Do the Hyperdox Heed This?

Garrigou-Lagrange Account of Deification

Garrigou on how, by revelation, man is conformed to God, not God to man. When revealing, God remains the origin, measure, and end of his revelation.

"God demands that we grow. When he reveals himself to us, he seeks, in a way, to divinize us and not to be annihilated within us."

JD Flynn Thinks the Synod on Synodality Could Turn Out Well

Where's the Franciscan Reform of the Curia?

"It is possible that the cases of Zanchetta, Barros, and Ferreira are lingering examples of a different era, and excusing bad behavior with political boogeymen is a thing of the past -- but it remains to be seen." Analysis from @jdflynn https://t.co/gm9F8YBzhv
