how many monks have they?
Do you think the same about the other groups of "monks" and "nuns" who operate without Vatican approval such as the SSPX-friendly "monks" in New Mexico? Or do you just think that about the Dimond Brothers?
They are what could be called self-ordained.
Quote from: crossbroThey are what could be called self-ordained. All of the religious orders who resist the Novus Ordo are self-ordained. None of them have permission to act as a religious order from a true Pope. It is not fair to call the Dimond Brothers illegitimate and to accept other groups which are also acting on their own and are no more legitimate than the Dimond brothers, without any authority given to them by the Church.
No, not all religious orders that resist are self-ordained.The ordinations of both the priests and the bishops in SSPX are recognized as valid by the Novus Ordo Vatican.In fact, stating that they are self-ordained would be considered heresy because of apostolic succession.
As far as I know only 2. Brothers Michael and what's his face.No priests, they receive communion from an EO place.Sounds more like a farm owned by 2 people who are related to each other, a family. But what do I know ?
The difference being that SSPX has valid bishops.

I just think the Dimonds are crazy.
