Catholicism ...
it’s “whatever”.
Is Kasper a heretic? Yes, Period.
But not estranged from the teachings of Jesus Christ as related by the Holy Bible. Divorce from a valid marriage and then remarriage is adultery. The world and reality doesn't change that.
What is the problem with this?
My wife and I have communion at home. It is a very simple thing that Jesus told us to do and, as often as we do it, to do it in remembrance of Him.
You don’ need to be in a church to do it.
Jesus said “Do this in memory of me”.
No conditions were added, no ‘confession’ requred, no limitations applied excluding those who have sinned.
Well, then, I want my $2000 dollars back for the annulment we recently paid for (after being married to one another for 35+ years). We didn’t have to go through all that ridiculous paperwork - with very personal, insulting questions, then the 3.5 year wait, but in the eyes of the Church it “used to be” a sin not to. However, when I look at the communion lines at Mass, I would bet that more than 1/2 of the people receiving were divorced without ever being granted an annulment.
Amoris laetitiae is a disgusting slap on face of the clear teaching of St John Paul II, not to mention Our Lord and St. Paul. What depressing times for the Church!
As long as Nancy Pelosi and Tim Kaine are served Communion, how can the Church deny it to anyone else?
What Kasper and others like him can do is cause a lot of people with their own agenda who love to scream and run around with their hair on fire to get their panties in a wad because that's a lot easier than doing the grunt work it takes to deal with their own Parish and the people in it to take back the Church from the pirates.
Of course, anyone who denies that Jesus Christ rules the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Jesus Christ Himself founded can claim Kasper and Frank have changed something and for them, sure, they don't have any faith in His Church anyway so they can grant Kasper authority he doesn't have and just squirm around in their little waded up pink panties.
He can take his paradiggem and shove it.
This is the exact thing Jesus railed against the Pharisees about - trading the commandments of God for the traditions of men. See: Mark 7.8 (which also quotes Isa 29.13 in Mark 7.6-7)
The Catholic church long ago abandoned Christ and embraced humans as the deliverer of gospel. This latest liberal pope proves it.
Catholics are Christians and they deserve better leadership.
I just remember what Jesus Christ said in Matthew chapter 19.
