Latin Confusion on the Ministry of Catechist

The problem with @PhyllisZagano's entire argument, of course, is that catechists already officially exist in the Church. They're specifically provided for in canon law. https://t.co/BIRbhNHeao

Not the Catholic Hero We Thought He Was?

Pasteur was a fraud. We still pay for his lie. Semmelweis made a good observation but misattributed the cause of what he saw. This too we still pay for. Bechamp, Bernard,Naessens these are the people we should be celebrating.https://t.co/SQRCrneXiJ

Cautionary notes: what Cardinal Ladaria did NOT say. He did NOT say that it would be wrong for a diocesan bishop to bar a pro-abortion Catholic from receiving Communion. https://t.co/0HlCgPnkG4

CNA/CWR: Pope Francis institutes new ministry of catechist by CNA Staff

Oddly, the new motu proprio doesn't even mention the Code where Catechists are described. It's as if the Holy See wasn't aware that they already existed in Church law. pic.twitter.com/ern4YxRFsH

Among other things, Cardinal Ladaria noted it was actually the CDF which suggested the US bishops discuss the issue in the first place. https://t.co/0A5PzAsymr

The Bergoglio Enigma

Disagree. Francis *almost* appeared out of nowhere: hated, discredited Jesuit ex-provincial with a past who manoeuvred himself into a bishopric and persuaded the St Gallen idiots that he was their man. Left-wing Peronist; doesn’t care enough about theology to be modernist. https://t.co/qXpz66Da3Z
