“I think it’s very convenient to try to hide behind Pope Francis and say, ‘Well, if you disagree with me, you’re really disagreeing with Pope Francis,’” the Illinois bishop told the Register. “But I think the reality is contrary to that.”
‘It is not uncommon today to hear Catholic leaders affirm unorthodox views that, not too long ago, would have been espoused only by heretics,’ wrote the Illinois bishop, who is chairman-elect of the U.S. bishops’ Committee on Canonical Affairs and Church Governance.
COMMENTARY: Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger had the answer to the recent question of the president of the Central Committee of German Catholics on women’s role in the Church.
COMMENTARY: The notion that doctrinal fidelity is somehow in tension or even at odds with pastoral concerns is both wrong and dangerous.
‘The importance of marriage and family to society, culture, the nation and the church cannot be overestimated.’
COMMENTARY: Cardinal McElroy’s recent public stance in favor of women’s ordination cannot be sustained by the historic and theological evidence.
COMMENTARY: While the Holy Father’s January interview with The Associated Press yielded some encouraging words, some of his actions make it difficult to interpret his intentions.
COMMENTARY: As Cardinal Pell, Bishop Bätzing and others would testify from different perspectives, papal interview controversies are not rare, but rarely corrected.
COMMENTARY: Cardinal Robert McElroy’s comments last week, arguing the synod is the correct place to overturn core Catholic teachings, have spotlighted how the Synod on Synodality’s leaders are themselves manipulating the process in pursuit of this same objective.
COMMENTARY: The sensibility on display in the cardinal’s recent article is not that of the Bible, the Fathers of the Church, the Second Vatican Council or the Catechism.
