This time, Milingo made it easy....

...as Dr. Edward Peters informs us.

This is because the confused Archbishop Milingo ordained four men to the episcopate...Dr. Peters says:
... the notorious Abp. Milingo has just walked right into an unambiguous excommunication reserved to the Apostolic See (1983 CIC 1382). The only canonical question I can see is whether notification of an excommunication can be sent via email. . . This ordination most definitely means something: it means the episcopal orders Christ entrusted to His Church have just been conferred on four patently ill-disposed men; it means five men are now automatically excommunicated; and it means Rome is squarely faced with a grave violation of ecclesiastical order.

Dr Peters will discuss this tomorrow with Al Kresta on the radio...
