He’ll probably join the other dissenters at one of the Old Catholic Churches.
The often forgotten third vow; obedience.
Seems he’s been stripped of his OFFICE, not his faculties. Around here, faculties refers either to academic staff, or one’s mental abilities.

The way I see it, the Priest is no longer a Priest and his followers are no longer Catholic.
They can call themselves anything they like, but if they arent recognised by the Church they arent Catholics.

Remember the incident reported in 9th chapter of Luke and also in the 9th chapter of Mark. Loosely translated as follows: John reports to Jesus “we saw a priest doing ministry in your name but we tried to stop him because he did not have faculties.” “Do not stop him“ Jesus said “for whoever is not against us is for us“ - However some institutional officials may quote what is attributed to Cardinal Cody - “What does the Gospel have to do with anything, anyway? “

This story makes me sad. Maybe it’s the picture, he does look lonely.
I wish they’d get rid of the leftiesas fast as they do the conservatives.
Deacon Greg needs to use correct terminology. Bozek has been dismissed. The word laicized is a secular term not found in canon law.
