Kathnet reports:
“The Society of Pius X on Tuesday for the first time clearly distanced itself from controversial Holocaust-denier Bishop Williamson, a member of the Society.”
Bishop Bernard Fellay, the head of the Society, said that he has become aware of the interview and “that it was obvious that a bishop speaks with religious authority only in matters of faith and morals.” The Society “asks for forgiveness from the Holy Father and from all men of good will for the distress that has been brought about. It must be clear that these opinions in no way represent the position of our Society. Therefore I have forbidden Bishop Williamson from making any further statements of political or historical questions.”
Thank you, Bishop Fellay. I was waiting for someone, somewhere to shut this guy up.
