“But Gaillardetz goes beyond the liberal pale in some startling ways: He wonders whether the concept of divine revelation might be extended to the Qur’an or the Hindu Upanishads, and he says that, because most Catholics do not regard the unity of Christ’s nature as a significant issue, it is not central to the Catholic faith: ‘It is not that Constantinople III was wrong; it is just that its Christological formulation is no longer central to the faith consciousness of Catholics today’.

Gaillardetz’s failure to make basic distinctions and his lack of historical research result in one theological problem after another, undermining not only his own arguments but the faith of the Church and the magisterium’s authority to proclaim it.” From a review of Richard Gaillardetz’s book, “By What Authority…”.

Richard Gaillardetz was the featured presenter at a five day continuing education seminar in January at St. Bernard’s School of Theology. These continuing ed programs are designed for priests and deacons, among others. Although this program has already taken place it does help to explain why Catholic doctrine in our diocese is under continual assault. It is a sorry state of affairs when an institution that is supposed to be educating our priests, deacons and lay ministers sponsors a presenter like Richard Gaillardetz

Also, Gaillardetz is one of 26 members of Barack Obama’s Catholic National Advisory Council. That’s the pro-partial birth abortion Obama who embraces the Democratic Party’s sacrament of baby killing.
