One of the professors publicly taught that the Lord did not physically rise from the dead, and Brian Harrison (then a seminarian) wrote to the Vatican about it. When Vatican sent the letter back to Sydney, Brian was of course dismissed from the Seminary. <br /><br />Thankfully, Father Harrison is a determined individual, and the modernists were ultimately unable to prevent his ordination.

Unfortunately, the very fact that such a demand must be made gives us our answer. In any case, we know who Bergoglio is. Of interest to me is who our Bishops are. One by one, they are showing their cards - and that may be the great hidden blessing from this. Silence from Archbishop Schneider and certain others is encouraging. My hope is that artillery is being carefully moved into position.

His Holiness Pope Francis "must clarify what he meant or Cardinals and Bishops must meet together and demand that he clarify the errors inherent in the Joy of Whatever you call Love."<br />It is that simple. <br /><br />Pope Francis alone must inform the Church as to the meaning of his Exhortation. Perhaps this weekend he will speak to that issue during his press conference (if reports are correct about the pending press conference). Pope Francis must level with us. Please, Holy Father, tell us the truth. <br /><br />Pax.<br /><br />Mark ThomasMark Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-50432810790917469362016-04-14T14:26:35.254-04:002016-04-14T14:26:35.254-04:00Damian Thompson wrote the following the other day:...Damian Thompson wrote the following the other day: <br /><br />"In a landmark papal document entitled Amoris Laetitia (Joy of Love), Francis outlined his vision for the church on family issues, urging priests to respond to their communities without mercilessly enforcing church rules: “Each country or region, moreover, can seek solutions better suited to its culture and sensitive to its traditions and local needs,” he wrote.<br /><br />"Can you spot what’s missing? Communion for divorced and remarried Catholics. That’s because the document doesn’t mention it – except in a confusing footnote referring to how the Church can help such Catholics grow in grace:<br /><br />"This exhortation encourages priests to reach spiritual accommodation with repentant divorcees – but the only hint that this may include admitting them to Holy Communion is banished to the above footnote. <br /><br />"'But the devil is in the footnote,’ conservatives are wailing already. Oh, please. If the ‘devil’ (i.e. liberals) has achieved his aim, why are the proponents of ‘reform’ in such despair today?"<br />-------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />What on earth made Damian Thompson believe that liberals were in "despair" in regard to the Exhortation? How wrong he was. His claim about liberals was a billion miles off course.<br /><br />Pax.<br /><br />Mark ThomasMark Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-25688287265064486642016-04-14T11:04:29.747-04:002016-04-14T11:04:29.747-04:00Catechisms are not infallible in themselves.
