@nozima Na verdade, a virgindade perpétua é afirmada pelos católicos a partir de uma interpretação esquisita de Ezequiel 44. O fato de Maria não ter filhos não é prova de que ela era perpetuamente virgem. O único "texto" que "diz" isso é Ezequiel 44.
@gavinortlund At the very least, this makes it impossible to present the issue as though the Church clearly rejected that practice in principle at the time.
@gavinortlund So the implication is not hard to see: the papal condemnation points in the opposite direction, namely that burning heretics was not regarded as contrary to the will of the Spirit.
@gavinortlund I think Lila Rose is mistaken about the issue of burning heretics. In Exsurge Domine, Pope Leo X did not merely condemn some vague misunderstanding by Luther. The bull explicitly condemns Luther’s proposition that “heretics be burned is against the will of the Spirit.”
