These are recently released videos.

I apologise for the frustration you may have had trying to view them last time due to the unexpected request to disable them for public viewing.Below are the links to all the videos which are now uploaded:That being said, I hope the videos help to crystallise the situation for you as clearly as actually being present at conferences did for me at the time.Hugh

Matthew,
What are your comments regarding the video of Bishop Williamson posted yesterday (7/24/12) on multiple blogs where Bishop Williamson states [while commenting on the SSPX General Chapter:
"... they've [SSPX at the General Chapter] got to get rid of Bishop Fellay"
It's posted on CathCon and other sites.
What are your thoughts regarding this?
Thank you. God bless you.
Yours in Christ,
MarkA
Listened to a couple of these, they're pretty interesting. Good to hear him unedited and straight. Better to go to the source instead of listening to neo-cat blogs like the Crappy Minority Report that try to make him into an insane monster.
Ain't saying I agree with everything, but I mean I have more sympathy for him than the multitude of sneering bloggers who trash him. Unplug your computer and plug yer mouths, people!
From what I have read on the internet, it seems that Bp. Williamson is calling for Bp. Fellay to be removed from the SSPX. After he has already been excluded from the General Chapter, there may be a chance that Williamson could be "kicked out" of the Society. If this were to happen, would you still support him? I only ask because you,like myself, seem to be a traditional Catholic who is supportive of the SSPX and prays for them to be reconciled with the Holy See.

Bishop Richard Williamson, having distanced himself from the management and the government of the SSPX for several years, and refusing to show due respect and obedience to his lawful superiors, was declared excluded from the SSPX by decision of the Superior General and its Council, on October 4th, 2012. A final deadline had been granted to him to declare his submission, after which he announced the publication of an “open letter” asking the Superior General to resign.
This painful decision has become necessary by concern for the common good of the Society of Saint Pius X and its good government, according to what Archbishop Lefebvre denounced: “This is the destruction of authority. How authority can be exercised if it needs to ask all members to participate in the exercise of authority? “(Ecône, June 29, 1987)
