VATICAN CITY (AP) — A Catholic bishop who denied the Holocaust has been threatened with expulsion from his traditionalist order for hiring a lawyer linked to the neo-Nazi movement.
The Society of St. Pius X said Monday it ordered Bishop Richard Williamson to fire the lawyer, who will represent him in a Nov. 29 appeal of an incitement conviction in Germany.
The court told the DAPD news agency that Williamson would be represented by Wolfram Nahrath, who has defended neo-Nazis and is a member of a far-right organization.
Williamson was convicted in April for saying in an interview that he didn’t believe Jews were gassed during World War II.
It aired days before the pope lifted Williamson’s excommunication — incurred for being consecrated without papal consent.

Posted on November 23, 2010 at 4:04pmFreedom of speech. This bishop gets persecuted while the muslims stamp on our flag and you hardly see it in the news. Where’s the truth about the infidelity of martin Luther king? And possible Communist connections, yet he gets a National day of recognition whereas on Good Friday the day that commemorates Christ’s Crucifixion, deserves no such recognition.?
Report Post »This is another smear against the Catholic faith. Just remember, the catholics have the guarantee from Christ Himself, that the gates of hell shal not prevail against, NO MATTER WHAT.

Posted on November 23, 2010 at 9:21pmTrotskyites run this country, thats why (their in both camps)! When the dollar collapses, the Hydra of multi-culturism is going to tear us apart. Then we will have a soviet style global system with one currency. Global Socialism is when the governments guaranties the capitalists (international bankers) taxpayers money. My logo is a Polish soldier fighting the red hydra of communism; DO BRONI.

Posted on November 23, 2010 at 10:31amI don’t accept the premise ” A far-right org.” I consider Commies, Nazis, State Capitalists (even tho they hate each other) at the left end of the scale. Various socialist states at the midleft. we started right as a new republic then as men and women sought power we turned into the semi-socialist country we are now. . Have a feeling that the TEA party can be our salvation.

Posted on November 23, 2010 at 12:12pmI know what you mean. Fascism is just a deferent variation of comunism. As far as i am concerned, anything that is anti-democracy, anti-republic or anti-God (be it Ala or The Lord) is not right…in more than one way that is.
