Yes and No

It's that time of the school year, and two friars were looking at the final, take-home exam for Canon Law.

"The answer is always no," said the first, "and we just have to figure out why."

"The answer is always yes," said the second, "and we just have to pray for the perspective to see it."

    Wow! Reminds me of the debate I was having last night concerning scepticism and nihilism vs. fideism and defeatism... can this be applied to Canon Law?

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
