Keep Yourselves From Idols

Do not be distracted. Clerical celibacy is a disciplinary issue, and the Amazon Synod was never going to change it, anyway. But the worship of fertility symbols is heresy, blasphemy, idolatry and sacrilege. And it is clearly already going on.

Outside the uniquely self-existent and the infinitely perfect God of Abrahamic monotheism, this or that generic, dependent, finite and imperfect deity may or may not exist in actual fact. Who knows? But each of them speaks of and to the human experience of something that is absolutely real, namely Saint Paul's elemental spirits, which are Saint John's fallen angels.

Even in the House of Israel, there were prophets of Baal as well as prophets of God. And there still are.
