Oooh, theodicy. Legolas Send a noteboard - 09/12/2017 03:28:21 AM

View original postFrancis clearly now seeks to alter perhaps the most fundamental words of Christ. He should be pronounced a heretic and demand must be made that he repent immediately. If he fails to repent, he should be taken into St. Peter's Square and burned with no hope of salvation in this life or the next.

I don't have anything particularly insightful to add, but yeah, the text seems clear enough. And doesn't actually say that God does lead people into temptation - merely asks him not to.

Also, thanks ever so much for getting the song stuck into my head.

Into Temptation

That’s a much better song too *NM* Tom - 10/12/2017 02:05:04 PM 447 Views
That was just so he could murder all their sons and prove he is awesome. random thoughts - 11/12/2017 09:24:16 PM 676 Views
Never heard that one. The Trainspotting song “Temptation” is much better (Crowded House sucks) *NM* Tom - 10/12/2017 02:02:37 PM 409 Views
Auto-da-fé, what's an auto-da-fé? It's what you oughtn't to do but you do anyway! *NM* Roland00 - 09/12/2017 03:55:47 AM 430 Views

Does it have to be fire? I do not like the smell of burnt human flesh. Is it okay with the council Roland00 - 09/12/2017 11:55:31 PM 571 Views
Only fire can purify the stain of heresy. *NM* damookster - 10/12/2017 01:21:58 AM 458 Views
We have to burn you for blasphemy by comparing Francis to Christ Tom - 10/12/2017 02:04:04 PM 599 Views
I just find this deeply ironic that is all *NM* Roland00 - 10/12/2017 08:35:26 PM 391 Views
I'll search for an Italian transcript later, but... Larry - 10/12/2017 03:10:06 PM 806 Views
It's not subjunctive per se. It's a negative imperative, damnit. Tom - 11/12/2017 02:11:53 AM 621 Views

It's because it's *not* a translation issue, and Francis is deceiving the faithful. Tom - 11/12/2017 05:46:27 AM 578 Views
And what the fuck is wrong with this website? I didn't indent numbers and I used 1, 2, 3, 4 Tom - 11/12/2017 05:47:42 AM 711 Views
Incidentally, the numbers showed up accurately in my response while quoting, so who knows? *NM* TyrReborn - 11/12/2017 07:12:44 AM 421 Views
For the record, I'm not saying you're wrong... TyrReborn - 11/12/2017 07:11:59 AM 610 Views
You know, now that I think about it, Job isn't a good reference. TyrReborn - 11/12/2017 07:21:13 AM 727 Views
Tom is correct, but let me make the argument that the Pope is right Roland00 - 11/12/2017 08:49:35 PM 921 Views
If it is not a translation problem (and it isn't), then the Pope is changing the words of Christ Tom - 12/12/2017 03:43:50 PM 596 Views
I've read that "heresy" comes from words meaning 'to cut' or else to 'seize or take away' Cannoli - 12/12/2017 03:56:19 PM 640 Views

The vicar of Christ doesn't get to change the words of Christ. damookster - 11/12/2017 08:12:22 AM 698 Views
Fair enough. *NM* TyrReborn - 11/12/2017 05:44:46 PM 365 Views

The Pope is only infallible in certain situations. TyrReborn - 11/12/2017 10:40:28 PM 618 Views

Yes, and thankfully he wasn't making a proclamation ex cathedra. Tom - 12/12/2017 01:09:25 AM 619 Views
I mean...I love me some theology... Jeordam - 11/12/2017 10:56:34 PM 689 Views
The problem is that I don't think he was thinking at all Tom - 13/12/2017 06:22:14 PM 559 Views

Can't you just depose him. The Shrike - 13/12/2017 05:49:59 PM 580 Views
I could, but where's the fun in that? Tom - 13/12/2017 06:20:18 PM 674 Views
Because he would have to live with being deposed. The Shrike - 13/12/2017 07:05:35 PM 589 Views

How about we just send him to Avignon. The Shrike - 13/12/2017 11:31:25 PM 635 Views
If we send him in a soundproof box so all he can do is waive endlessly, sure! Tom - 14/12/2017 12:32:04 AM 645 Views
Schrodinger's Pope(s)? *NM* Roland00 - 15/12/2017 10:01:35 PM 353 Views
That would be fun. No one would know if he's alive or dead. *NM* Tom - 16/12/2017 03:50:13 AM 338 Views
Waive endlessly? Larry - 18/12/2017 03:06:39 AM 763 Views
It's the consequence of writing this in between contract revisions Tom - 18/12/2017 02:52:15 PM 811 Views
I've had that happen before, minus the contract legalese Larry - 20/12/2017 03:43:50 AM 623 Views
