Special Report: Five Myths about the Pope’s Anglican Ordinariates

Taylor Marshall does his best to dispel five myths about the forthcoming Personal Ordinariates that have arisen in traditional media and the blogosphere.
The New York Times, the London Times and almost every known newspaper has printed articles about this new announcement. The blogs are ablaze. However, there is a lot of misinformation churning around out there. I have collected five common misconceptions about the Holy See’s announcement. Each myth merits an informed and measured response.
Myth #1 The Pope is sheep-stealing...
Myth #2 Rome is preparing the world for a general married priesthood...
Myth #3 Rome has reconciled itself to the Protestant Reformation...
Myth #4 The Anglican Personal Ordinariates will be like Opus Dei (or they will be like the Eastern Catholic Churches)...
Myth #5 We already know everything about the Anglican personal ordinariates...

To read Taylor's explanations, read the full post on Catholic Online.
