I disagree. The directions have been clear and are already understood. What is needed is consequences for disobedience. The bishops should be excommunicating individuals and removing the Catholic status of institutions.
“The bishops should be excommunicating individuals and removing the Catholic status of institutions.”
This political lunacy over Obama’s honorary degree and speech at ND has caused, or perhaps better said, has exposed for all the Christian world to see, the depths to which so many of the bishops of the Latin Church have sunk in their contempt for the canons of the One Church. Far, far more important would be to discipline the American bishops who violated the canons relating to diocesan boundaries and the anathemizing of heresiarchs like Martino of Pennsylvania.
Notwithstanding the simplistic fears of some Latins that the Latin Church will somehow collapse because of the words of an agnostic like Obama, all of you should be far more concerned that heresy is being preached by a hierarch inside your church. That, I assure, is far more dangerous than what went on at ND, the response to which lead to uncanonical acts and heresy.
