  • Giacomo - Boca was the Pistrina Liturgica guy? He really didn't like Fr Cekada RIP or Bp Dolan, and seemed to hate them to a degree which was unreasoning. Perhaps they plagiarised part of a St Lawrence Press Ordo, perhaps Bp Dolan made some mistakes in his newsletter, but he was running like three anti-Cekada blogs. I guess he resigned or was dismissed as maybe a teacher or even priest, judging from my memory of its text. It seemed a bit excessive.

  • No, Ladislaus. In your reply #207, you are wrong, and you obviously have not read and digested the 36-page Pistrina refutation of Cekada's failed effort as well as Sacramentum Ordinis. Put very simply, Pius XII's Apostolic Constitution is an infallible papal declaration that applies only to the Roman rite. Pius specifically decreed that both hands constituted the matter of the sacrament of priestly ordination in said rite. Less than two hands = a defect in the sacrament. Inasmuch as the Church has not definitively pronounced on question of whether a one-handed sacerdotal ordination is valid or invalid, such a defective ordination is therefore doubtful. And a doubtful sacrament is no sacrament at all. Case closed -- at least until a restored Church decides to settle the question for good. In the meantime, faithful Catholics will avoid receiving sacraments from anyone so ordained (and anyone on whom such a person has conferred holy orders).
     
    And Emile, in your reply #209, you have borne out what I’ve said about those who do not bother to seek the truth. You only needed to pay a nominal fee (to Scribd) to find out – but you don’t want to take that step, because you’re really not interested in seeking the truth.  Thank you for proving my point.

    You won't take a few minutes to post what you would like us all to read?

    Thank you for verifying for me that you are not really interested in the truth of the matter (whether a one-handed ordination is valid or no) but are motivated primarily by a desire for revenge.

    In all seriousness though, I really have seen people waste years, even decades, of their lives letting themselves be consumed with vengeance. After a time it becomes part of who they are; they lose themselves and become their hatred. (Melancholics seem prone, I suppose because we have a tendency to replay events over and over in our mind to the point of losing sight of all else.)

    Whatever +Dolan, et al. did or did not do is definitely NOT worth your soul. The temptation of desire-for-revenge is just a cross that you have to bear, many others have more difficult burdens. Don't waste any more time, one does not know how much is left.

    P.S. As much as it stings your pride, you do have friends that really care and want to help.

    Nope.  It's a defect in the Roman Rite, but since it's valid in the Eastern, it's not an essential defect; otherwise the Eastern Rite would not be valid either.  Run along now, Boca.

  • Emile, in your reply #216, you have done it again: instead of making a sincere, open-minded effort to evaluate one’s position based on its merits, you went the “ad hominem” route and chose to attack me personally, asserting that I am “motivated primarily by a desire for revenge.”  “Revenge”?  Against whom?  I referred you to a site that – if you were genuinely interested in finding out the truth -- you could investigate.  It is a “pay” site (and the “link” is very lengthy), so it would take several posts (and more than your alleged “a few minutes”) to get it all in (as there is a “word limit” for each post) – and I didn’t want to fill up Matthew’s blog with a whole series of “posts.”  It just wasn’t feasible.  No, “revenge” had nothing to do with it (nor do I know who is supposed to be the target of my so-called “revenge”).  Again, it was about feasibility.  So, Emile, it seems that it is you who are “consumed with vengeance,” fabricating (and leveling) such a fanciful accusation against me.

    :confused: Uh, you do know that you can attach a PDF file to a post, don't you? It really would only take minutes.

    Just an aside, a major reason that Sacramentum Ordinis was issued was to allay doubts that the ordained person may have regarding the validity of his ordination. Also, there is no getting around this text from Sacramentum Ordinis:

    ”That no occasion for doubt may be offered, we command that in any conferring of orders the imposition of hands be made by physically touching the head of the one to be ordained, although even the moral touch suffices for performing a sacrament validly." (Pius XII, Apostolic Constitution Sacramentum Ordinis, DS 3861 [Dz. 2301]).”

    This is so pathetically silly!

    In either case, they’re joined at the hip.  One gets banned and the other immediately surfaces spouting the same nonsense.

    While that may or may not be the case, your previous comment, uttered with a great deal of certitude, is false.
