This is the bishop who not only ordained me to the Diaconate, but was instrumental in making sure I got into the program to begin with. The liberal powers to be (my former pastor) would have seen to it that I didn't get ordained because of my orthodox beliefs.

I had three orthodox friends in their late 30's who attempted to enter the priesthood about five years ago. One was kicked out of St. John's in Brighton in less than a year. Another left the FSSP seminary because he alleged that homosexual behavior was being tolerated. I don't know what happened to the third.

I'm glad you made it in. I'm glad to have an orthodox bishop. I hope he cleans up Holy Cross next.

Only time will tell.

We just ordained to the Dominican Order the sixth priest from our parish in that many years. I am personal friends with all these young clergymen. Everyone of them orthodox and faithful to the Magisterium. I can tell you that there are problems, someplaces big problems, with homosexuality at St. John's, at the Mount, and even out in Rome at the Angelicum and Gregorium. We had one of the vocations leave the seminary because of the hassle they gave him over his view of homosexuals in the seminary there. They didn't like his orthodoxy at all. Our seminaries still need lots of house cleaning.

My father left a seminary in Kansas for similar reasons some forty years ago, but being a naiive farm boy he didn't realize that's what it was until years later.
