“So you agree with your so-called “catholic theologian” that non-catholics can and do hold valid clerical positions within the Catholic Church?”

No. Did I say I agreed with him? No, I did not. Once again we see that you are simply wrong consistently.

“By the way, the book you quoted has a forward written by Cardinal Kasper, another catholic theologian who happens to question the historicity of Christ’s Resurrection and who is now pushing for Holy Communion for adulterers.”

And again, that has absolutely no bearing on that matter at hand.

“You reject my sources such as canon law and the Catholic Encyclopedia yet you google up books written by heretics.”

Nope. I rejected neither of those sources. I just pointed out that those sources had no actual bearing on the point you were making. Citing what the Catholic Encyclopedia (which does not have the status of being a current or authoritative source in the Church) says about pectoral crosses tells us exactly nothing about what Pope Francis thinks of the orders question regarding an Anglican archbishop of Canterbury. You consistently misuse sources in that way.

No. Did I say I agreed with him? No, I did not.

If you don't agree with him, why did you post his work as a source in your defense? You have yet found any source that backs up your preposterous claim that pectoral crosses can be passed out to lay people as mere "gifts", like rosaries. Your source disapproved your entire argument. Do you not realize that?

Or do you, like your so-called "catholic theologian" source, really believe that Anglican clergymen hold valid orders? You have yet answered that question.
