You are right! I guess it was not that simple. But after having talked with my sister and her husband and 7 children (one of whom is in a CMRI seminary in Florida), as well as many others who have fallen into these groups, I knew their arguments well and I wanted to at least address most of their main arguments. I hope my article reaches those who are tempted to join these groups before they enter, because after they enter these groups it is very very difficult to see the situation from the proper and true point of view. It takes a lot of humility to make the journey home to Holy Mother Church.
There is no CMRI seminary in Florida.
The CMRI major seminary is located in Omaha, Nebraska, and the CMRI minor seminary is located in Rathdrum, Idaho.
In fact the CMRI has no presence in Florida at all. CMRI Directory.
I suggest you reconsider and start your research from scratch as well as your quest for the Roman Catholic Faith whole, entire, and ever unchanging and the remnant but still living Church.
Epistle Of Saint Paul To The Galatians 1, 8-9:
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema.
9 As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.
The prime example to which this applies is this RAVENING WOLF AND FALSE SHEPHERD who would seek to lead the flock in following him to eternal perdition.
To learn the true Catholic Faith in refutation of this apostasy, I suggest you instead read and abide by Mortalium Animos by Pope Pius XI.
