I wo...Mary, thank you very much for your comments.<br /><br />I would like to address your comments in order:<br />1. Life is inherent for living human beings, however, I was addressing the term "inherent <i>rights</i>".<br />2. The relatively new idea of <i>rights</i> seems to denote a bestowed right, however, God has the will to take or give life. God's will is somehow missing from the rights equation.<br />3. God does change His mind. Moses and Abraham asked God to subdue His wrath. Jesus (God) asked for the cup to pass, but accepted the Father's will instead (God is a personal God). I do agree that God does not change His nature.<br />4. Could conscience be instead be viewed as valid/invalid or formed/malformed instead. The idea of forfitting (sp) ones conscience seems to be a dangerous idea. It could become valid at some point if malformed now.<br />5. I was analyzing the homily as an isolated thing. Thank you for pointing out the others (links?).<br />6. Yes, Catholics need to stay informed. This blog is part of that process (at least for me).<br />7. Thank you. Mass is always a blessing (esp. after reading Dr. Hahn's <i>Supper of the Lamb</i> book on the Mass).<br /><br />God bless you.Gutterball Masterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07950081663822774046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576925179178749401.post-63717654801084657122012-06-22T12:01:52.252-04:002012-06-22T12:01:52.252-04:00Gerry:

God is unchangeable and cannot contradict Himself. Otherwise God would cease to be God. Not possible.<br />4) Conscience is forfeited along with one’s rational, immortal soul, as conscience is integral to the soul, when one consents to violate God’s law. Abortionists, women bishops and heretics have literally sold their souls to the devil, and the devil does not take kindly to them.<br />5) Bishop Malooly wrote against Biden and was published in the News Journal and the Dialog.<br />6) The Pope and the Bishop write, very few read a) the bishops did nothing b) we were not informed. One must will to be Catholic.<br />7) Thank God you were able to attend the Mass for Fortnight for Religious Liberty. Bishop Malooly said the Mass at Holy Cross in Dover, Delaware for the Diocese of Wilmington.Mary De Voehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13772658924060834614noreply@blogger.com
