Just a quick note – As a Catholic, I am offended and embarrassed by Bishop Williamson’s much publicized denial of the Holocaust. But you know what irks me even more? It’s when bishops and priests today ignore the holocaust going on right now in the form of abortion. And while thankfully there seems to be only one Bishop Williamson, there are way too many of the latter variety.

I don’t get it either. And it is just not abortion, it is even infanticide. Perhaps they are looking at the lay folk to take the lead.

In Spain it is said, “The woman is the queen of the home and the man is the king of the streets.”

It can be because of the donations from the liberals.

Just stop donating to their parish. If they are negligent or worst compromised, then as members of the Church we will be equally responsible if we keep the status quo. Give the donations to parishes that support life more actively.

First of all Bishop Williamson did not deny the holocaust. He just said there were 300.000 not 6000.000.
Secondly As a Catholic, I am offended and embarrassed by Mr Archbold who refuse to support Bishop Williamson brave crusade.
Finally I think that Bishop Williamson opened our eyes concerning the New Dogma: The killing of six millions jewish.

In my opinion, it seems as though diocesan priests do not wish to encroach on topics that may tip the apple cart, in this case , the collection basket. No we can’t blame the economy Because this behavior was evident during robust periods in the economy . It may not be all financially motivated, because parish priests do not want to turn away any of the congregation . You are more likely to hear from the pulpit “SAVE THE BABY WHALES” before you hear”save the baby humans”.

On the contrary, what Catholic Church needs is Williamsonism. Bishop Williamson and the SSP-X is the only one source of Faith.
Bishop Williamson is a Brave soldier of God.
There are only 4 Catholics Bishops nowadays unfortunately.

My pastor made the same comment [i.e. comparing Holocausts] in his bulletin blurb this weekend, and he begged any pro-choicers in the parish to repent. Made me feel hopeful about the coming season.
