We need both fathers and mothers ordained to act in the Person of Christ.<br /><br />No dogma precludes ordaining women to the priesthood and the episcopate. However, our sacramental theology must be clarified to separate patriarchal ideology from revealed truth.Luis Gutierrezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121512812334031248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-24397256779840398132014-05-05T08:14:57.737-04:002014-05-05T08:14:57.737-04:00Anonymous,

As for your statement "and not even a suggestion that they should adhere to Church teaching is even mentioned", this university is required by Church law to conform itself to Church teaching, but refuses to cooperate. I think the fundamental problem you miss is that rebellious leaders do not submit to correction; only obedient leaders do so.

You need to realize that the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales and its bureaucracy has more clout than the USCCB (it covers a much smaller geographical area, for a start) and it centralizes matters which should properly be the concern of the diocesan bishop. <br /><br />There was never any criticism of Bishop Campbell on the blog, but some of his episcopal colleagues were no doubt irked by some of the comments about them (which were usually amply justified) and the machine swung into action.<br /><br />A definite pattern is emerging of cracking down on the orthodox and giving a nudge and a wink to dissenters; I'm not saying it's papal policy, since no one (Sandro Magister included) has a clue about where this papacy is going.John Nolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027156691859606002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-15010591167504183532014-05-04T17:50:44.759-04:002014-05-04T17:50:44.759-04:00How often you talk the talk but fail to walk the w...How often you talk the talk but fail to walk the walk.<br /><br />"Any comment that is vitriolic and disrespectful of the laity in general, and Pope Francis, bishops and priests in particular will not be posted!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-49846367656402472072014-05-04T16:21:31.797-04:002014-05-04T16:21:31.797-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rood Screenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09816036539243214384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-33274703027436014372014-05-04T14:27:25.298-04:002014-05-04T14:27:25.298-04:00During the 1970's when the Church was collapsi...<br /><br />During the 1970's when the Church was collapsing the ONLY bishop in the entire world to be corrected by Paul VI was Marcel Lefebvre. While Lefebvre was so "evil" as to want to continue saying the old Mass (which was never abrogated), the majority of bishops around the world were busy hiding pedophiles and allowing universities to become heterodox.<br /><br />The Franciscans of the Immaculate are being destroyed while the Jesuits continue to spread and promote dissent and error. <br /><br />Fisher-More College is crushed (and rightfully so by the way) yet Georgetown, and Notre Dame continue to promote immorality and heresy and dissent........and not even a suggestion that they should adhere to Church teaching is even mentioned.<br /><br />But I guess pointing out the TRUTH to men who refuse to confront error and evil is something they will not tolerate. Deacon Nick must be silenced because he is interfering with the dream that all is well, yet priests like Michael Phlager and Richard McBrien continue to spread error. Does anybody see a problem with this.<br /><br />Go ahead Father start the usual spin about civility, blah blah blah. Christ was really civil when he overturned those tables and took the time to make a whip and drive evil from His Father's house. <br /><br />Again.....Christ did NOT say to smell like the sheep. he said to feed them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-29921198783790090052014-05-04T12:16:28.408-04:002014-05-04T12:16:28.408-04:00It is very difficult to always communicate in a ma...It is very difficult to always communicate in a manner that is gentle that can also be understood as expressing a difference or correction. I agree people tend to be very rude on the Internet, but I think most of the time that is due to the mental intonation the writer may have versus that of the audience. But very, very often people hide behind a one way civility and faux respect to avoid being challenged. rcghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09131930849106490711noreply@blogger.com
