According to a member of the Magisterium, t...TUAD,<br /><br />According to a member of the Magisterium, that would be "gratuitous" and unnecessary:<br /><br /><i>"Every possible “definition” of a particular point of doctrine comes under the Magisterium and is referred to it. Those, therefore, who imagine that the ideal aimed at in exercising the Magisterium is to produce as many gratuitous “definitions” as possible, assigning their elaboration to the theologians, are sadly mistaken. The essential thing is not to define, but to keep the deposit faithfully and to bear witness to its totality by respecting the balance of its different parts. The extreme course of “defining”, which the Fathers unanimously consider as a hazardous undertaking…which it is hoped may be avoided, is resorted to only when necessity decrees that this is the sole way to safeguard the integrity and purity of the apostolic testimony, whose content is the truth of the bond of Covenant sealed in Jesus Christ.”</i><br /><br />Congar, Yves. The Meaning of Tradition. San Francisco. Ignatius Press, 2004. P. 65<br /><br />They'd rather keep the deposit without defining it.<br /><br />Just more convenient that way.<br /><br />Peace.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00759432774174066023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-24104508492942847362010-10-27T17:40:06.489-04:002010-10-27T17:40:06.489-04:00"That, of itself, cuts the ground out from un...<i>"That, of itself, cuts the ground out from under the Catholic appeal to authoritative oral tradition."</i><br /><br />"All things to your remembrance"<br /><br />Therefore, I still don't understand why the Magisterium can't produce all the authoritative oral traditions that they say they have.Truth Unites... and Divideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08891402278361538353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-45431335243894422442010-10-27T14:37:32.830-04:002010-10-27T14:37:32.830-04:00This cuts painlessly, yet!
