  • Imagine de Lugo went on Cathinfo and said "you need oxygen to live; without it you'll die." Then a horde starts freaking out, worried they're going to step outside any second and find a world without oxygen. Then the horde comes to the realization that oxygen is plenteous and really, really difficult to run out of. And they accuse de Lugo of overstating the necessity of oxygen.

    That's this thread.

    Well, I'v'e only really jointed the discussion today and haven't been following the thread that closely, but I haven't seen anybody involved in the discussion today "freaking out."

    Right, nobody's "freaking out".  We're having an argument/disagreement ... along the lines of many similar such prior arguments.

    I'd say it's: Imagine de Lugo went on Cathinfo and said "your mind can be read, but only by other Catholics and only if you're a minister and only when you're administering the sacraments." Then a horde starts saying, "No one can read minds."

    That's this thread.

    As if the subject of this debate debate is really that simple. It is not that simple. 
    "It is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church. I say it is licit to resist him in not following his orders and in preventing the execution of his will. It is not licit to Judge him, to punish him, or to depose him, for these are acts proper to a superior."

    Can you please provide a single instance of de Lugo suggesting a need to read minds?

    As far as I can tell, he’s saying there’s no need to do so.

    It is absolutely that simple.

    Its just not simple for YOU, because you’re one of the hysterically scrupulous who feel destabilized by the Church’s teaching on proper ministerial intention.

    Come on, Sean. It's not simple.

    I’m sorry you’re struggling, but to me it is Theology 101.

    I agree with you Meg: it's far from simple.

    I'm glad for you.

    But isn't there a beatitude regarding the simple?

    Likely for the same reason.

    I’ll tune back in, if the thread veers back on topic.

    Such claims have been made (i.e. the example of lack of matrimony intent), and historically/traditionally no annulment has followed, because it is extraordinarily difficult to prove that someone did not intend to do something that they did. 
    Of course it's difficult to prove an internal intention.  So when "Rifan says he feigned the words of consecration (which means he lacked both form and intention)" are we supposed to trust him on his word alone?  No evidence needed?

    But yet the Church requires evidence for the same situation in regards to marriage?

    Then you must believe yourself to be far, far above everyone else. You and de Lugo. You and De Lugo accuse Catholics here of adhering to condemned or heretical doctrine. Shame on you for your pride and arrogance. It is not that simple.

    Quite frankly, you’re a delicate soul, ignorant of Church teaching, who now feels needlessly destabilized to learn a covert contrary intention invalidates a sacrament.  That your emotional faculty predominates over your intellect is the cause of your struggle.  For those who do not labor under that baggage, this matter is quite simple.

    I will pray for your peace.
