I wrote a piece for The Catholic Thing on Cardinal McElroy and the trap of rejecting the primacy of conscience just because he says he's for it. Spoiler, he is not.
Read it all here (mine is the second piece -- feel free to contact the editor and ask for it to be posted as a separate link so that you can more easily share it!): McElroy's Conscience Trap
Leila, I am not Catholic but I really enjoyed reading both of those articles. It gave me good food for thought as I raise my kids and want to know how to teach them to respect the conscience God gave them and to guide them on a path leading to Him and to joy. Teach and study and ponder the commandments! So simple and so true. Thank you for your valiant work.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad. To God the glory! Also know that I have a whole section in my book, The Summa Domestica, on the moral education of children!
