@RichardHanania I don’t think that video comes off how you think. People are allowed to discuss inferences that are weaker and stronger. Guy just came off as unstable bully
@BackwardsFeet@OBrienClanMan I don't think its a claim of entire incapacity, but rather a general deficiency. We all know a great Novus Ordo Liturgy is absolutely a unicorn. Its a Franken-liturgy. Sure if you do it with the full tradition informing the Ars Celebrandi it gains subjective legitimacy
@josephnollasj Yeah this guy is blaming the sexual revolution, modernity and its consequent licentious effeminacy (in the sense a scholastic would say it not as a slur) making the population softer and weaker with someone being a eunuch "for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."
@BishopBarron The pope is perfectly within his rights as pastor of the Universal Church to look at Caesar and say this action is immoral under this teaching.
It is within the right of Caesar according to this world to ignore this advice. Both must , to be operating morally do so in goodfaith
@BishopBarron Bishop Barron. This seems to me, but perhaps I am misreading, to sneak in the fundamentally liberal assumption about human society that the Church emphatically rejects. It is not just the Church teaches in the abstract, but the law is made in part in application to the facts.
@FeserEdward I think the idea that there can’t be a just war, pretty ludicrous. After all bad guys can also have these unprecedented weapons and might need to be stopped
@elleyou7@JDVance The pope has a flock that has to live in that country under those Muslim leaders. Abandoning them, so they have no outside voice or protection or making ugly with that government would kill people and for what.
Very good to see. I personally can’t immediately call to mind other examples of recent Popes speaking so clearly about the moral obligations to their host country immigrants need to consider before choosing to emigrate. Our bishops certainly never acknowledge this caveat
@RealLAnative@aykhanbay@CedarsAndSaints Imagine correcting the pope on something so basic and throughout scripture and tradition both and being butt hurt someone made fun of you.
BREAKING from the papal plane:
Pope Leo XIV rejects media “narrative” his Africa comments targeted Trump
The pope told journalists aboard the papal flight to Angola today:
“There has been a certain narrative that has not been accurate in all its aspects.”
“Because of the political situation created when on the first day of the trip the President of the United States made some comments about myself, much of what has been written since then has been more commentary on commentary trying to interpret what has been said.”
“Just one little example: the talk that I gave at the prayer meeting for peace a couple of days ago was prepared two weeks ago, well before the president ever commented on myself and on the message of peace that I am promoting. And yet as it happens, it was looked at as if I was trying to debate again the president, which is not in my interest at all.”
