Author Topic: Watching videos from non-Catholics/videos which contain error or heresy.  (Read 216 times)

St. Thomas Aquinas spent a good portion of his life studying a non Catholic pagan named Aristotle and referenced him as much, if not more than the authors of the Gospel in his Summa. If I was driving and got lost would I need to determine if someone was a traditional Roman Catholic in order to ask them for directions?

Before I posted, I read the ops post carefully.

I discerned two things.

1. They were not talking about watching gardening videos. But videos about religion.

2. The very fact of asking the question, means they are most likely someone who is not super well catechized and is unlikely, for the moment, to be following the erudite discourses of Plato or Aristotle in their spare time.


So maybe next time, pause before responding.

I understand but will add that Mathew has posted many FE videos by individuals who aren't Catholic but the information therein is adjacent to our understanding of Catholic cosmology and quite useful. I have similarly watched videos by Protestants who go into great detail explaining the fraud of evolution in a very logical manner. I can only name a handful of traditional priests who cautioned against the jab whereas there were tons of secular people who provided great information about its deleterious effects. 
All of these things have a bearing on our faith.
Right now there are many traditional Catholics who are still captivated by Trump and may support the war on Iran or the genocide in Palestine. It couldn't hurt to look beyond the present day clergy, who have clearly dropped the ball on these matters that involve a complicity with grave sins.
