[Vision2020] Economist Rankings of the World's Greatest Challenges

Of  course, one of the "dogmas" of the Roman Catholic Church is belief in papal infallibility, and that infallible Pope sets out doctrine for the faithful, who then must, to honor Catholic "dogma" -- let's call it doctrinal tradition -- abide by his pronouncements.  I don't question that most do not, but it's incorrect to say that in matters of church teaching, the Pope considers dissenters from his revealed doctrine to be faithful Catholics.  

God is probably more flexible, but the Catholic church claims its origin to the Apostle Peter, the "rock" on whom Christ built his church, and what Yahweh likely allows is often prohibited by the Pope.  Catholics may do well to abide by Spirit-guided conscience, but the individual communicant has to decide if she can reconcile being a faithful Christian with complete adherence to Papal authority.  I couldn't, which is why I left the Roman Catholic Church 27 years ago.  I know many, many sincere Christians who are practicing Roman Catholics, but I believed then, and do now, that I could not be.

Ellen,     Most Catholics in the United States believe in birth control. Second, where did you hear that there is no "wiggle" room in having to believe everything the Pope says and still be Catholic?     I know of no Catholics that believe everything the Catholic Church preaches, including nuns and priests? The only thing Catholics are required to believe is the Dogma of the Church.      Best Regards,     Donovan

  Rep. Trail,     Has anyone suggested teaching people living in third world countries that most of their starvation and malnutrition problems would go away if they would not be popping out 8 babies a piece?     What the world needs is more birth control and education not to have more children they cannot afford to raise.     Best Regards,     Donovan
