Francis: Wrong Can Suddenly Become True
Francis’ statement on death penalty contradicts what the Church taught
from her beginnings until John Paul II according to P.J. Smith on firstthings.com.
On October 11, Francis called death penalty “per se contrary to the Gospel”. He even claimed that the Church’s doctrine can be “clearly contrary” to a “new understanding of Christian truth”.
According to Smith this shows that Francis believes, “that authentic developments (haha) can correct, not corroborate, the body of thought from which they proceed.”
