In order to be such an expert in Canon Law, years of specific and specialized study are required

Then thank God we don't have to be a canon lawyer to know right from wrong, and truth from lies. Thank God we have our own minds to read and understand the not-too-complicated facts that priests were/are molesting children and Rome did/does/will continue to ignore those satanic activities until public opinion finally boils over and forces the RCC hierarchy to hire PR experts to quell the tawdry, destructive maelstrom of its own making.

claim to know more than the (gasp) experts!

lol. This has always been the papacy's refrain -- trust us; we know what you could not possibly understand.

Thank God for His perfect word. Thank God for His gift of eyes to see and ears to hear. Thank God for the renewed mind which (prepare to be astounded) can actually read and comprehend all on one's own according to the conviction of a good conscience.

Read the Bible. You don't need "experts;" only the Holy Spirit.

"...truth is loved in such a way that those who love some other thing want it to be the truth, and, precisely because they do not wish to be deceived, are unwilling to be convinced that they are deceived." -- St. Augustine, Confessions (10:23)

Do you claim that the Holy Spirit guides you? Do you claim that the Holy Spirit does not guide the Catholic Church?
