bp. Fellay, were met with great apathy and indifference by SSPX laity and priests. Now Fr. Chazal calls on the priests and laity to have a spine. Where was their spine when Bishop Williamson was challenging h0Ɩ0cαųstianity, the clandestine religion of Judaism for gentiles that masquerades as the secular history of WWII? He was thrown to the wolves, with hardly a peep from nearly anyone in his Society. Some SSPXers told me, WWII history has nothing to do with the Church. But it was not World War II history that was at stake, it was the integrity of our Faith under assault by Judaism, using the vehicle of a false "h0Ɩ0cαųst" history that has become the new "Shoah' theology of post-Vatican II Catholicism. Bishop Fellay surrendered to it completely as did almost all of the SSPX.
3. An SSPX priest in America has consistently informed me of the stupor and obtuseness of his western U.S. parishioners who, after years in the SSPX ,had been trained to say plenty of novenas and rosaries but who cannot or will not think deeply about anything intellectual or substantial -- pietism, as Fr. Chazal himself, comments. How are such people equipped to rise now, after being told, during the past fifteen years mainly to pay, pray and obey the SSPX?
4. Finally, and Fr. Chazal does not touch on this: SSPX separatism has led to pride and an emphasis on everything but the love of Christ. At the local SSPX parish newcomers are greeted with suspicious looks and sour faces. One must be a member of the in-crowd to be treated kindly. This is a symptom of the sinful separatism of Pharisees. It is epidemic in "traditional" Catholicism. Where is the joy,peace and love of Christ? The desire for union with Rome is not entirely misplaced, even if it cannot happen with this current Hegelian pope, because there must be a way to be rid of the separatist mentality, the obsession with external purity, while malicious gossip and mean-spirited cultism hold sway. Today many SSPXers would be shocked to learn of anyone in their parish going to dine with rabbis, harlots and government bureaucrats, as Christ did. They would say that any SSPX person who did so was demon-posseesed, as the Pharisees said of Jesus. How did the Catholic Church convert the millions of pagans if not by engaging them in their public squares, educating their children, feeding their poor? This cannot be done from behind a fortress. Judaics and Freemasons are among the masses, working with optimism as they recruit en masse. We, the children of God, are hiding in our self-made ghettos, bickering among ourselves, imploding and waiting for the end of time. Is this why God put us on earth, to hide -- or to overcome? -M.H.
The "Williamson Affair" showed how spineless those attending the SSPX could be so as this snippet is good as it states "How are such people equipped to rise now, after being told, during the past fifteen years mainly to pay, pray and obey the SSPX?"
I recall even on this forum Elizabeth stating I was тαℓмυdic. I don't wish to dignify this rubbish with a detailed reply.
What interested me in this piece from Hoffman is
"Now Fr. Chazal calls on the priests and laity to have a spine. Where was their spine when Bishop Williamson was challenging h0Ɩ0cαųstianity"
Hoffman is correct here about a mindset within the SSPX. Bishop Williamson was stabbed in the back, and instead of defending him many threw him to the wolves yet when Michele Renouf defended him, many SSPX faithful were angered yet now they shed their crocodile tears about future direction of the Society.
It's remarkable.Hypocrisy of the highest order.
