Yes. Because of the authority given to Peter, whose successor is the Bishop of Rome, he is the Supreme Pontiff and his decrees are binding on all Christians, except in the (exceedingly rare) case where sin is blatantly commanded. Since he is the arbiter of Canon Law, a Catholic is committing dissent against his lawful authority by not acknowledging that only ordained priests have faculties to exorcise.
How audacious, to proclaim that one is committing dissent, when all I asked for was proof of your allegations. You have failed to provide it. I suggest that anyone else who is following this thread to please consider the church’s teaching from her V-II dogmatic constitution quoted above and make up your own mind, or else believe what you will with regard to this poster’s contribution which bears no source proof.

Really, when it comes down to it, this subject matter will rarely be utilized by 99% or more of Catholics, so I do not see any value in debating it. If anyone has a further question about it, please contact your pastor or bishop.
