[Unam Sanctam]

Religion should be nice. It should have no doctrines, since that would create division. There are no moral absolutes, no objective truths. In an ideal world, you should not be able to put a cigarette-paper between a Catholic and a Buddhist. Since we are all going to Heaven, regardless of our conduct on earth, what is the point of all this violence on Calvary? Of course, we need some ritual and collective spirituality: so, let’s go and hang some cuddly toys on the railings of Kensington Palace. What we need is a one-size-fits-all, syncretic religion, centred on the United Nations; an ethical code that does not restrict us from the perpetual gratification of all appetites.

This statement is neither an accurate reflection of Catholic teaching or the teaching of the current Pope. It is slanderous of you to claim that it is.

This statement is neither an accurate reflection of Catholic teaching or the teaching of the current Pope.

Let's see now, let me rack my brain, which pope was it who tried to place an honorary red cardinal's hat on Hans Urs von Balthasar, the teacher of "universal salvation"? Was it Pope Leo XII? No, I remember, it was just a couple years ago, and it was Pope John Paul II. We can thank divine providence that von Balthasar dropped dead just 2 days before the ceremony, so his heretical teachings were never crowned with this papal sanction.

And let me think, who was the pope who appointed Cardinal Kasper to the most visible position in the entire Vatican hierarchy where he can travel around the world telling people of all religions that there is no need for them to become Catholics? It was pope John Paul II. He's the one who picked Cardinal Kasper and placed him in that job.

And who was the pope who convened the 2 scandalous Assissi meetings? It was the same pope as the 2 questions above, and the same pope who is still proclaiming that "ecumenism" must be the guiding principle for every action of the Church.
