Is Dr. Droleskey a priest?
This question has been asked many times lately especially since he and his family have not been seen in any of the Mass centers. Is he a priest?
-
I heard someone ask this before and I was surprised because I thought he had a wife and children. But I guess it is possible; stranger things have happened. If he was a priest though, wouldn't he tell people on his website?

Hopefully not.
It is a mockery of the Roman priesthood that married men seek orders in these days, and a disgrace and scandal that bishops oblige them.
If he was ordained, hopefully the reason he keeps mum about it is that he doesn't want to perpetuate that scandal.

I've heard the rumor. Perhaps we should ask if any member of CathInfo has seen Mr. Droleskey at any traditional chapel any time this year. After all, it is also just a rumor that "he and his family haven't been seen" at any traditional chapels.
Has anyone seen him in the year 2013?
-
This is strange. A person is rumoured not to be seen and is therefore suspected of being a priest.
:scratchchin:
:confused1:

Never heard of this rumor until I read it here.
He is married and has one child named Lucy.
-
He was asked directly and this is nothing but a rumor.
-
He was asked directly ...
By whom, and what was the answer?
-
I read this matter on "the Lay Pulpit" site. Also the site: Pristina Liturgica. Are these sites under the management of Craig Toth?
-
Another question. If Dr. D is a priest, maybe he would serve his own family and have no need for other mass centers, except for confession and Extreme Unction.
-
No doubt, sede vacantism was a financial disaster for his writing business.
-
No, he is not a clandestine priest - you can write to him yourself to confirm this, he is easy to contact via his website.

:read-paper: LOL!

This thread is a classic example of how rumors can be started or spread. With the internet, rumors can spread faster than a wild fire, but they can also be prevented with a bit of research.
Justitia Dei, why didn't you just email Dr. D yourself and ask him directly?
Thank you, Marsha, for your logical approach.

Thank you very much for your suggestion to Ask Dr. Droleskey about his ordination, which of course had already occurred to me to do. In fact, that is what prompted this tread in the first place, because when he was asked the direct question whether or not he is a priest, he at first refused to answer, and only after being pressed for a response did he finally admit the following: “I have been asked not to answer that question”.
It puzzled me why such a simple question could not be answered with a simple no. This caused me to search further, hence this thread. However, I was able to contact Bishop Francis Slupski, of Rockford, Illinois, and he admitted that indeed he did ordain Dr. Thomas Droleskey to the priesthood. In fact one of the witnesses is a regular contributor to this forum, and I received a personal message from her.
I have been able to solve my own investigation, and as far as I am concerned, Dr. Droleskey belongs with the Novus Ordo as they too will very soon be ordaining married men priests, along with appointing woman into very high positions in the Church.
As far I am concerned, I am not here to engage in the he said, she said antics, but rather to avoid the near occasion of sin, and at all cost to avoid Dr. Droleskey, no matter what title he may try to lay claim to - - or deny!

I emailed the Dr., linking to this thread and asking him to confirm or deny the rumor. As of yet, I have not gotten a response.

It seems as if your confirmation has already been pretty much refuted. I tend to believe that he was ordained.

I don't see Drolesky denying it. It's not an accusation of wrongdoing (even if some think it wrong), it's a simple question. Were you ordained or not?

He denied it directly to me. That puts the matter to rest. What more do you want than that!

I consider the following article of Dr. Droleskey, "Bookended from Birth to
Birth" of April 24, 2009 is a good reading.
Read it yourself on christorchoas.com

Perhaps if you had said that directly rather than just hint at it in your first post, there would be no further question.
Why did he deny it directly to you but tell another person that he's been asked not to say. All I know is that something if fishy and, frankly, I don't know who to believe and, ever since I read Droleskey's outright falsehoods in the Bishop Petko affair, I'm not sure I would believe him if he told me it was raining during a thunderstorm.

So why would it have to be all secret society? What exactly is the purpose of a secret priest in America?
