I would be more impressed if the good Cardinal had presented the opposition's arguments and then dealt with them one by one as is done in good theological debate.

Instead the article is full of negative phrases like reaction by dissenters, level of infidelity, dissent of priests, manipulation of the anger, disrespect and contempt, derided my integrity, abused rhetoric, undermine the truth, etc.

Since probably a majority of Catholics ( ask your relatives and friends) do not accept the Church's teaching on birth control there may be some reason for more dialog.

“Since probably a majority of Catholics ( ask your relatives and friends) do not accept the Church’s teaching on birth control there may be some reason for more dialog.”

The very word “dialog” makes me sick.

The dissenters should be locked in libraries and not allowed out until they figure out why they are wrong.
