I read his Holiness’ UAE statement. I have read/listened to several noted theologians take the paragraph in question apart as pertains to the perennial teachings of the Scriptures, Dr.'s Of the Church and the Magesterium. It is troubling.
His Eminence Cardinal Muller’s document is in keeping with the perennial teachings of holy Mother Church.
I do not know if this was directed at the Holy Father or the wayward Bishops and Cardinal Marx of Germany.
What I do know, without the need of “interpretation” is that on occasion the Holy Father says things that are in stark contrast to the Perennial teachings and that is troublesome.
But we do have, especially in this age of the internet, access to over 2000 years of the Church’s teachings to draw from. Councils, Dr.'s, Saints, and Sacred Scripture.
I think I will stand with that, and not trouble myself with “interpretations” or Pretzel logic to determine what words mean.
