heh, yeah, I understand that. What I mean is that, as should be the case in any time period, the past 50 years or so have seen the beginning in a shift of thought in Catholic theology towards exactly what you're saying, for the most part

Much like Thomas Aquinas was considered a heretic at first because of his "new" interpretations of Church doctrine, there is of course resistance to change and, thus, change takes place over long periods of time (see Mel Gibson's brand of "catholicism" for a great example of this resistance), but it seems to be coming clear that change is occurring in that direction.
Anyways, don't wanna threadjack so may as well respond in PMs
