Well, I saw this and had to log back in.

Heads up, people: Bishop Williamson apologizes.

Well, not really.

“I can truthfully say that I regret having made such remarks, and that if I had known beforehand the full harm and hurt to which they would give rise, especially to the Church, but also to survivors and relatives of victims of injustice under the Third Reich, I would not have made them,” Williamson said, according to the website of Zenit, a Catholic news agency.

“To all souls that took honest scandal from what I said, before God I apologise,” he said.

He did not say in his apology whether he had changed his views.

Pope Benny demanded a recantation. This, in my view, does not even come close. It’s more of the same “I’m sorry if you were offended” dodge.

If the Pope accepts this, I will truly take scandal.
