about this site
Catholic Sensibility is a personal blog by a Catholic layperson with comments and occasional other writings by Catholics and non-Catholics. We make no particular claims to have the completeness of a Roman Catholic expression of Christianity. It contains opinion, interpretation, and personal musings. That’s it. Nothing official or authoritatively connected to the Magisterium.

Lies or Ignorance?
It’s sort of a head-scratcher on one of the more common reasons given for the confluence of the Hermeneutic of Subtraction and Communion from the Cup. Br Dan sorts it all out for you here.
As one dotCommonweal commentator asked earlier today, which is worse to consider:
I can understand bishops getting in way over their heads on administration–wanting to defend a brother priest even to the point of enabling criminal behavior. Lay people do that, too. But bishops have a sacramental and apostolic responsibility to the believers entrusted to them. These decisions on liturgy betray a crucial lack of prudence. But they also expose a few of our shepherds as woefully out of their element on matters of theology. Or in simply telling the truth.
