His departure is predicated on the notion that he considers Novus Ordo Holy Orders (not sure if the Rite of Ordination or Consecration or both) to be doubtful ... whereas the SSPX has gone the other way on that.

I think extracting himself from OLMC (praise God!) is a MAJOR step.   There are other things that need to be said/addressed/dealt with, but for now, I think Fr. Hewko needs some space and time to work through things.  I know I would need it if I were in his shoes.


I thought of this too. I heartily agree.

There are many things to fix, mop up, clarify, etc. but let's not overwhelm the man. He's taken the biggest, most important step. Let's give him a bit of space and time to heal. I'm sure he'll think of much of this on his own in the near future.

As the saying goes, "A word to the wise is sufficient."

I didn't know Fr Hewko was against this site.  Great letter.

He has mentioned CathInfo (directly or indirectly) in sermon(s) in the past. He was just following orders, being a good trooper, etc. but like I said: I can only take a person's words at face value.

We all know what the official OLMC position is re: CathInfo.
The worst of them think we eat babies. Well, maybe not quite -- but close. I don't remember exactly what Fr. Hewko said about CathInfo in his sermons; it's been a while. I just remember it was negative.
