The catechism has been made as elastic as has the Constitution of the United States.
Evil and revisionism surrounds us.

Ain’t that the truth!
Apparently, we’re also surrounded by Catholics who make stuff up (”infinite worth of the human person”) and then claim it’s “a timeless tradition of the Church.”
Either that, or you’re correct when you point out that I should blame BXVI for it. Problem is, I can’t find anything in his writings that comes close to this touchy-feely blather. BXVI seems to (appropriately) apply “infinite” as a descriptor ONLY to the Persons and Attributes of our Triune God. Is there something I haven’t read?
