It gives the conservatives and intellectually dishonest traditionalists (I used to be one) the wiggle room to interpret in the light of tradition and say "nothing's changed" "he meant to say this...". It also allows the progressives and liberals to run with it and push the limits and goal posts further and further as time goes by. Everyone claims victory, but the liberals slowly win little by little in these circumstances.<br /><br />All the while the Poop Francis can sit back, push his agenda and not be heretical (from a Catholic perspective) because of the plausible deniability the ambiguity gives him.<br /><br />Glory to God I'm out of that mess and found Orthodoxy...S.F.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16518080103268738033noreply@blogger.com
