[vent] My Catholic parents live in their own little world.

although that Truth can not be absolute

Although this statement may be an accurate reflection of opinions within the current Catholic hierarchy, most theologians before the era of modernism would disagree. For example, try reconciling what you’ve written with Aquinas or Bellarmine.

It’s precisely this kind of change in Catholic thinking (of which this is one example of many) that has lead many people in this subreddit to see Catholicism as inconsistent with itself, thereby invalidating it as a legitimate belief system.

I’m glad that you enjoy your faith and find meaning in it, but that does not make Catholicism’s inherent contradictions any less real. Some people also think Tupac is still alive, but that does not make him any less dead.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish here, to be perfectly honest.
