@RGuillimanXIII @ascent_of I agree. I just don’t know of any “malignant foreign communists” that are the subject of this discussion.

@StayRight239 @ascent_of We are commanded to honor our parents.
We are not commanded to submit to malignant foreign communists.

@RGuillimanXIII @ascent_of If a father says to his son “no playing outside until you finish your homework”, and all agree it would be sinful for the son to disregard his father’s order, is the father usurping God’s authority by defining a new sin?
English
@RGuillimanXIII @ascent_of The formal cause of every sin is the agent’s malice and contempt of divine authority. An act may be right to do when commanded (by legitimate authority) and sinful when not commanded or forbidden (by legitimate authority).
English
@logos_asarkos I distinguish, the law “promised life” according to the Lawgiver’s intention, because it foretold the Savior and condemned sins that separate the creature from his last end. It did not “give life” (“for if there had been a law…verily justice would be by the law”).
English
First premise is false.
“See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil, in that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, that you may live and multiply; and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you go to possess.” Deuteronomy 30:15-16 NKJV

Whatever command gives life (i.e., promises eternal life) belongs not to the law, since “the law was not given to give life” (Gal 3:21). But the Great Commandment gives (promises) life—“do this and you shall live” (Lk 10:28). Therefore, it does not belong to the law.

@MikeySante58410 @AStratelates “Catholic” can mean someone who was baptized and hasn’t been to Mass since confirmation, but still has an old rosary collecting dust in a closet. The Catholic religion is peculiar in that people continue to identify with it long after they’ve apostasized de facto.
English
@AStratelates I hope this chart is faulty because some of those “not wrong at all numbers” are way too high.

Well, if Carl is willing to make pride parades illegal in exchange for no sodomy laws I am willing to discuss.

Why is it wrong for two people to have sex in their own bedroom? And if you say “religion,” this is one more reason I’m glad I’m not religious.

@cath_menarion I think Leo would still be pope just by universal recognition, even if there was some procedural weirdness

At this point what would we do? Release the vote totals and see if Robert Prevost got 2/3 of the Benedict/JPII cardinals?
Josh Mansfield@WalkingHymnal
For the love of goodness sakes, are people really this delusional? And how in the world would the Promotor of Justice in the Vatian's civil court have any autority over the validity of a Papal resignation?? @jdflynn @canonlawyered please tell me this is fake...
English
@MarcelWizard1 @CatholicRob Actually, babysitting that child would be a work of charity. Any less time with his “parents” is a good thing.
English
@CatholicRob When I was in grad school back in the 2000s a similarly sodomitic couple "adopted" a child: those in my cohort were falling over themselves volunteering to babysit and help whatever way they could. Our culture is broken into at least two irreconcilable halves...

This platform doesn’t allow me to say how a just nation would deal with this…

@A_wild_fez @ThMichelet @StMichael71 Moreover they claim to have those extraordinary powers not only without or besides the Pope’s permission, but even against his explicit will.
English
@A_wild_fez @ThMichelet @StMichael71 The power of absolution requires not only holy orders but jurisdiction, either ordinary (habitual) or extraordinary (transient), and both require the Pope. The SSPX claim habitual extraordinary powers, which is nonsensical.
English
"In a typical parish, do we find the necessary means of salvation?"
Yes. No doubt.
To pretend *all* or even *most* Catholic parishes in the world are lacking valid administration of the sacraments or basic religious education about (e.g.) absolution is *patently* ridiculous.

Fr. Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX), addresses the question of his duty to consecrate the bishops, despite the absence of the Pope’s approval:

Transubstantiation refuted, it’s over Catholic bros.

Dr. John Frame@DrJohnFrame
When Jesus said to his disciples, “This is my body,” he cannot have meant that the bread and wine on the table were his literal body, for his literal body was behind the table, not on it.
English
@WireCatholic Traditionalists are working with a completely fictional idea of ecclesiastical history, where everything the Church taught before 1958 was so crystal clear as to make the work of the theologian redundant. That’s why.
English
How come you didn't need to "re-explain" "de-explain", "reword-re-explain" the documents of the Church before Vatican II... but after that every document needs more exegesis and commentary that the darkest passages of the Apocalypse? (including the council itself)
English
@JeremyLurks @OrwellNGoode Usually people just slow down or completely stop work 30-60 minutes before quitting time when companies do that, ensuring they’re not in the middle of anything when time’s up.
English
@OrwellNGoode I've seen this with "no overtime, no exceptions", people leaving the moment their shift is up no matter what is going on. It wasn't 'next day' but it ended quickly.

@FreeIrishman7 People that think they’re going straight to heaven don’t pray, observe Sunday, or go to Mass. Who is the target here?
English
Novus Ordos when they say the Divine Mercy Chaplet at 3PM on Low Sunday thinking they’re going straight to Heaven..

My wife isn’t Catholic. Shes been a total trooper after I converted. She cooks meatless meals every Friday. She went ballistic on her own mother when the latter used the lords name in vain, she makes sure the kids say their prayers. She recognizes the natural law. Incredible.

@PrayTheRosary Wife made meatless pasta cause she doesn’t know the intricacies. Good enough for me!

@funkpower316 @TaylorRMarshall @HoneyTongueMuse @DianeKamer Any Catholic can get an indulgence, they’re for the whole Church, not just the West.
English
@TaylorRMarshall @HoneyTongueMuse @DianeKamer Eastern Catholics don't do indulgences, the whole thing feels weird and legalistic to me, we have a medicinal view of Sin
English
There's a common misconception about the Divine Mercy Sunday promises. No, you cannot get a remission of the temporal punishment due to sin without being detached from sin on this feast day. A) St. Faustina never said that, and B) That's not how any of this works.
