You seem to be saying Catholics aren’t thinking people, or that thinking Catholics don’t care what Church law is.
When the Church officially says, if you do X, you are in grave sin and may not receive the Holy Eucharists, it has great bearing on Catholics.
I realize you don’t think this should be so and that’s your right and opinion, but as long as it so, it’s something that can be ignored or minimized as “one old guys idea”
It’s more than one guy developing Canon Law by the way, and it has been studied; I linked to a few further back.
thanks for your reply.
I am sorry, but Cannon Law has no basis in anything, except someone said it is so.If it isn’t in the Bible, then it has no place in Religious Circles.
