A Church Which Abandons The Truth Abandons

However, If The Religions In Essence Merely Repeat Statements From The United Nations Human Rights Declaration, Such A Declaration Becomes Superfluous; An Ethic Is More Than Rights.

In My View, The Catholic Church As A Community Of Faith Will Be Preserved, But Only If It Abandons The Roman System Of Rule. We Managed To Get By Without This Absolutist System For 1,000 Years.

But I Have To Add - And This Answers Your Other Question - This Catholicity In Time And In Space Is Only Meaningful For Me If There Is, At The Same Time, A Concentration On The Gospel.
