  • Quote from: aquinasg
    Pope Pius VI, condemning the Synod of Pistoia, Bull “Auctorem fidei," August 28, 1794:  "Or again, as if the same faithful had the ability on examining such docuмents to judge such matters for themselves without getting confused and avoiding all risk of error..."

    This is why we have a Magisterium. You think the faithful have the right to judge councils of matters of theology


    THIS IS the magisterial teaching of the Pope. The laity THEN did not have the kind of training or education or availability that we have today. He is saying heretics take advantage of the relative ignorance of the laity: AND THEY DO!

    And of course you don't address the issue, you just take one sentence you try to use (wrongly) to support your own notion.

    Nope, this is the teaching of the church, and we can say how it applies.
    'Take care not to resemble the multitude whose knowledge of God's will only condemns them to more severe punishment.'

    -St. John of Avila

  • Don't you just LOVE Newchurch?

    When it's time to 'venerate' 'Mother' Agnes/Teresa the heretic or the UnBlessed Wojtyla, they crank up the PR machine and everybody gets misty-eyed.

    As soon as it's time to take your faith seriously, they get all secretive and act as though you should just go home and let them 'take care of things'.

    That's how they insinuated themselves into the parishes in the first place... it was little by little, and by encouraging all of the SECONDARY responsibilities and/or benefits of parish life, like attendance at CCD for the kids, or a Ladies' Sodality, or K of C, they were able to get people believing that they had pretty much exhausted their duty to the Church, and their pastors and Bishops were handling the 'big, important stuff'.

    Meanwhile, that little leaven Our Lord warned us about was doing its work.

    Newchurch reminds me of the Pharisees...

    "If he were not a criminal, we would not have brought him to you."

    In short, if Newchurch says +Lefebvre is wrong, it MUST be because he IS, right?

    If +Williamson is ordered to stop pretty much all his public ministry until +Fellay is finished hobnobbing with Ratzinger, then he MUST be doing something wrong!

    Otherwise, Newchurch wouldn't be going after them like they have over all these years!

    Isn't it OBVIOUS? Just go read Faustina's book and pray the Ludicrous Miseries and let us take care of the [strikethrough]spin[/strikethrough], I mean 'work of the church'.

    Immaculate Heart of Mary, triumph soon.

    Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
    This evil of heresy spreads itself. The doctrines of godliness are overturned; the rules of the Church are in confusion; the ambition of the unprincipled seizes upon places of authority; and the chief seat [the Papacy] is now openly proposed as a rewar
