Paladin D Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 [quote name='the_rev' date='Feb 26 2005, 11:30 AM'] Would you three people be interested in writing a short 300-600 word bio about your bishop? Heck you could even send it to him if you wanted!

JP2Iloveyou Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 [quote]JP2ILoveyou- what seminary do you go to? I went to college at Mt St Mary's in emmitsburg.[/quote] St. John Vianney College Seminary in St. Paul, MN. I really have reservations about you guys doing this. It doesn't seem charitable or prudent to be "ranking" bishops. All bishops re the successors of the Apostles. In my humble opinion, I think it is quite arrogant of us to be saying, "Bishop So and So is great and Bishop So and So is not so great." On what criteria are we basing this? Also, rev, many bishops have thrown the Legionaries out of their diocese. I have many friends who have been with them for even brief periods of time and they have been pretty badly scarred. I would be VERY leary of joining them. I'm not trying to tell you what to do bro, just informing you of what you might be getting into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
