Why, Mr. WLindsayWheeler, must we listen to your incessant race baiting, but even worse than that, your ignorant ranting against the Catholic Church? You seem mighty desperate to “prove” your position which, like the hundreds of Protestant sects, defines itself by its protest, and its severed relationship with, the Catholic Church. In fact, without the Catholic Church, you, and your false structure, would cease to exist. You were in schism in 1054 and you are in schism still. Yours is but one more heretical branch which has severed itself from the true vine and withered away, even if keeping some Catholic truths and traditions. FYI, “magisterium” means “teaching authority”, the very authority your false Church lacks; which is why you have had to come up with such a novel definition for the “magisterium” of the Orthodox Church. Yours is a consensus by fallible committee, which gets it terribly wrong. For example, your teaching on the non-existence of Purgatory is a classic example of having no authority to teach and no infallible capacity to understand divine revelation - you just don’t get it - so you shoot in the dark and have the audacity to list “demands” of the Catholic Church in matters of your man-made doctrines before you will grace us with your return to the only hope of your salvation. The laity has more of a “teaching” place in the Catholic Church than they do in the Orthodox - so who are you trying to kid? The very fact that we have an infallible teaching authority allows the laity to defend the Faith with an infallible certitude when they remain faithful to the deposit of faith and to magisterial teaching. Again, we know there is a Purgatory because our Lord, who speaks with authority through His Church, infallibly said so. It was to Peter that our Lord said: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" (Matt 16:19). The Orthodox have no such authority to “bind” heaven and earth on matters of faith and morals - none. Your so-called “authority” is ill-begotten, illicit and null and void. It is not true that “In the New Modern Roman Catholic Theology, ONLY the Magesterium has the right to teach”. There is nothing “New” about the magisterium and while every Catholic has the duty to profess and defend the Faith, only those commissioned by ecclesiastical authority have the said “right”. You need not take scandal by the fact that there has been an insidious infiltration of the Church by those who wish to destroy her - this is, after all, the stuff of innumerable prophesies, beginning with our Lord’s own warnings against the infiltratration of the enemy as being a sure signs of the end times. It reminds one of taking scandal at the humanity and death of our Lord. But this does not work in your favor - no, just the opposite - for why should Satan bother with the infiltration of a non-threatening man-made organization, such as your own, when his work there has already been done? But make no mistake about it Mr. Wheeler, while the Catholic Church must experience her Gethsemane and Crucifixion before the Son of Man returns, eclipsed by the visible outer corruption of fallible human weakness, there remains in her care the infallible and still intact deposit of faith - and the still pure and spotless Mystical Body of the Redeemer - whose children shall not abandon her in these days of diabolical disorientation - which tests the faith of all men. We would welcome your return and the return of all of those who remain separated from her - even those who rail against her like the misbehaving children that they are. Sent at: 2008 11 23
