Well, you can just color me shocked. Because I just found out, according to netmilsmom, that Mary being the Co-Redemptrix, is not “Official Vatican Dogma”. It was merely JP II’s “opinion” of her co-operation. That would be post 137. So I’m guessing it’s not taught, never inferred, nor implicity believed. A new layer of opinion of dogma v. dogma of opinion.
Well Golly, the word “Co-redemptrix” wasn’t even used in the article quoted of the writing of JPII.
Can you find that for me?
Oh, it’s taught and published within a LOT of places within Roman Catholocism.
And the hierarchy is enormously supportive of such notions.
They are either applauding it openly or looking the other way.
Convenient.
It's not. There's a movement that seeks to have it defined as dogma, but it has not been defined as such and it's most unlikely that it will be.
Although the Scriptures are crystal clear that Mary cooperated in the Redemption in a unique way, and that's all "co-Redemptrix" means. I suppose if we really wanted to get rid of it, we could just edit out the first chapter of Luke, and that uncomfortable stuff in Hebrews about Jesus being "born of a woman", etc.
