That is in less than 6 weeks or 6 Sundays from now. For instance, in 2018, Pope Francis revised the paragraph on capital punishment, which was met with not a little controversy. Catholic Tradition stands with Scripture in forming the one single deposit of the Faith. The Liturgical Year repeats, again and again and again.

The USCCB had a challenge using the #ashtag as an entry. The next day Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. Some even label it as Catholic guilt. I just want to give you permission to put aside that guilt this Advent. The Advent liturgy is so rich, varied and beautiful. It is a feast of hope, for we, like Simeon, place our Hope in the Lord. I have written several posts on Ember Days (links at the end of this post) but never touched on the Ember Days following Pentecost, hence yet another post on Ember Days.

We are talking about not whether the Novus Ordo is a fine liturgy, but whether it is valid; not whether current ecumenical activities are bearing fruit, but whether the Churchs Magisterial understanding of the theological relationship between, say, Catholics and Protestants, is false; not whetherpluralist states workwell, but whether the Second Vatican Councils doctrinal defense of religious liberty contradicts previous Magisterial texts on the same subject.
