Oh no, that's not good. Pray for him, please!

"The World Must Conform to Our Lord and not He to it." Rev. Dennis Fahey CSSP

"My brothers, all of you, if you are condemned to see the triumph of evil, never applaud it. Never say to evil: you are good; to decadence: you are progess; to death: you are life. Sanctify yourselves in the times wherein God has placed you; bewail the evils and the disorders which God tolerates; oppose them with the energy of your works and your efforts, your life uncontaminated by error, free from being led astray, in such a way that having lived here below, united with the Spirit of the Lord, you will be admitted to be made but one with Him forever and ever: But he who is joined to the Lord is one in spirit." Cardinal Pie of Potiers

There will be no more Eleison Comments or sermons posted.

The Bishop is completely unconscious after suffering a haemorrhage in his brain It's just a matter of time before he goes to his eternal reward.

They are keeping him on life support until his family arrives and bids him farewell.

The SSPX will show their true colors in the aftermath of his death.
Put not your trust in princes, in sons of men in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs he returns to his earth; on that very day his plans perish.

So ... first things first ...

My first retort is that You've shown your true colours.

I am not 'resistance' ... and just because of that I've been banned from Cathinfo and another Resistance forum. Funny point is that I received an invite from the latter forum master and was banned in less than 20 minutes of registration.

Now the second point, given the mud that Bishop Williamson has slung at the SSPX shortly before and since his expulsion in 2012 - I wouldn't expect any effusive stories of reconciliation etc.

I would expect the same as what I heard in this morning's sermon:

QuoteThat Bishop Williamson had suffered a brain hemorrhage and was near death or may have died.  Please pray for him.

Apologies to everyone else.  Bonaventure's comment brought back memories of all the stupid arguments that were put forward about the alleged future compromise of the SSPX.

Anyway, praying for that Bishop Williamson to die a holy death.

You're damn right I have. My last correspondence with the Bishop, I asked him for his prayers and blessings for my wife's pregnancy. He responded by offering Mass for the 3 of us.

This has never been a pro Resistance forum, or an anti SSPX forum. I have no ideas about your strange "memories" being brought back.

I am not pro Resistance. Never have been. 


However, the reality is that the Society owes a period of mourning, prayer, and official announcement, etc.

They pulled out all the stops for Vitus Huonder, a man whom Tissier and Lefebvre would've considered dubious or invalid.

So I stand by what I said if they don't pay tribute or at least do some sort of sign of mourning, tolling of bells, etc. they will have shown their true colors. They have a lot of vocations and a lot of money in their coffers because of Richard N.  Williamson.

He said a novena of masses for my late mother even though she wasn't resistance but she always told me that 'there goes a great man and he should never have been kicked out of SSPX'.

Bishop Williamson. A genuine, honest Bishop. Who stood by what he said, truth and honesty. And was alienated because of it.
RIP  :pray1:  :pray2:
Nemo me inpune lacessit.

Today is the feast of Saint John Chrysostom.  If Bishop Williamson is "going to go" he couldn't have picked a better feast, both holy bishops who underwent their own unique martyrdom. Saint Jonh, pray for Bishop and for us!

Wikipedia have rectified their error. Bishop Williamson was dead yesterday but is alive again today. **

I am sure his Lordship would find the whole reporting shambles very amusing.

I said my decade* of the Rosary for him yesterday.  Every little helps.
:pray1:

* - In our family we alternate who leads says each decade between the family group saying it. Before your decade you normally give an intention(s).

** - edit: I was tempted to insert a joke there involving Lazarus but it might have been a bit blasphemous.    :)

An SSPX priest spoke well of him yesterday during the homily. He gave wonderful anecdotes of +Williamson during his time in seminary.

He has the classic dry, witty English sense of humor and common, down to earth sense such as few have
