Here is what the Archbishop advised his bishops:

"I beseech you TO REMAIN ATTACHED TO THE SEE OF PETER, to the Roman Church, Mother and Mistress of all Churches, in the integral Catholic Faith, expressed in the various creeds of our Catholic Faith, in the Catechism of the Council of Trent, in conformity with what you were taught in your seminary. Remain faithful in the handing down of this Faith so that the Kingdom of Our Lord may come."

How is this in any way consistent with calling the Pope an antichrist? Clearly he was referring to the apostates who people the highest posts in the Vatican and not to the Pope himself--and in this, he spoke the truth.

As for your second point about playing silly games and working together--you trivialize the conflict by reducing it to such terms. The conflict we are in is not a silly game, it is a deadly struggle. There is no possibility of working with those committed to destroying the Catholic faith.

When a prelate begins a letter to his flock with:"The See of Peter and the posts of authority in Rome being occupied by anti-Christs-----",and several paragraphs later continues with:"I beseech you TO REMAIN ATTACHED TO THE SEE OF PETER," it's not hard to figure that his little flock is going to have a lot of confusion in the ranks.

Regards my trivializing the battle,you are wrong. I am aware that the battle is intense and of paramount importance and you misread or misinterpreted my plea for uniting and fighting the enemies of the Church.However,the game I was talking about was the one that you engage in with Catholics who have the same objectives as those of you who attend Tridentine Masses that are not sanctioned by the ordinary of the diocese in which you live. It seems that it would be in everyones' interest to accept that there is strong disagreement on several issues and let it go so that we can get the Barque steady and on course. I trust Christ will take care of those things which we cannot,if we pray,live as we should and fight evil.

I have been so interested in working together to save the Church and Western Civ that I frequently overlook the kind of contradictions I pointed out in the first part of this comment. It has taken a concerted effort to overlook them since I constantly notice them but don't comment for the sade of the Kingdom,please think about what you are doing,it is not helping the greater cause.
