I never denied that, I was looking for names and locations. Since these groups allegedly work in secret, they can be classed as infiltrators. The far Left has done more damage and don’t like the Church.
Marcel Lefebvre in France. Francis Schuckardt and Clarence Kelly in the US. Ottaviano in Italy. The whole shebang who rejected St Paul VI’s Roman Missal and withdrew themselves from any contribution to the roll out of the new form of the Mass. Now their ‘descendents’ are carrying on about how the liberals wrecked the Mass and the Church, when in fact, they were actually trying at least to think with the Church and implement the gift of the new form.I never denied that, I was looking for names and locations.

Have you ever provided names and locations for “The far Left”? Can you name any that have done more harm than Lefebvre?I never denied that, I was looking for names and locations.

This is easy to say when one is healthy and comfortable in a good marriage.Same thing with not being able to risk pregnancy. You just give it up. Nobody has ever died from being forbidden to have relations. The appeal to “conscience” is basically seeking permission from oneself to live in mortal sin.
Anti-Catholics seem unable to distinguish change from development. The Church has NEVER CHANGED any teachings!!But, of course, my point is not about slavery. My point is that there are any number of examples of Church teaching changing over the centuries (or evolving or adjusting or whatever one wants to call it.) That is simply historical fact, and I find it interesting that so many deny it.
Again, I am not an “anti-Catholic.”Anti-Catholics seem unable to distinguish change from development. The Church has NEVER CHANGED any teachings!!

OK. This whole Lefebvre thing again. A kind of obsession for some here. Please do not misdirect my comments by bringing up something else.
You asked for names, and you object when they are given?I was looking for names and locations. Since these groups allegedly work in secret, they can be classed as infiltrators.
There are a couple more posts after that one in which we discussed the situation.That one has been proved to be an urban myth.
Do you mean religious freedom and ecumenism? That sort of thing? Otherwise what are you referring to.I have found no evidence that most liberals did anything good. I saw mass attendance plummet in real time.
Yes Thistle, please give us an example of what you consider a doctrinal “development” that is not, in actuality, a change in doctrine.thistle:![]()

So it seems you are now willing to admit that the Church’s teachings develop. Maybe we have some common ground after all. Can you give an example of what you consider a doctrinal development which is not a change?
The doctrine of NO SALVATION OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. The Church developed its explanation of what that actually means.Yes Thistle, please give us an example of what you consider a doctrinal “development” that is not, in actuality, a change in doctrine.
Is the Nicene Creed an infallible teaching of the Catholic church?Infallible teachings cannot change
The original Nicene Constantinople Creed which was taught for hundreds of years declares that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father. Later on it was changed in Spain to read that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son, and still later the change was adopted by the Western Roman Catholic church, but not the Eastern Orthodox church and not the Armenian Orthodox church.The Church has NEVER CHANGED any teachings!!
I think this is a great example. The Church has maintained the core of the teaching of EENS - which is that salvation comes from God, through the Church. The Church has now clarified that salvation can come from God and through the Church, but without the person being a member of the Church during life.The doctrine of NO SALVATION OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. The Church developed its explanation of what that actually means.
This is a myth. The nuns were NOT given permission to use any form of birth control.So let me get this straight: a bunch of men are so out of control that nuns were legitimately terrified of being raped and the response was not to remove the nuns from the danger or restore law and order or to provide extra security, but to give them some very strange sounding drugs that would interrupt their natural courses?
