Conservatives accuse the Pope of spreading heresy

Rome (CNN)Several dozen conservative Catholic scholars and clergy have charged Pope Francis with spreading heresy, a bold but perhaps futile salvo against Francis and his reform-minded papacy.

The widely publicized, theologically dense letter was delivered to the Pope with 40 signatures on August 11, according to its organizers. It has since gained 22 more signatures and was released to the public on Saturday. In a press release, the organizers say they speak for "a large number" of clergy and lay Catholics who "lack freedom of speech."

It's 25 pages. http://www.correctiofilialis.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Correctio-filialis_English_1.pdf I gonna skim through it if anyone wants to read it too (there's laughing in my head)


I'd expect many on here would be on the pope's side on this one.
 
Spreading heresy because he refuses to be an intolerant, bigot dolt like many of them?

They can drink bleach.
 
If only we could go back in time. Very sure the penalty for calling the Pope a heretic would be he would have your ass burned at the stake.

or maybe drawn and quartered. :eek:

Theologically dense = incomprehensible.

Freedom of speech, ah, there's the rub. You joined the club and you agreed to abide by its rules, even if they change. Now you don't like the rules... but one of the rules is to obey the rules. If you don't like the rules, you can 1) quit the club or 2) take over the club. But if speaking out against the club gets you expelled, well fuck, it's YOUR club, they're YOUR rules, YOU go to hell!

Speech has consequences. Accept them, or shut up, or try something else.
