We turn to you in the way of our ancient ancestors, grateful for the abundance of food and festivity that surrounds us this time of year.
Keep all children safe as they embark on their Halloween revels.
Light their way through the dark night and enfold them in love.
May the real treat in their lives be grace that multiplies in depth and breadth as they grow older.
We pray this with all the saints in heaven.
Amen.
Happy Halloween Everyone!
However, we believe there can be salvation outside the Roman Catholic Church. Sedevacantists’ fidelity to tradition reflects a desire to honor God. Lumen Gentium (n. 16) teaches that those who sincerely seek God and follow their conscience can attain salvation, even if not in full communion with the Church. This applies to Sedevacantists, just as Unitatis Redintegratio (n. 3) recognizes baptized Protestants as “brothers” in Christ. Therefore, I choose not to debate Sedevacantists, opting to pray for them. What might I ask, would you respond to a Sedevacantist @Right Wing Catholic Activist?
I'm curious as to how we approach these struggling Catholics who yearn for a traditional Church, but are introduced to flimsy Vatican II doctrine (among other silly choices that have downplayed tradition). We are told it's fallible, yet commanded by Pope Benedict XVI:
"It must be stated that Vatican II is upheld by the same authority as Vatican I and the Council of Trent, namely, the Pope and the College of Bishops in communion with him, and that also about its contents, Vatican II is in the strictest continuity with both previous councils and incorporates their texts word for word in decisive points (...)"-The Ratzinger Report, 1985
