Oh. The old “any port in a storm” mentality?
From the comments section of the article:A truly bizarre twist may occur should the Anglican communion in Peru eventually seek communion with Rome, huh?
I don’t know what it meant. Are they a branch of Anglican that calls themselves RC but aren’t connected to the RC Church? Don’t know what you meant by “any port in a storm”.Oh. The old “any port in a storm” mentality?
As to the final comment questioning the “negative” reply when “God is at work”, I must note that the Holy Spirit always unites. It is the demon who divides.
Sure seems so. If this bishop(?) is not on the list of Catholic bishops in Peru, then what, exactly, is he? I know, for example, that SSPV has “bishops” and at least one of its offshoots even has a “pope”, and they all claim to be Catholic. But they’re all just bogus. I’m not saying this bishop is SSPV, and doubt he is, but there are other groups like it, and I really do question whether he was ever a real Catholic bishop. If he isn’t and if he “ordained” those priests, then they’re not really Catholic priests either.
I was halfway assuming that some sort of investigation into their status was occurring. It seems that they were not actually Roman Catholic, and needed some place to call home. There was apparently little or no chance for them to enter the Catholic Church, so they looked around for an alternative.
Understand. So much for investigative reporting. Hard to keep track of who’s on first…so to speak.
The entire report is bizarre. Either these men are not actually Roman Catholics, or they are dissenters over the usual priestly celibacy/women’s ordination/same sex paradigm.
