Oh Boy.

Yeah, everything is fine and the pope is always right.

I hope this is intended as an imprecise caricature. The pope is not always right and the current Pope would be the first to say so. Popes can and do screw up. I tire of saying it but Dante's Inferno is thick with popes.

There's enough controversy about what we actually teach. It gets tedious to have to explain that a lot of what we are accused of is not what we teach or think.

I think maybe you are missing the intent of what point I was making. If you look at some of the previous posts made, any mention of the church seems to be taken as an attack. The pope seems to be infallible to some here and any inference that he may have made a mistake is a condemnation to the church. What seems to happen then is heads go in the sand and we see or hear no evil from that point on. The fact still remains that these people shouldn't have been allowed back in the church if they haven't changed their views. In one article it says the guy will be doing a Mass for the pope so I guess he can still spew his stuff when he wants with the Church's approval. I was just pointing out, this will come back and embarrass the Church........again.
