The oils can also be "topped up". So a priest can go a long time without going to a bishop.

The more important question is who is going to ordain his seminarians?

I have heard this, but it makes no sense. Why would the Church require old oils be thrown out and new ones obtained if the oils could just be topped up?
Also, how many times can they be topped up?
Can a priest do this several years in a row?
Where are the rules for this?
Off topic, but o.k.. Ordination is not the only need a seminary has for a bishop. There are minor orders. And a seminary operates uncanonically without a bishop attached to it.

No, it doesn't happen at all SSPX chapels.
It didnt happen to me at mine, and I make no bones about where I stand.
Bishop williamsons comment relates to priests who speak out, not congregation.

First: To be clear, those are not Bp. W's comments: he was quoting Bp. Fellay's comments from the June Cor Unum letter to SSPX priests.
Second: Please understand that the policy of "public dissent always harms the common good" is not just their policy toward their priests. Their priests extend that policy into the pews to the laity. There have been plenty of people here who have experienced it personally. It is not a fiction.

Yes, I understand.
I was only pointing out that not all SSPX chapels do this.

The manufactured scandal on this point is an epic fail.

Scandal is too strong a word.

The problem is that something which we should all be happy about has been kept a secret. It is not the first time.

All for fear of the pfeifferites.

There is no scandal.
It is a simple question: where do they get their holy oils?
You say they can be topped up. I ask:
Why would the Church require old oils be thrown out and new ones obtained if the oils could just be topped up?
Also, how many times can they be topped up?
Can a priest do this several years in a row?
Where are the rules for this?
