My Take
Donald Sanborn is a figure I find genuinely fascinating, not because I share his theology but because of his conviction. Holding a sedeprivationist position within traditionalist Catholicism and leading a seminary means standing firmly against the post-Vatican II mainstream, year after year, with no expectation of broad approval. That kind of intellectual stubbornness is rare. Whatever one makes of his beliefs, running an institute and forming the next generation of clergy demands real commitment to an unfashionable cause. I respect people who refuse to drift with the current, and Sanborn, born in 1950s New York, clearly built his life around an idea he would not abandon.
