Canon Law
Question from JJMcIntyre on 6/5/2008:
Are all of the postulates in the encyclical "Lamentabile Sane" (Pius X, 7/3/1907)still proscribed and would adherence to any of them constitute a bar to becoming a Catholic?
Answer by Rev. Mark J. Gantley, JCL on 6/28/2008:
Most of the errors condemned in that encyclical are matters of doctrine, not merely disciplinary, and thus have not changed. So if a person is adhering to heretical beliefs, then the heresy prevents them from becoming Catholic.
Perhaps you have a more specific question. Of course, more specific questions might be more appropriately submitted to the doctrinal or apologetics forums.
