Specifically, the title was the following:

"Dignitatis Humanae & Vatican II Reaffirm the Traditional Teaching of Christ’s Kingship Over Hearts, Minds and Wills, Families and Societies"

65 pages, with 60-plus sources, mostly original (encyclicals, councils and Scripture), heavily footnoted with authoritative Church documents from pre-Vatican II, Vatican II, and post-Vatican II, showing the harmonization. Thesis was accepted and approved by Holy Apostles College and Seminary. Am awaiting word on a "nihil obstat" and "imprimatur" for possible publishing consideration.

You are doing a fine job in your defense. 65 pages is a little bit long to post here.

All I did was quote three errors and an ex cathedra statement, and then ask if something posited by another poster was actually a doctrine per se.

That's pretty funny. Isn't a bit early to be making assumptions? lol.

It took you you 65 pages to "prove" "harmonization" of Dignitatis Humanae with traditional teaching? That's a red flag right there. And you had to rely on Vatican II and post-Vatican II documents? That's like asking the fox who ate the chickens.

By the way, I'm not surprised that Holy Apostles College and Seminary accepted and approved your thesis. Some of their summer courses this year:

STD 703 - Mariology This course will focus on the various dogmas surrounding Mary, including ever virgin, Mother of God, and free from sin. Some time will be given to new proposed dogmas, as well as Christological errors which create confusion regarding Marian dogmas. Apparitions may also be discussed. Fr. Joseph Olczak Tues. & Thurs. 1:30 - 4:15 p.m.

STM 635A - John Paul II's Theology of the Body This course examines John Paul II's Theology of the Body in detail and makes applications of his insights to a variety of contemporary issues including same-sex marriage, traditional marriage, contraception, abortion, and nature of the human being. The text is The Integral Person in a Fractured World by Dr. Donald DeMarco. This course will run for four weeks only. Dr. Donald DeMarco Mon. Wed. Thur. 6:30 - 9:15 p.m.
