  • I wonder how these Canons would affect the Conciliar Church? What does "are prevented" mean? Does it mean they can't and won't receive orders even if a bishop attempted to confer orders? Must they first be convicted of heresy, apostasy, or schism?

    IRREGULARITIES AND OTHER IMPEDIMENTS
    Can. 1040 Those affected by any impediment, whether perpetual, which is called an irregularity, or simple, are prevented from receiving orders. The only impediments incurred, however, are those contained in the following canons.
    Can. 1041 The following are irregular for receiving orders:

    2/ a person who has committed the delict of apostasy, heresy, or schism;

    "Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect."
    "Seek first the kingdom of Heaven..."
    "Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall render an account for it in the day of judgment"

  • A person who is ordained with an undispensed impediment or irregularity is validly ordained, but is ordained illicitly (illegally).

    Such a person would be forbidden from legally/licitly exercising an order received while irregular.  This has no bearing on the validity.
