You see, you paint yourself into a corner with your overblown rhetoric. There are divisions in most areas of the Church. There certainly are in mine. SSPX is no different.

By continually spinning this "everyone is on the same page", "Fellay-good cop, Williamson-bad cop" stuff, you further erode your credibility.

We all have multiple sources of information in this internet age. Many of us have lives outside FR and see and observe things ourselves. You're not our unique source of information on SSPX. Williamson's position within the society and his attittude towards Rome and reconciliation are not classified information. His letter regarding yesterday's meeting can be read and understood clearly without the need for spin.

Silly.

No I don't.

There are divisions in most areas of the Church.

No there aren't. You are just imbibing in conspiracy theory. All the bishops in communion with the Holy See are fully on board and completely devoted to the Catholic Faith.

There certainly are in mine. SSPX is no different.

So you agree with Bishop Williamson then.

By continually spinning this "everyone is on the same page", "Fellay-good cop, Williamson-bad cop" stuff, you further erode your credibility.

No I don't. To say that Williamson and Fellay are on opposite sides is what is not credible.

We all have multiple sources of information in this internet age.

Some better than others.

Many of us have lives outside FR and see and observe things ourselves.

Possibly.

You're not our unique source of information on SSPX.

It's not the information. It's the speculation that's the problem.

Williamson's position within the society and his attittude towards Rome and reconciliation are not classified information.

It seems classified when you go onto neo-Catholic sites that refuse to actually post quotes in context and instead prefer to tell you what someone says and not show you. To paraphrase Bishop Sheen. There are plenty of devoted Catholic people that disagree with what they think are Williamson's postion and only a few that actually disagree with his real positions.

His letter regarding yesterday's meeting can be read and understood clearly without the need for spin.

Then why are the neo Catholics trying to spin it?

Silly.

Yes.
