Talk:Apostolicae curae

message: The defect in form was not the removal of the words, "Receive the Holy Ghost," as these words remained in the Edwardine Ordinal.  The defect was thought to be the removal of any mention of priestly sacrificing (in the case of presbyters) and the removal of references to "High Priesthood" in the case of bishops.

thread_title: Defect

message: What is the following sentence supposed to mean? "These references, however, were and are missing, at least according to the Anglican view and the Anglican interpretation-translation of those liturgies, in certain Eastern Rite ordination liturgies which the Catholic Church considers to be valid as to for." Was "as to for" supposed to be "valid as to form? This smacks of cut and paste with part of the lifted text cut off. At http://www.bookrags.com/wiki/Apostolicae_Curae I find the same text, but it says "form" where this says for. Is the latter site the source, or did it migrate from Wikipedia to there? In eiher case, I wil edit this article to say "form."Edison 17:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: From my understanding it would.  I don't know if there's a good quotable source though.  However, the "Complications" section is deficient in that it doesn't address the Anglican bodies that have broken away over the course of the 70's.  I think there is an article sent to the Vatican by Dr. William Tighe.  It might help to expand this section using quotes from the article:  http://merecomments.typepad.com/merecomments/2006/10/anglican_taxono.html Nickjost (talk) 22:18, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Modern complications - section 

message: The penultimate sentence of the section Anglican Response talks of sacrificial theology 'particularly'in the Prefaces to the various  Ordinals.I have checked out the first two in 'The First and Second Prayer Books of Edward VI'  Prayer Book Society, 1999, pp 292, 438  and can find no mention of sacrifice at all, nor can I find it in my copy of the BCP 0f 1662. Nor can I find it in 'Anglican Orders' CHS 1948. which gives the text of the 'Answer of the Archbishops'. Section 28, pp48-49, when talking of the Ordinals talks of succession and continuance.

message: In the interests of fair play may I suggest that the second paragraph in the section on the 'Defects of Anglican ordination rites asserted' be moved to the section on anglican response.

message: Who is Timothy Dufort and why is his opinion important?  There appears to be a missing reference in the text under "Contemporary doubts."  I dont think it makes sense to refer to a person without mention of his qualifications.--129.74.165.99 03:46, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I am still not convinced about Dufort.  It was 2 pages 25 years ago by someone who has apparently not distinguished himself--doesnt show up on google except for this wp article.  Does everyone who has written 2 pages in the Tablet in the last 25 years deserve a reference?  I doubt that even the Tablet would assert that everything it prints is encyclopedic.  I am sure there are some more reputable Catholic theologians whose opinions could be quoted here.129.74.165.194 19:24, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Dufort wrote just before the Pope's visit. Who he is matters nothing, what he says does. Perhaps it is possible to find someone who will say the same thing, but it is the song thast matters not the singer. It bears all the hallmarks of a piece of kiteflying, the fact that it was published at all was significant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frederick jones (talk • contribs) 17:00, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I am not sure why there is a section here on Orthodox opinion.  That seems to me to belong to an article on Orthodox-Anglican relations.  There is no evidence to my knowledge that the Orthodox Church ever published an official response to Apostolicae Curae.  IMHO, this is an article on Apostolicae Curae not on the general topic of Anglican orders.--129.74.165.99 03:49, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. Can anyone explain why the Orthodox section is here?EastmeetsWest 03:25, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I see reason for inclusion.  Rome sees Orthodox orders as valid and therefore de facto recognizes those who the Orthodox recognize.  The Orthodox treat Anglican orders on a case by case basis.  Rome rejects Anglican orders out of hand (though that's not entirely consistent).  There is therefore an argument that Rome can likewise accept Anglican orders on a case-by-case basis and be true to its own understanding (which it seems to be doing since I understand some ordinations are conditional when priests are received from Anglicanism to Roman Catholicism).  Total rejection by the East would seriously weaken Anglicanism's case.  This is one of many reasons why homosexual and female ordinations are so controversial.  If anything stating that female ordinations aren't a "settled" matter in Orthodoxy should be edited out.  While a case can be made for a sort of non-serving deaconess female ordinations are otherwise universally rejected. 12.44.178.253 19:51, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Apostolicae curae says that the Anglican Church lost her Apostolic succession, for the reason that the form of the Sacrament was changed in order to reflect a departure from Catholic truth about this sacrament. As apparently the Anglicans themselves changed it again later, but at a time where no bishop who had been consecrated before the first change was alive, it remains (at least) a tolerated opinion for Catholics also that the new form in itself would be enough (though not a certainty either). Even assuming that, however,it would be necessary to have a validly ordained consecrator (e. g. through an Old Catholic or Eastern Orthodox line). Of course, there is now even the additional complication (which Leo XIII. didn't yet know about) around of women Anglican bishops, whom even a Catholic bishop could not ordain to anything if he wanted to.--138.245.1.1 (talk) 13:39, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

