The validity issues are all a big question mark for me. I don't know. I hear both sides of the argument and both make valid points.
Well you see,it is a grave matter, in question of RE-ORDAINATION,...making the Sacraments All & of them Questionable...Any of the priests who have lived before (and are still living during the time of Vatican ll ) Who were orained in the Old Way..KNOW THIS IS A VALID QUESTION and a gain I say a grave matter. The soul is stake here, not just oh well maybe New Ordo Ordainations are ok..maybe????? Are you willing to risk your soul on this?
I ask what would it hurt to be re-Ordained, by a Bishop, who was himself Orained the old Way?..Nothing... but the fact that it would be done in the same manner as all the saintly priests in Heaven who would not dare say or have anything to do with the NEW ORDO...well that is it. Ordained the old way by a true Bishop...or risk your soul.
Many, Many Traditional Catholics feel this way, the New Ordo is just no good..and if you are going to go the old way why not all the way young priest and get Re-Ordained !!!!
