‘I think a schism is absolutely inevitable.’

Do you see my point now?

No, I do not. The Anglican Church doesn’t give a rat’s rear end about scripture, so why should I be surprised?

Besides, what guarantee do you have that the Magisterium won’t ‘unfold’ the idea of loving one another to include allowing homosexuality? The principle is the same - abandon scripture, which doesn’t change, and anything goes.

There was a time all Protestants were destined to burn in hell, until Vatican 2 decided that maybe some Protestants just didn’t understand the Pope’s authority, and were unwitting Christians outside the Catholic Church’s full fellowship.

The evolving doctrine of the Catholic Church allows most anything to happen in the future, depending on what seed the Magisterium decides is ready to blossom. And given the number of gay priests, are you REALLY certain that openly gay priests won’t someday bloom?