message: Logically the Basil Hume section should come just after Dufort of the Tablet. Could we have a reference for the important Hume quotation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frederick jones (talk • contribs) 18:35, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

message: "A fairly common Anglican view was perhaps that of Randall Davidson, the next Archbishop of Canterbury,"
This is misleading as the quote is 70 years old and Davidson has been dead for years!  More over it is weasel wording to claim that this 70 year old oppinion is a "fairly common Anglican view".

replies: text: I've re-worded it.  The context in that paragraph is reaction at the time Apostolicae Curae was issued, not 21st century reaction. Kingdon 16:42, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

text: Your rewording of the rewording looks fine to me (I was writing in a weasely way, I guess, by trying to avoid anything which I had any doubt about - even if the doubt was due to my own ignorance). Kingdon 22:29, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Further to expand on Randall Davidson's views. The quotation is taken from his letter to Lord Halifax dated 24/4/1895.  He says 'I do not think that you yourself realise adequately the strength and depth of the present Protestantism of England' and goes on in this strain.  The whole letter should be read. He was then Bishop of Rochester and went on to become Archbishop of Canterbury. I was not claiming that his views are a fairly common Anglican view now, but it is probably still very much alive among Evangelicals, and as for the Liberals I would doubt whether  they care. Well, let us weasel away!    FJ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frederick jones (talk • contribs) 09:44, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Saepius Officio

message: Please could a citation be provided for the statement that that the Archbishops  asserted a "strong sacrificial theology "in the 1549. 1552, 1559, and 1662 versions of the ordinal.   Please where is  this in the Responsio? I cannot find it, perhaps for good reason, as I cannot find it in the ordinals either. The only real assertion of a sacrificial theology  is in Section 16 - 17 of the Responsio, beginning with the words "Further we truly teach" and is contained in the Prayer of Oblation which in the 1662 BCP is an optional prayer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.105.222.69 (talk) 12:28, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Since there was no direct link to the text of the bull itself, I added this. Then I changed the external links to Saepius Officio into similar footnote references. I also tidied up the formating for the remaining references.
On 17 October 2007, Secisek undid revision 165194145 by 163.231.6.68, with the comment "can you find a link not on an angelfire cite?". Since he gave no reason for his opposition to Angelfire.com and since the text of this work does not appear to be posted elsewhere online, I have re-added this link in the "External links" section. I think it would be worthwhile to integrate something about this response to the response into the article itself at some point.Echevalier 23:29, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: No, prior to his election, Pope Benedict seemed to claim the ruling was infaliable per the teaching authority of the magistarium, not per papal infaliability. The Roman Position is perplexing at best, given the "conditional" reordinations that they have performed and the presence of undisputed Orthodox, Old Catholic, and truely Roman lines of succesion in the Anglican episcopacy. -- Secisek (talk) 20:30, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing perplexing at all. A conditional reordination can have two quite unperplexing reasons: 1) failure of the individual Catholic bishop in charge through undue courteousness ("the reordination will work anyway, so about this question let's better let sleeping dogs lie"). 2) - and this, I believe, is actually more probable - precisely the fact that the convert in question has Orthodox or Old Catholic (or possibly Catholic) bishops in his ordination family-tree. As the article says, Rome observed that this shows that the Anglicans themselves perceived that the first form was defective and inadequate.[7] Rome felt that even if this addition could give the form its due signification, it was introduced too late, and why? Because the validly ordained bishops had all died by then.--138.245.1.1 (talk) 13:51, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
