Did Aquinas ever do this? I don't recall that he had ever done so.

Could you kindly share an estimate of how many pages of St. Thomas' work you have read, whether very closely or even in more cursory fashion?  Thank you.

Many people fixate on the canonical legal distinctions between the material and formal aspects of heresy and extrapolate from this jargonistic distinction faulty conclusions necessarily at odds with the more essential elements of faith intrinsically tied with the entirety of what it means to be Catholic. This is impossible and intellectually disingenuous.

Almost all of Traddieland fixates on the seemingly-endless dispute respecting the men in white cassocks from Gammarelli, ignoring the real and notably-larger issue: that Harlot headquartered in Rome is no longer Holy Mother Church.

Yes. Our Lord criticized the Jews he directly spoke with because they couldn't (probably many refused, though subliminally) read the signs of the times. There are of course many reasons why men don't, variations of "it can't be" or hesitation or doubt because of a "but that means" consequence which is inconvenient or disturbing in some foundational way: the new wine bursts the old wine skins.

But all of the signs are there, glaring and even palpable. And, yes, it is disturbing and very inconvenient. 

Thus, we see a plethora of responses adopted by the great majority men that spring from a similar motive of either evading or denying the reality.
