Recent: Pope Francis on Contraception

  • “The last battle of the devil will be on marriage and on the family” were the very words of Sister Lucy.

    It is incredible to see the sins of the flesh, or should I say, the PROMOTION of these sins. And these sins are grave, but according to Pope Francis (who has NO authority to change a teaching that the Church has always taught) expresses the “possibility” that contraception will be allowed among Catholics. I wonder how many selfish Catholics will come forward to support this immoral change and live such a beastly life? 

    God created and designed the marital act. It is ultimately His- all of it and all it pertains; He set the rules, if we wish to partake in being co-creators with Him to bring about the next generation- we MUST keep to the rules. NFP is also another issue because it is used today as “to avoid pregnancy until we’re ready” nonsense. A pope is NOT allowed to tell the faithful to prevent children for our own self-gratification. Such feelings within this act is fleeting. Such a sinful life is just not worth one soul!

  • Wow.  He has the temerity to cite St. Vincent of Lerins to promote Modernism, that true Traditionalism means doctrinal progress (vs. "backwardism").  This is as about as open an articulation of Modernist heresy that I've ever heard.

    But... but... isn't it "backwardism" to go back to the early Church to re-appropriate alleged liturgical practices?  To leapfrog right over the 16th to 20th centuries to get back to the 1st and 2nd?

  • He gave some examples.  So, for instance, the Church used to say death penalty was permissible, but now the "Church" says it's not.

    So, by "progress", he means a contradiction of the Church's previous teaching, not an expansion upon or elaboration of it, or a new application to particular circuмstances.

    This is in fact the very definition of Modernism.  And then he has the temerity to cite St. Vincent of Lerins as a defender of Modernism.
