Viewing angles can easily give the wrong impression as can the timing of a picture when theres some movement involved. in these pictures from Australian confirmations we can see from the other side of the head that the bishops hand is touching the head.

Glad to see that by now he has understood his earlier error and has corrected himself. This proves the entire point that a correction was necessary, as Bishop Faure himself demonstrates that he had to change his hand positioning.

So my first question is answered. He was wrong in how he did it at first, either through carelessness or ignorance, but now understands how to do a confirmation correctly and is doing so. Deo Gratias.

So it's "Resistance crisis over".

Now we just need to get Bishop Fellay and a huge % of SSPX priests to convert/repent from their compromises and attraction to Modernist Rome, (as well as some of them having to apologize/repent of their over-bearing and uncharitable/inappropriate behavior against some in the Resistance) and we'll be all set.

Unfortunately, the SSPX crisis is a bit more serious and entrenched...

Confirmations in the Eastern Rites always have been recognized as valid by the Church. Clearly the bishops hand on top of the forehead is not necessary, else they wouldn't be applying the chrism with a brush or q-tip. Btw, I believe most of these are priests pictured below.

Who should I trust in this matter, tradition or some random lady who seems to know more about the Sacraments than priests and bishops who've been practicing it the better part of their lives?? I'm so confused!!!

This thread reminds me of Bishop Daniel Dolan. When Archbishop Lefebvre ordained him a priest he only imposed one hand above his head when he made him a priest instead of two as the Bishop is supposed to. So afterwards people called Dolan "One Hand Dan" and questioned the validity of his ordination.

No, not over. Just exposed.

You resisters follow a bishop who chose and consecrated someone to be a bishop who didn't even know how to do a confirmation correctly (something any simple priest should have known, as it is regarding the proper matter of a SACRAMENT). You resisters follow a bishop who did not follow proper rubrics when he did a conditional ordination of a strange sedevacantist priest who shortly thereafter returned to the Novus Ordo. You resisters follow a bishop who, when he botched up the words of a confirmation himself, brushed aside the correction by the assistant priest and continued on without redoing it. You resisters follow a bishop who believes Archbishop Lefebvre was tainted with liberalism. You resisters follow a bishop who is a conspiracy theorist, and promoter of Poem of the Man-God. You resisters follow a bishop who follows and publishes and was secretly lead by a false apparition and false mystic for years. Should I go on?

THIS is the man whose judgment you trust enough to stake your salvation to? WAKE UP before you all lose your souls in following a a pied piper!!!

And THAT, Matthew, that is the reason I post on here.

I will trust my salvation to +Williamson way before I would trust to the Cult leader +Fellay.

And you, Green Scapular, follow a Bishop who calls the Jews our "Elder Brothers" and publishes it in the Angelus and who accepts Vatican II as reconcilable with tradition and accepts the Novus Ordo Mass as legitimate and not a "bastard" Mass as Archbishop Lefebvre called it.
