Can. 1373 A person who publicly incites among subjects animosities or hatred against the Apostolic See or an ordinary because of some act of power or ecclesiastical ministry or provokes subjects to disobey them is to be punished by an interdict or other just penalties.
If you wish to address a poster use his name and do not make one up.
That is an ad hominem and is disallowed in the RF.
No one, lay or cleric, is allowed to dissent from something that is taught in the most official manner and definitively. Most official manner has to do with the manner of presentation, and definitive has to do with using language in such a precise manner that it can’t be more precise. There are lesser levels in both areas that still have to be taken seriously.
“Inadmissible” is not the sort of term that makes for a definitive statement, because, in terms of moral theology, it is a neologism It sounds to me like the language of a counsel rather than a command, which makes reconciling the statement with the previously existing teachings (which we also need to hold) easy enough.
“Intrinsically evil” is dogmatic language.
Counsels pertain to how to behave in particular concrete circumstances—and while counsel is worth weighing, unless the person offering counsel is actually present enough in the circumstance to be aware of all of the particulars, the conscience of the person on the ground is the ultimate moral judge.
Will do. Just having a little fun with ebb.
Whoa....how did I miss this??
