Cf. the recent article by John Lamont on Alphonsus de Rodrigues and the abusive Jesuit conception of obedience and how it ended up affecting the secular clergy via texts like Tanquerey inthe seminaries. It was one of the better things posted on Rorate Caeli.Albrecht von Brandenburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12996637489269911349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-21416278566737763602018-11-09T22:00:21.213+00:002018-11-09T22:00:21.213+00:00Cardinal Bacci's "Meditations" has a...Cardinal Bacci's "Meditations" has a Facebook page to which you can subscribe, and receive a meditation every day on your home page.Dr. T.T.Coalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160565334087700844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-32749124094590805622018-11-09T21:27:41.878+00:002018-11-09T21:27:41.878+00:00Fr.

It was a very, very rambling speech, but the clear implication was that we didn't need to take our Lord's words on divorce and remarriage literally, or, indeed, at all, since the gospel writers just made everything up.

Alas, today most books with titles "meditations for each day" fall under the genres 'New Age' or 'Westernized Buddhism' (aka Buddhism for people who can't be bothered to meditate).
