Ladislaus, who should actively suppress error?

Anyone who is in a position to do so.  So, the father of a family in the family, secular officials in society, and the Catholic hierarchy among Catholics.

Okay, let's just stick with the secular officials in society for now.  Who in the Bıdɛn administration would you select to be in charge of suppressing religious errors?  Who would be best to suppress those who have an erroneous idea of the Blessed Trinity or the filioque, for example, or those who hold the error of sedevacantism?  Kamala?    And how would the secular official know which is the correct doctrine and which is the error that needs to be suppressed?

:facepalm:  We're talking about a catholic country, with catholic politicians or even a Catholic King.  Obviously, an anti-catholic society won't defend Catholic truth.
.
But overall, EVERY catholic has the duty to attack error and support truth.  That's why we get confirmed.  That's why it's weird to get paid for it, because it's a moral duty.

Xavier, that attitude of letting error thrive and combatting it with “truth” is one of the biggest problems with Religious Liberty.  This notion that truth will prevail when truth and error are both given freedom is incredibly naive.

Yes.  It's naive to think that human reason can outwit satanic lies.  As St Paul told us, we are fighting the uber-intelligent, demonic principalities/powers.  That's why error must be nipped in the bud, before it corrupts.

If the Faith were their primary motivation, then they'd work for free.  I'm not saying they are fake catholics, but there's just something uncatholic about selling the Faith through books, speaker fees, news stories, etc.
Do you work for free?

Taylor has a large family to support. If he cared about money, he could use his PhD to teach at a university. Or he could have remained Episcopalian and been financially comfortable.


At the root of some, not all, of these attacks on Marshall there appears to be a great deal of envy. To those who are green with envy I say, if what he has done is so easy, just do it yourself.
