Who Will Budge First?

The new Vatican document “The Bishop of Rome” clocks in at around 43,000 words.

That’s somewhere between three to six hours of reading.

I Could Agree with This

but the inquiry might not lead to the desired conclusions. His premises would not align with the Natural Law.

Pro-LGBT German Cardinal Reinhard Marx has called for changes to ‘the theology of Holy Orders’ and said the Church should be subjected to a ‘social-scientific examination.'#CatholicX #CatholicChurch #Catholic #Germanyhttps://t.co/wPss6wUivs

Not "Ex Cathedra"

Something the debate over Dignitas Infinita has so far oddly neglected to call much attention to is that it seems that it has now been conclusively demonstrated that a pope can teach error when not speaking ex cathedra. For the new DDF document (issued with the pope’s approval)…

Who Will Finish Whom?

From the declaration of infallibility at Vatican I, a doctrinal ultramontanism has led many Catholics to equate the papacy with Catholicism.https://t.co/EeemlM5SeQ

A Review of Rist's Book on the Papacy

Here’s the first review I’ve seen of John Rist’s Infallibility, Integrity and Obedience, which I’m currently reading. Whatever one thinks of Rist’s own conclusions, he’s gotten started a conversation that is unavoidable and perhaps overdue: https://t.co/5B3L99HQRm

Now Do... Chalcedon

Really solid thread. The “Vatican Catholic” sedevacantists lied in their video on Florence-Ferrara that the union was agreed on by every Patriarchate except that represented by St. Mark of Ephesus. They don’t even know the basics of the topic. https://t.co/nipdE5CdEi

"dualism contrary to its whole history, but the worthy capital of the Catholic world, great with all the majesty of religion and of the supreme priesthood, a teacher and an example to the nations of morality and of civilisation" (Leo XIII, Dall'alto dell'apostolico seggio, 1890).

Franciscan "Collegiality"

JUST IN: #PopeFrancis limits authority of diocesan bishops, requiring them to obtain written permission from Rome before establishing a public association of the faithful. This marks a change in the Code of Canon Law, Book II Ch. II (can. 312 §1). Decree and relevant canon below. pic.twitter.com/LIkUbAs65V

Hermeneutic of... ?

This view of Catholic Moral Theology is wrong in almost every respect. He misunderstands the history of moral theology. Worst, he attempts to create a division between Amoris Laetitia and Veritatis Splendor that Pope Francis has rejected.https://t.co/APHOujrLeh
