“Because of the very

This Vatican Council likewise professes its belief that it is upon the human conscience that these obligations fall and exert their binding force. The truth cannot impose itself except by virtue of its own truth, as it makes its entrance buy phone number list into the mind at once quietly and with power.

36 explicitly requires the conscience to be Catholic and for the Catholic conscience to guide every action of the person all the time – no excepti dominion.“

“In the formation of their consciences,

the Christian faithful ought carefully to attend to the sacred and certain doctrine of the Church. [Cf. Pius XII, radio message, March 23, 1952: AAS 44 (1952) pp. 270-278] For the Church is, by the will of Christ, the teacher of the truth. It is her duty to give utterance to, and authoritatively to teach, that truth which is Christ Himself, and also to declare and confirm by her authority those principles of the moral order which have their origins in human nature itself.“

So Vatican II states obviously that humans can know how to behave via the Truths taught by

the Church, that they are obligated

to learn said Truths, and to live their lives – via a properly formed and informed Catholic conscience – according to those Truths.

Sedevacantists often pick on one point that they use to claim that the Vatican II Council is invalid, that being on religious freedom. They believe that in the past, many Popes have taught that religious freedom is against the teachings of the Church. Quoting again

Religious freedom

, in turn, which men demand as necessary to fulfill their duty to worship God, has to do with immunity from coercion in civil society. Therefore it leaves untouched traditional Catholic doctrine on the moral duty of men and societies toward the true religion and toward the one Church of Christ.

Simply put, what Vatican II teaches is that the unchanging Catholic doctrine is still, has always been, and always will be – in effect. Vatican II is by no means inconsistent with past Church teachings. What is made crystal clear is that civil society may not. Coerce a religious belief, such as forced in atheistic communist China, and that. Individuals cannot be forced to believe the Truth, even the Catholic Faith of the One True God. The Catholic Church is obligated to teach

the Truth to the best of its ability,

but the bottom line is that God endowed each person with a free will, and that person must – by that same free will – accept the Truth. Faith is a gift which must be accepted by the person, and it cannot be shoved down their throat. A person can refuse the gift of Faith, and their soul will suffer the consequences of their choices for all eternity after their particular judgment after death.

Those dissenters who want to “change the Catholic Faith” are really people who reject the gift of Faith and want to take others down with them – misery mobile number lookup tools for clean lists loves company as they say. Here we

learn how totally hypocritical

are the dissenters. True Catholics have the right to the Truth as taught by the Church. Dissenters are trying to coerce the Church to accept their errors and opinions which thereby pollutes the Catholic Faith. Therefore, by oppressing the Truth, the dissenters deny a true Catholic’s right to a pure and proper Catholic Faith, which leads to eternal . Obstinate dissenters should convert to the Truth or, failing that, just leave the Church and go find a religion which suits their  fancy. Of course, the father of lies, the author of dissension, doesn’t want dissenters to leave because his plan is to destroy Jesus Christ’s Church. (interesting side thought: do want a female devil too? We never hear about that!) Just remember that your soul has eternal consequences to pay for its choices.
