If they're going to invest funds in research, it's their money, let them do what they want. As to "impact", for example, in the U.S? I'd refer you to previous encyclicals on things like birth control. Yeah, that went over really well... And their policy on abortion vs. how women here treat their reproductive "rights"? This is an event in search of significance, nothing more in practical terms. There is nothing quite as compelling as a bad idea whose time has come... Thulsa |

User ID: 65387561 United States 01/11/2015 09:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The pope's every fart, burp, and itch are not infallible or a matter of dogma. There are certain conditions that have to be met for him to be speaking infallibly (intent, audience, and he can only be speaking on matters of faith and morals). For something to be dogma requires either that the pope speak ex cathedra on the matter (and he can't in this case) or for an ecumenical council to declare it dogma, and that's not likely to happen. |

Quoting: Gan Ainm The pope's every fart, burp, and itch are not infallible or a matter of dogma.

LMAO what????!!! The pope is "the vicar" of Christ |

User ID: 65387561 United States 01/11/2015 09:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't see how the head of that nest of pedophiles and criminals could speak for God on any matter. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 64556810 I'm with you on that. I was just saying that there's no doom here, just one of the guys you mentioned above writing stuff that people will feel compelled to read and comment on. What he's writing doesn't even meet the criteria of his own organization for it to be of lasting importance. In short: a fart in a mitten. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 66297161 United States 01/11/2015 02:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In NONE of those three links can I find that exact info. In none of those links does it mention, for example: dogma. Nor do any mention: excommunication. Would love to know how you came up with the "breaking news" that you have reported. Doing a search online, the ONLY mention of your "breaking news" is a search link for a post over at LOP, posted just a few minutes prior to this one. And whaddya know, this post is an EXACT word for word copy of that post. Nice copy and paste OP. Please don't use 'bait' posts from other forums, to start some trouble over here. You posted this, and haven't been back to discuss. That's called a 'hit and run' post. We don't like those either. . |
