re: #500 Spare O’Lake

Why was the lifting of the ex-communication not accompanied by or conditional upon the formal expulsion of this Jew-hating holocaust denying Bishop?
Can we not all agree that this evil person should not be an official of the Church, and that by not insisting on his removal the Pope has created the impression that the Church condones those views?
NO WHITE SMOKE.

i always thought “ex-communication” *was* expulsion…….

i’m not up on the issue you’re discussing, but if the facts are as you’ve related, i support your views.
