"@EamonnClark Sure but this is an argument against the assertion made by the Holy See which is a legitimate point to make. The deep down problem is the undefined and equivocal use of dignity -- as a human and as a social creature for example"

"@RyanLEllis @oatney76 @WillsBlackwolf @One_That_Rules I would never encourage someone to go to an SSPX mass but I will point out that all the people on here who go on about "obedience" take a much more rigid attitude to the question than has the Holy See -- often making incorrect canonical assertions"

"@EamonnClark @StayRight239 @las_hispanias @MonasteryOCarm @elieselhachem The document says for instance that the matter of the sacrament of ordination is handing over the implements but Pope Pius XII in an actual magisterial document ruled that this is not the case"

"@BaldwinIVofJer @AlasdairAdam The problem is that there has to be some kind of "sunkatabasis" or "condescention" of God to man in order for God to speak to man in a way that is comprehensible to man"

"Of course anyone with a little bit of common sense knows that if the Vigan story were told objectively it wouldn't justify his behavior but it would also reveal some very unflattering things about the circle of people around Pope Francis"

"If God were to declare you to be righteous even though you really are not righteous isn't this false declaration contrary to God's truth and holiness Or am I just misunderstanding something about what people who support forensic justification think"

"@VeriCaritas @FeelsGuy2003 And it would be less necessary to do this if the Pope didn't see his role as updating church teaching and doing so with ambiguous statements which he does not connect to the Church's historical teaching"

"I hope that Pope Leo XIV's encyclical on poverty will be more like his namesake Pope Leo XIII's encyclicals: short high content density tightly argued no filler. That way people will actually read it and talk about it for more than X news cycles after it comes out"

"People who don't see this aren't comparing apples to apples. You have to compare how other groups of active Catholics would behave under similar conditions. Cross a group of lib boomers or charismatics or social justice Catholics or Republican catholics and see what happens"

"The problem is that this doesn't answer the question. Everyone agrees that human dignity is inviolable (provided that it is a well-defined concept to begin with). The question is whether a particular form of killing is a violation of that dignity"

"@RyanLEllis @WillsBlackwolf @oatney76 @One_That_Rules @SteveSkojec Canon law does say that attending an SSPX mass satisfies the Sunday obligation but as has been repeatedly shown this is not all that the Church's canon law or the moral law has to say on the issue. As has been shown the Church's law is not as minimal as you claim it to be"

"@RyanLEllis @oatney76 @WillsBlackwolf @One_That_Rules So all the people on here going on about "obedience" maybe themselves should obey what has been determined by lawful authority and not just make up their own rules and ideas and demand that other people obey them"

"With his answer regardin Senator Durbin it seems as tgough Pope Leo's honeymoon period is over and Catholic Twitter is going to return to its pattern of histrionic catastrophizing. Guys not every problem is a 10/10. Sometimes a problem is just a 2/10"

"@VeriCaritas @FeelsGuy2003 So this sort of study on the part of some people is only necessary because of Pope Francis- poor choices in how he exercised his magisterium"

"@sara_freeman1 I agree with that. I'm not trying to justify or excuse and angry response just trying to point out why it exists in the first place. Believe me I take plenty of abuse from the other side for insisting that trad responses are not prudent or shrews or helpful"

"An old confessors' manual that I have says that if a penitent asks about his mitigated culpability for an habitual sin the confessor should not answer him but state the teaching of the church and let the penitent make the inference"

"@VeriCaritas @FeelsGuy2003 There is no possible way for this very basic and obvious point of logic to lead to schism at all. In fact this is just classic Catholic theology. The first person to make this argument was Joseph Kleutgen the man who formulated the notion of the ordinary Magisterium"

"@BaldwinIVofJer @AlasdairAdam That's the gift of prophecy. He infused species into their intellects imaginations and sense organs. How these are related to Jesus' infused knowledge is a really interesting question actually -- and it sheds light on the sense in which Jesus exercised the munus of prophet"
