People like the SSPX and Bishop Richard Williamson - antisemite, Holocaust denier, bigot, and Taliban-grade sexist.

And some DU-ers thinking he's an appropriate person to quote - GAAAAAAHHHHH!!!

1. SSPX = Society of St. Pius X?
Yeah, that's a lovely bunch. That term "traditionalist Catholic" sure covers a lot of territory. When I see it, I almost automatically think of Mel Gibson and his crazy father.

I posted about "traditionalist" Catholic groups in R/T recently. Got a response that basically said none of those groups are formally recognized by the Vatican, so they're not officially Catholic.

Even though they were all founded by devout Catholics, sometimes very senior members of the Catholic clergy.

Yet every atheist is somehow supposed to be the spawn of Stalin. Interesting reasoning.
