Does anybody see a connection between these two quotes?
Maria
Um, Siamese Twins?
Err…Birds ov a Feather?
Err…Fruit fallen from the tree?
err, was it Fruit from the Fallen Tree?

did I guess it?
 
And what was the reason for first publishing the CCC in French?
For revision and proofreading purposes, I believe. They wanted to smooth out any rough spots and find areas that needed more explanation or clarification.
The new dogma of ecumenism???
I’m not exactly sure. 🙂 It’s certainly related to ecumenism, but it really has to do with the new doctrine that the Mystical Body of Christ resides perfectly (subsists) in the Catholic Church but that other Churches/ecclesial communities also are part of that Mystical Body. This is why they can function as means of salvation. It is why they contain “elements of sanctification and truth.” In other words, they participate in the Church’s role as the means of salvation!

I’ll bet Marcel Lefebvre would have liked to be on the proofreading committee.

Did you say we have a new doctrine? :eek:

How can you be really really sure of that interpretation unless it was first cleared by …Mama Bear06?

You’re making me dizzy.:hypno:

** Did you say we have a new doctrine?** :eek:
YES! Well, actually it’s an AFFIRMATION.

n Global Warming is another.
n Global wetting is another.

Yes. Exactly. I was shocked when I read that CCC 819 today; I already knew there were some dissident theologians who advocated that new doctrine and that they were active as periti (experts) at VII, but I didn’t know that doctrine was expressed so explicitly in the CCC. It is a very disturbing discovery to me.

I think it’s pretty clear as it stands; it doesn’t need a special interpretation. 🙂

Maybe the Conclavists were some of the proofreaders. :rolleyes:

There can’t be an affirmation unless there is a doctrine to affirm. In this case, it’s a newly expressed doctrine, so it can only be affirmed in the future. In other words, it’s not an affirmation yet. 😃

When ya get time, I’m sponsoring ya to Liberalism101, where you realize that logic has *no *part in ecumenical or spiritual life situations…jist FEELINGS.

Shouldn’t newly expressed doctrines be made known via an infallible statement?

The CCC was directly supervised by then-Cardinal Ratzinger…who is now pope.

Well, I would think Lumen Gentium would be such a statement. It is true that LG does not express that doctrine as clearly, but the CCC is supposed to explain VII, is it not? Indeed, CCC 819 quotes and footnotes LG 8, which in veiled language expresses this new doctrine.

Besides, I would note that it cannot be held that Pope Benedict XVI does not hold this new doctrine, as he was the head of the commission that produced the CCC.

Well, it seems to me this “new” doctrine is in conflict with EENS.
 
After reading thru this thread—I am wondering if the protestant side of my family is better off where they are at. I mean—they fall under “invincible ignorance” or some other type of “new understanding” and are on their way to salvation. By the looks of it—Catholics are the only ones that may end up in hell. It would be “uncharitable” of me–to try to bring them into the Church—and for them to suffer that type of pressure.

You read through the whole thread? :eek:

If I agreed with all that, I’d end up bein a sedevacantist!:eek: er even a Super Sede.:eek::eek: Therefore, it cannot be correct even if it’s true… err is it cannot be true even if it’s correct.
Now that’s liberal logic in action.
