It sends a message that we cannot stay in the past. We cannot demonise and slander one another. On the contrary, we must listen and learn, and appreciate each other as gifts.<br /><br />We should seek common ground and walk together from here towards deeper unity that must be visible, as Catholics and Lutherans have more in common than we often acknowledge. All participants seemed to agree with this. And the world truly expects it. We must also rediscover the power of the Gospel of Christ in our time.</i><br /><br />Can someone please explain this to me, explain how it agrees with the teaching of previous popes? <br />I thought that the <b>One</b>, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church already had the "unity that Christ prayed for"; I thought that the continued existence of the Protestant sects was a constant sin against unity.<br /><br />Heresy & schism anger me. Pretending that those who obstinately remain outside of the Church are good-willed fellow travelers on the way to salvation - is this not a disgraceful lie? If it is not a lie, then I don't know anything about Catholicism. To attempt to pass this indifferentism off as the Will of the Holy Spirit seems to me to be diabolical. The idea that we have to "mutually apologize", and that the Catholic Church somehow has an equal guilt for schism as the sects which have broken away from her, appalls me. <br /><br />When did heretics and schismatics go from servants of antichrist, to fellow Christian brethren with a different perspective on the gospel?Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13858873453982708283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348523519788188753.post-36320483960331139732016-11-03T16:45:02.521-05:002016-11-03T16:45:02.521-05:00There's nearly zero theological content on eit...<i>There's nearly zero theological content on either the Lutheran or Catholic sides . . .</i><br /><br />Precisely.<br />Hasn't the Holy Father complained about "humanist immanentism", or something like that? Isn't "humanist immanentism" precisely emptying all our speech of theological content, and replacing it with sentimental platitudes that appeal solely to our human comforts and desires?<br /><br />Was God's existence acknowledged at all during the event?Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13858873453982708283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348523519788188753.post-42934330357030070732016-11-03T10:49:38.682-05:002016-11-03T10:49:38.682-05:00The Special Snowflake of the Holy See
