Veritas Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 + All SJVers past, present, and to be please check in here (I'm trying to do a head-check and can't remember everyone )
Moneybags Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I've been accepted and will be going to SJV in Minnesota starting in the Fall of 2007.
the_rev Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I'm applying with my diocese to go there this fall.
Moneybags Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 I know there are more SJV seminarians here. I believe they are on retreat now, so they probably won't post for a little while. Plus, the whole seminary will be at the March for Life in DC.
the_rev Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 St. Benedict, You may not realize but those at SJV are not allowed to post on forums, have blogs, etc. There only form of communication is email. However, I can tell you who are the seminarians from pm at SJV: Phikoz, Slywakka, Vianney, (there might be a few more.) Past: PioNono In Christ, Edward

[/quote] I didn't think so. I know some blogs like myspace are not allowed. But isn't Typepad and Blogger allowed? I thought I read that Fr. Todd Reitmeyer (who died), used to blog throughout the seminary and as a priest.

Edward [/quote] + I knew about the blogging, which is fairly recent (the last couple years), but I hadn't heard anything about posting in forums... I can guess, but I'd be interested to hear Fr. Baer's reasons.
Veritas Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 + I didn't know SJV is going to the March! I feel so out of the loop! lol. Seriously though, that is AWESOME!
the_rev Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 St. Benedict, I think this blog of a seminarian will verify that Fr. Baer in 2006 started this new rule. [url="http://collegeseminarian.motime.com/"]http://collegeseminarian.motime.com/[/url] I would think the reasoning is that maybe some people could have an online relationship and were not suppose. I also think that it is to keep what happens in the seminary in the seminary, not on the world wide web. A disgruntled college seminarian posting his feelings on the net, probably brought this inititive on anyways. Also in seminary you are not allowed to use instant message systems. I think forums are a no no. I know Pio nono was able to post on the forums duirng his seminary time there but that changed when he was in major seminary. In Christ, Edward
Moneybags Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Can we post on the Internet during breaks like summer break?
the_rev Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 St. Benedict. On your recent SJV trip, who did you room with, I would say why not send him an email and ask him. In Christ, Edward

[/quote] + That would be God and you. Good conscience formation would forbid one from doing what one has agreed not to do. Hold yourself to high standards -God is and so are we. Seminarians are models... we know you're not perfect, but at the very least, do what you're supposed and agreed to do. Be a man of honor, a man of character, a man of integrity.

Moneybags Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) [quote]And even if you can't who's gonna know?[/quote] If you are going to become a priest, you really need to learn obedience. Don't do something - [i]anything [/i] - against the will of your superiors unless it is against the teachings of Mother Church. I've seen some of your posts before. Honestly - and I mean this in the most charitable manner - you need to practice obedience. Fight not only for the unborn but against political correctness - fight for the Traditions of the Holy Catholic Church. Edited January 10, 2007 by St. Benedict
