I thank you too.

The exclamation " should be something the Catholic Church should permit in its hallowed halls " can find complicated responces under the following simple facts :

1) Coup of the Council of Vatican II (1962)

2) The following abnormal successions - and questionable deaths - of the Popes till the establishment of today's Pope Francis

3) In mater to the above, there is a book -to my knowledge, "From Enemy to Brother" by John Connelly.

Respectfully... Keep healthy and strong,

Christianity, with its corpus of holy texts from very different authors and written during very different times, is actually quite capable of dealing with ambiguity. What is heresy or blasphemy and what is not can be battled out over time in a Baudrillardian arena. The problem here is involvement of the state, and the fact that jail is not a simulacrum.
