(Please see http://catholic-caveman.blogspot.com/2009/01/pope-bishop-forgotten-five-million-and.html)<BR/><BR/>Also, he isn't a "faux-bishop" as you say. He is a validly consecrated Bishop of the Catholic Church, albeit in an irregular status. If you should happen to have a problem with that, take it up with His Hoiliness, Pope Benedict.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps before you get so wound up in seeing someone's "sorry a$$" in jail... you just might want to get your facts straight.Kevin Whitemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019976622801954677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-67069703187590148552009-03-01T20:45:00.000-05:002009-03-01T20:45:00.000-05:00I had a Jewish uncle and I have two cousins who, t...I had a Jewish uncle and I have two cousins who, though practising Catholics, did in fact have a Jewish father. I don't tolerate anti-Semitism. One of my best and closest and dearest friends is Jewish. I have utter hatred and contempt for trash like the faux-archbishop Rickie, who deny the holacaust. I've seen the horror of Dachau, having spend a day there many years ago! Pure and simple, Ricky's nothing more than a complete pious phony fraud!<BR/>I hope he's extradited from the UK to Germany, and tried as a Holacaust denier. I'll laugh when I see his sorry a$$ in jail in Germany. It can't come soon enouth for me!!!BAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07942835187650902049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-54411665649438278362009-03-01T01:45:00.000-05:002009-03-01T01:45:00.000-05:00Folks, it is proven fact that it was not 6 million...Folks, it is proven fact that it was not 6 million. Probably not 300,000, but it is somewhere in between. That fact comes to us from Two well qualified Jewish historians from a university in Jerusalem. I have commented on this a couple of times below so will not go through the info again, but it was well covered back in 1983 by the NY Times and in fact the plaques at Auswichitz were changed with the number droping by 2.5 million Jews as a result of their efforts. However, the 6 million number was left alone even though it should have been reduced to 3.5 by this one camp alone. As to the gas chambers, what he said was an expert from America had viewed the gas chambers and because of the doors used doubted they would have worked effectively. The two Jewish scholars also found this to be true and that fact was part of their reduction along with a lot of other work. <BR/><BR/>But 6 million is now chisled in stone and sacred. So if you say anything that challenges this creed, you will be attacked.grampshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15458042134293544734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-77058495388732679172009-03-01T00:38:00.000-05:002009-03-01T00:38:00.000-05:00I hate to say this, but the Bishop has not truly a...I hate to say this, but the Bishop has not truly apologized, nor has he corrected his wrong impression of the Holocaust. There has been great damage to the reputation of Catholicism here, at a time when frankly, we don't need more. I realize that Williamson does not speak for the Church, but when a high ranking official speaks in such a way, it does effect the way people see the authority of the Church.<BR/><BR/>I AM proud of our Pope for demanding this Bishop apologizes and declare his knowledge of the Holocaust false. Bishop Williamson NEEDS to say he was wrong and repudiate his hopefully former views.StarbucksMom...https://www.blogger.com/profile/02394166346232806427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-22262092959926468172009-02-28T14:47:00.000-05:002009-02-28T14:47:00.000-05:00I'm not sure how many times this guy has to apolog...I'm not sure how many times this guy has to apologize..(heck, i'm of the opinion that he need not apologize, since he a. did NOT deny the holocaust and b. even though there's credible evidence pointing to millions of Jews being killed, the numbers aren't absolute)<BR/><BR/>It's a good thing my parish out in LA is ran by the Carmelites...I escape Liturgical Abuse for the most part.

The “evil” Traditionalists can never be forgiven for questioning the modernization of the Church and the “New Springtime” following Vatican II. To do so might mean that thousands of clergy, laity and theologians have been living a disastrous lie all these years….and you know we can’t have that. So there you go."<BR/><BR/>Swing and a miss. Sorry buddy but you give the Traditionalist movement too much credit. The vast majority of catholics I talk to have never even heard of SSPX or the traditionalist movement. They prefer to just go to church on sundays and holy days and do what the priest tells them. They have little to know idea about the battles over changes in the past decades and frankly don't care.<BR/><BR/>What has people in an uproar is that someone could have their facts wrong on something society holds as the most henious event in modern times. That he won't say he was wrong about the facts (he said he'd look into it) is what they won't forgive. Bringing in the other wrong doers is unhelpful at this point, though there is no doubt that they have done wrong. <BR/><BR/>Either way this primarily a media circus because the modern world loves to bash the Church.Baron Korfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07215856728880521796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-20356862315850024902009-02-28T11:55:00.000-05:002009-02-28T11:55:00.000-05:00This whole incident has gotten way more airtime th...This whole incident has gotten way more airtime than it deserves. No doubt, Williamson is a loon (actually I spent some "quality time" in the SSPX and pretty much all the bishops and priests are loons.)<BR/><BR/>To be fair Williamson <I>never</I> denied the holocaust - he questioned the numbers killed and doubted the existence of the gas chambers.<BR/><BR/>Somehow or another this got made into some sort of international incident, as though anyone should care what this guy says.<BR/><BR/>Meantime, Mahony is, as we speak, undermining the faith with the abomination he holds in LA and "Catholic" politicians waltz up to the communion rail.<BR/><BR/>It is hard to be Catholic right now but remember - the Holy Spirit will not be defeated.Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01562944653624224107noreply@blogger.com
