So you admit that Williamson, at least, is off his rocker?
Sometimes I think yes. Sometimes I think it is his British disposition coming out and that he is merely posturing. Can't often tell from his writings.
He is not off his rocker near as much as 90% of the current U.S. Episcopate. Let's start with Mahony, Hubbard, Brown, etc.
Come on. Where is the real crisis?
Williamson is one of the most clear thinking people in the World today. Certainly one of the only Bishops with guts.
Maybe a few hot tempered 80+ year old Italians in Rome who still have the faith and no power can stand alongside him.
He's also the worst nightmare for Modernists ever. His clarity cuts through the gobbledygook of Vatican II-speak like a buzz saw.
Williamson is a delight, an inspiration and when you hear him speak, you realize what is meant by the "spirit of combat that Catholics used to exhibit."
On top of all of that, he's a very pious and holy man. Very gentle with people and an unbending defender of the rights and prerogatives of the Catholic Church.
