Baldisseri, it should be remembered, was Pope Francis's right hand man at the disastrous 2014 synod.<br /><br />There is not a sentence which is not platitudinous, jargon-ridden, and essentially vacuous.

The natural law by its very nature does not depend primarily on revelation and God's word, but on human reason.....and over 40 years later Levada became prefect for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith !!"<br /><br />I would REALLY appreciate if someone on this blog with (compared to me) a serious knowledge of theology like you Fr MacDonald, or someone like Gene or Fr K, could briefly explain how Curran (and Levada apparently in the 1970s) and others are wrong in believing that the Catholic Church cannot teach the natural law infallibly.<br /><br />Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-23295687314012725142018-06-08T12:34:13.199-04:002018-06-08T12:34:13.199-04:00They want courageous suggestions.
