Pope: Nazis good, homos bad

What do you call it when your excommunication is reversed? Recommunication? De-excommunication? Whatever, Pope Benedict XVI just let a Holocaust denier back into the Catholic church.

Richard Williamson was made a bishop in 1988 by Marcel Lefebvre, a bitter old French liturgy queen who objected to modernization of the church. (Six Degrees Dept: Lefebvre founded the Society of St. Pius X, which is where Mel Gibson's father got those wacky anti-Semitic ideas.)

Williamson was booted in 1988 by then pope JP Part Deux, and made more recent news with a TV interview. Speaking to Swedish television late last year, Dick said that historical evidence "is hugely against 6 million Jews having been deliberately gassed."

Despite - or because of? - this jaw-dropper, Joey Ratz has rescinded the order of excommunication.

I guess the pope needs to sign up everybody he can, since he kicked out all the gay people. Showbiz, baby! Butts in seats!

I wonder if Williamson will have to pay some kind of reconnection fee, you know, like when you don't pay the cable bill and they cut you off?

I swear I was just going to write you to suggest Bishop Richard Williamson. What a cunt he is.
