You address him as father which is strange as he was relegated of his vows and no longer addressed himself as a priest for the rest of his life meaning he was Lacized. Martin said many questionable things over the years and for someone who claimed he never gave up his vow of chastity despite the fact that no longer presented himself as a cleric even though the ere is evidence he participated in a heretical and schismatic episcapal ordination he is buried next to the woman he lived
with for decades. Why would you consider this person an authority voice on anything with a track record like this? That’s pretty strange.

Fr. Nicholas Grunier had his priestly faculties removed because he refused to be obedient to the ordinary of the diocese he was incarnated to. Again, if these are the people you are appealing to for an opinion perhaps you should start with people who didn’t abandon their vows .
