A collective response to wlarue, JohnE, RL Water and Enda (Main Forum)

Brian,

I pray all goes well on the legal issue.

I'm in the process of writing a paper on Truth, Doctrine, & Faith and how they pertain to our Church. Just making it through the denotative meanings of those three words has been a considerable task as it has led me down many connotative paths. If we could only get it across to the hierarchy of our Church that if we were told the total truth about our "infallible" doctrine we would probably all remain in the pews, and open the doors for many more to return. The cosmology paradigm has changed and such ideas as original sin and infallibility are blocking us from a right relationship with the Divine.

Sincerely,
Richard
