The current superior of the Society of St. Pius X has taken action related to the public statements of Bishop Richard Williamson denying the Holocaust. Over the weekend, Williamson was removed as director of a traditionalist seminary near Buenos Aires, Argentina. Williams held that position since 2003. At the same time, SSPX leaders in Italy expelled Father Floriano Abrahamowic, a priest that denied that the Nazi's used gas chambers for purposes other than "disinfection".
Along with the SSPX, the Vatican is in full damage control mode. Even Vatican friends and insiders, including Cardinal Walter Kaspar - President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity - are openly questioning the crisis analysis and crisis management capabilities of the Curia.
When will it end?
