permitted to be Catholic?
On This First Day of the Pontificate of Francis the First, I'd like to offer some words. In recent days and weeks, I've heard and read many commentaries that presume to lecture the Catholic Church on how policies, dogma, traditions and beliefs either must be radically changed or abandoned!
Is the Catholic Church allow3ed to be governed by its' theology, ethics and traditions. May it conduct itself according to how they believe God is directing them to do so?
You would never impose such standards on others- Why do you feel that you have a right to dictate acceptable governing and conduct standards for the Catholic Church ?
