Which ones? Were they infallible?
I haven't read Amoris Laetetia, but this seems to be an issue of subjective culpability. Though I think its grossly irresponsible to even mess around with that sort of thing. Those who are objectively in grave sin shouldn't be allowed to commune, period, even if God alone knows their hearts.
I'm not sure this is technically *heresy*, it seems more like gross pastoral negligence, but you probably think a Pope can't do that either.
Which ones what? What infallible?
Yeah. He makes it completely subjective and relative. If you feel like you can go to Communion, go ahead. Just discern properly.
This is called a sacrilege, ByzCat.
No, a Pope can't tell the whole Church that sacrilege is now okay. Or that adultery is acceptable. Obviously a Pope can't do that!
If he can, what the heck is the point of the Papacy any way??
It doesn't matter what I think, ByzCat. It's what the Church teaches. And the Church has told us that the teaching and commands of the Roman Pontiff can not contain pernicious error.
It's honestly just common sense. If the Pope wasn't protected by the Holy Ghost, then how do you know that what you believe isn't evil? Most of the Catholic Faith hasn't been defined ex cathedra. How do you know it's true and safe to believe?
