KnightofChrist Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 [quote name='AxFactor' post='1015728' date='Jul 1 2006, 10:20 AM'] So I guess my final question is that if I do take the job, will I be aiding in leading others astray even if i don't take their views seriously. I mean I am in no way an idiot when it comes to what I beleive in my catholic faith, and if I do this which I view as a job and nothing more. Will I be aiding in leading others away? [/quote] Yes, you would be. The money maybe good but is it worth your soul, or the soul of others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norseman82 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 So this must be where all the frustrated far-left fringe from the '60s, '70s, and early 80's ended up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jswranch Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 [quote name='Raphael' post='1015690' date='Jul 1 2006, 08:22 AM']The "Old Catholic Church" is a heresy which denies the infallibility of the pope and very quickly descended into liberalism and moral relativism after the First Vatican Council. I wouldn't want to have anything to do with these folks. [/quote] But do they have valid orders? Brace yourself for this one...... Back in my High Anglican days, I had a priest who had a joint ordination (Anglican 'bishop' and Old Catholic bishop laying of hands) in order to receive valid orders. At the time, I thought it was kind of cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I would be inclined to say no, since they ordain women priests, and have therefore lost the true definition of priesthood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcceNovaFacioOmni Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 There are some splinter "Catholic" groups that have former Roman Catholic priests that were validly ordained in the Church. Probably a case-by-case basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 (edited) Just typical "liberal religion." ("We want to go to church, but not follow any moral rules we don't want to.") [quote]8. As with the early church, we believe that the only sins that need to be confessed to a priest are: 1. Murder 2. Adultery 3. [b]Heresy[/b].[/quote] I found that ironic. I wouldn't take the job - helping these people would do nothing but help promote falsehood. Edited July 3, 2006 by Socrates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAF Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 They sound more like a club than a religious institution ordained by God. "We don't discriminate blah blah blah..." Give me a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
