I will ask the Fathers about the any potential roles for Bishops Faure and Williamson in regards to Bishop Ambrose.

I am also researching the seminary schedule and daily activities.

I think you and I both know that Fr. Pfeiffer will not have anything to do with these bishops -- and vice-versa.

As to your second point, this beggars belief. The seminary is not that big! It should take you 10 minutes during 1 meal to find out how many classes are being given, etc. You're there, man! It's a podunk seminary with a half-dozen seminarians. You can probably hear their classes from your kitchen.

It's like saying that I don't know the schedule in my own house, or what classes my children have at their homeschool. Easy enough to find out! Just take a break a couple times a day, walk through the living room, and see what they're doing! Or take the 30 seconds and ask the entire faculty (i.e., my wife) what classes they have each day.

You've been there HOW MANY DAYS now, and you haven't talked about SEMINARY stuff at all. Your blog reads like a Catholic "mommy blog" talking about food, with some "because I said so" gratuitous propaganda defending Ambrose's legitimacy thrown in here and there.

Not exactly very useful.

Good comment.  The insulting part is that he thinks or at least thought that people would buy it.

Manuel,

Is lunch over?  Did a good meal make the Fathers more talkative about the identity of the secret Bishops who are waiting to pop out?

And how did they finish their investigation into Ambrose before he was allowed to say Mass, when they said that they were still investigating long after he started to service their faithful.

These are questions which must be answered before any semblance of trust can be restored, if possible.

Manuel,

Christ knows all truth and who the secret Bishops are, perhaps the Father's in charity will tell the rest of us so that we  might have more hope for the future and you might remind the Fathers that secrets are not the Catholic way.

Matthew's on a roll today. Very good posts.

We aren't quite as gullible as some people evidently think we are, Manuel.

Many (myself, at least) have been doing gymnastics over the past few years to give the benefit of the doubt (and even at times to make charitable excuses) for Boston's idiosyncrasies- but Ambrose will be the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back.

Is OLMC hosting it's own hoe-down version Assisi IV? Any one who shows up can say Mass with a wink and a nod? Just BYOM.

Something new...................the Karaoke Mass................

Ambrose reached out to Father Pfeiffer. Pablo did not find him, and neither did Father. The research on Ambrose's background was done before Ambrose was allowed to say Mass in September. They contacted the Eparchy in Toronto, and many other places, found eye witnesses, and more, and their information showed that the claims of Ambrose are accurate in three main points:

That Ambrose is Catholic, not Orthodox.
That he was was ordained.
That he was consecrated at least once. By eight bishops, who did this after the contentious consecration by Cardinal Slipjy, who also consecrated others during that time.

Those points are what we discussed today, after lunch. [/quote]

Manuel, the above statement is confusing, at least to me. If Ambrose is Catholic, not Orthodox, then why the mountain of evidence, even from ecclesiamilitans.org that indicates that he was/is such? Also, what is the meaning of "he was consecrated at least once. By eight bishops, who did this after the contentious consecration by Cardinal Slipjy, who also consecrated others during that time." A valid consecration only requires that it be done once. Why by eight bishops? Does this mean Ambrose was repeatedly "consecrated" by various "bishops?"

I would be grateful for any clarification/explanation on this. Thank you in advance and God bless.

Manuel, could you please reply?
