Everyone has orders from +McKenna or +Pivarunas at this point.
New name and a new constitution would largely do it, although there was still a lingering doubt about the validity of the Holy Orders of Daniel Brown. I don't buy the SSPV smear that he was an Old Catholic, since he did publicly abjure Old Catholicism. But the Orders were certainly doubtful. At some point, they were regularized by the +Thuc line bishops.
While there was a significant house-cleaning and notable improvement, the CMRI has baggage by the truckload. See Bp. Schuckardt.
Schuckhardt was expelled by the other clergy of the CMRI. I don't understand how the people currently in charge of the CMRI can be responsible for an evil that they actively drove out of their community.
No, what you don't understand is that people can drive an evil out of their midst and yet still have baggage as a result of the intense, unsavory process.Some have argued that they should have changed their name from CMRI, as Schuckardt was far from the only one who left and, what is more, he was the founder. New name, fresh start; old name, no fresh start?FWIW, I taught at the Mount and lived in the rectory (and also taught/lived at the minor seminary in ID, although briefly). There's baggage. There's also a lot of good. Such is the case all throughout Traddieland.
