A Dominican priest who previously said sodomy can express Christ's "self-gift" criticized "the tyranny of tradition at the exclusion of creativity" in a recent talk about Amoris Laetitia.

Dominican Father Timothy Radcliffe, appointed as a consultor for the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace by Pope Francis, has a history of downplaying or outright contradicting the Catholic Church's teachings on sexual morality. He was the Master of the Order of Preachers from 1992 to 2001.

Clearly the leftists need to tear down all of the Catholic churches that offend them with Biblical truth.

A pro-gay priest is like a pro-communism capitalist.

One of Communism’s goals:

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”

Perhaps you'd point out how my post was inaccurate.

Perhaps you first read the forum rules on posting to caucused threads.

Think about how, little by little, over the last 40 years these progressive issues have become the most important topics to the liberal wing of the Catholic Church. There is virtually no talk of giving glory to God, the salvation of souls or following Christ’s commands to go forth and spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth. Everything is focused on man and on things of this world. That gives a clue as to who is ultimately behind this and it ain’t God. Still need to fight to good fight though.

Well said.

Yes, prayers for Holy Mother Church. We must fight for Christ’s Church as hard as we can.

I believe God will deal with this the same way He dealt with horrible crises throughout the Church’s 2000 year history. He will raise up Saints.

Stay and pray. Stay and fight. Stay and be faithful. St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta said the Lord does not ask us to be successful. The Lord asks us to be faithful.

Dear Lord Jesus, I beg you, defend your Bride.

Radcliffe looks like he also thinks it’s tyranny of tradition to expect him to wash his hair.

Yes. What gives me hope is the young adults and teens I am blessed to work with are a true joy and have a great love for Jesus and growing in their Faith. If you are interested and have a few minutes, take a look at this short video one of our young ladies (not quite 17) filmed at a year one Confirmation retreat this last May. Some testimony and then at about the 6 minute mark is praise and worship. Mrs. Shark24 is interviewed right before the praise and worship. Boy am I blessed with her as my wife. God bless and we will all keep praying.
