Nihil Obstat Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 "48. But in matters merely political, as, for instance, the best form of government, and this or that system of administration, a difference of opinion is lawful. Those, therefore, whose piety is in other respects known, and whose minds are ready to accept in all obedience the decrees of the apostolic see, cannot in justice be accounted as bad men because they disagree as to subjects We have mentioned; and still graver wrong will be done them, if - as We have more than once perceived with regret - they are accused of violating, or of wavering in, the Catholic faith." http://w2.vatican.va/content/leo-xiii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_l-xiii_enc_01111885_immortale-dei.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what this has to do with me getting a Church Militant tag. I also find it incredibly ironic that people are petitioning for me to get a Church Militant tag, given the events of the last half of the previous year.

I don't think you need some fancy smancy phorum label to affirm your Cathilic bad-assity. Your posts stand well enough on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
