@AndyBeshearKY Governor, how would these policies protect subsidiarity and private property without expanding the government’s authority? Expanding the government’s reach isn’t necessarily working for the American people.

I understand that one of the topics under consideration at the Consistory of Cardinals is synodality. I’m speaking as a bishop who was an elected delegate to both rounds of the Synod and Synodality in Rome and who has just presided over a local synod in my own diocese. Synods are good and useful tools for the determination of practical pastoral strategies, but they oughtn’t to be forums for debate regarding doctrine. When settled teaching becomes a subject for synodal determination, the Church devolves into relativism and self-doubt—as is clearly evident in the misconceived “Synodal Way” in Germany. I’m sympathetic with the founders of the journal “Communio”—Joseph Ratzinger, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Henri de Lubac—who broke with the journal Concilium the stated purpose of which was the perpetuation of the “spirit of Vatican II.” The great Communio theologians said that councils are indeed sometimes necessary in the life of the Church but that one sighs with relief at the end of a council, for the Church can then return to its essential work. As long as it sits in council, the Church is in suspense, unsure of itself, wringing its hands. It was precisely the perpetuation of the spirit of Vatican II that led to so much vacillation and drift in the years when I was coming of age. So, if we must continue with synodality, let it be dedicated to the consideration of practical means by which the Church can more effectively do its work of worshipping God, evangelizing, and serving the poor. And let it not be a defining and permanent feature of the Church’s life, lest we lose our verve and focus.

I am thankful for the clarification. Often when studying Theology it’s better to state what we aren’t saying than by starting in a place that could easily lead to a misunderstanding.

On this Solemnity of All Saints, it is a great joy to include Saint John Henry Newman among the Doctors of the Church, and, at the same time, on the occasion of the Jubilee of the World of Education, to name him, together with Saint Thomas Aquinas, as co-Patron of the Church’s educational mission.

@HenryKarlsonIII What era are you considering modern? Kneeling during liturgy can be traced back to antiquity, even though standing was the primary posture.

This is absurd…out of sync with lay Catholics? I have roughly 40 college students attend one of my daily Masses each week when their priest on campus takes his day off. Every last one of them kneel and receive on the tongue. Trust me they are far from “liberal” in any sense.

As older progressive priests retire or die, younger conservative priests will have a profound impact on parish life. A new study of U.S. priests gives us data on which to reflect as the church faces its future. bit.ly/4qeGAHY

@HenryKarlsonIII I’m very aware of the ancient Church practice for posture during the liturgy. I’m aware there was a prohibition on kneeling on Sundays and during the days after Easter. But calling it a modern innovation is misleading as it a more gradual development over time.
