Stubborn twists Pius XII around to be saying the EXACT OPPOSITE of what he actually meant and then has the audacity to accuse the sedes of distorting it.
What Pius XII is saying is precisely that Heresy and Schism are NOT LIKE other mortal sin. Stubborn falsely alleges that "all mortal sin severs from the Church". That's a blatant lie and the opposite of what Pius XII was teaching. "Ordinary" (aka non-heresy/schism) mortal sin deprives the soul of life and makes the sinner a DEAD member of the Church, but he remains a member just the same. With Heresy and Schism, these sins, unlike the other mortal sins, DO sever from the BODY of the Church.
Dead members of the Church continue to be part of the body of the Church and therefore can exercise authority and jurisdiction. Non-members, such as those severed by heresy and schism, CANNOT exercise authority in the Church.
This is absolutely astonishing that Stubborn twists Pius XII into saying the exact opposite of what he was actually teaching.
Will his fellow R&R have the honesty to correct his malicious stupidity?
You're just desperate to maintain a vacant chair. Same o same o.
You are making PPXII to say what he does not say - you have him saying:
"For no other sin, however grave it may be, is such as of its own nature to sever a man from the Body of the Church, as does schism or heresy or apostasy." But that is not what he said. He said
"For not every sin, however grave it may be..." Now, you, the great wind bag, purport to be a knowledgeable brainiac, so the question (you will never answer) is - in context, what does
"For not every sin" mean?
This is absolutely astonishing that Lad twists Pius XII into saying the exact opposite of what he was actually teaching.
If sedes ever make it past that sentence, in the next sentence the pope goes on to say:
"Men may lose charity and divine grace through sin, thus becoming incapable of supernatural merit, and yet not be deprived of all life if they hold fast to faith and Christian hope, and if, illumined from above, they are spurred on by the interior promptings of the Holy Spirit to salutary fear and are moved to prayer and penance for their sins."
Which is to say that although all sinners lose charity and grace, it is possible for them to be moved to payer and penance for their sins. Even though it is apparent that heretics do not
"hold fast to faith and Christian hope", Pope Pius XII does not exclude heretics from being moved to prayer and penance - it is you who exclude heretics from any possibility of repentance.
