THE WORD OF GOD

St. Jerome and the necessity of knowing the Bible.

September 30, 2021  6 Comments

St. Jerome and the necessity of knowing the Bible.


  • Good discussion. Just a minor critique. Around 7:20, Paul talks about the Church's lack of competency in regards to science. It's clear enough that Paul is speaking about the natural sciences here and not science, per se. That stated, the distinction is important enough to mention. The reason being is that not all science is material. For example, in the tradition of St. Thomas Aquinas, the Church recognizes theology as a science. And under the broad category of theology, there are sub-sciences such as moral theology and scripture. All three - theology, moral theology, and scripture - fall under the proper competency of the Church to comment on.

    St. John Paul II in his great encyclical on faith and reason, Fides et ratio, recognized a true unity among science, philosophy, and theology. One of the keys to this unity is the science of metaphysics. Another key is the overarching sense of wisdom (aka, sapiential horizon) that authentically connects all truth.

        Yes, the suffix '–ology' indicates it's a science in the broad sense of the term. And theology is indeed, as Aquinas states, the queen of all sciences – since its object is God rather than His creation. But you were correct, "science" in the show was used with its contemporary narrow meaning, i.e. the 'hard' natural sciences.

          Jerome’s own translation is unreliable in key places though.

                      I never had much trust for the government, the media, or the medical field. One of my science professors in college said, "Once you finish the science program, half of all the students will change their doctor." Since all that has happened with the vaccine restrictions by government, the medical field and media propaganda, I am even more convinced they are never to be trusted, ever. Being a progressive liberal is a serious sin in my opinion.

                      She went ice skating without a vaccine pass. FULL STORY

                      VINDICATED PRELATE RESIGNS

                      Neglects to mention the attacks were Islamic. FULL STORY


                      • Abp. Cordileone is "skirting" (pun intended) the issue. He is merely one of the cabal of the US Coven of Cowardly Bishops. While prayer is always good, as Ms. Tisor mentioned -- despite his repeated admonitions (both public (and by his own admission), private) Pelosi will never change. Cordileone simply hasn't the spine to excommunicate her nor to deny her Holy Communion.

                        The archbishop needs to take a stand, both to try and avoid further scandal to the Faithful and for the sake of Pelosi's soul.

                            So glad CM points out that the pope avoids the word Islam in these attacks. If you read any of the Quran there are passages that legitimize these actions.

                                POPE CONDEMNS JIHADIST ATTACK: Saw earlier video of the bodies of men, women and children wrapped in white cloth....
                                And for what? To prove their murdererous ways are superior to the True God of Peace? Islam, save your souls, not by the sword but by putting it down. There are
                                better ways to live---that's LOVE. 🕊
                                VINDICATED PRELATE RESIGNS: And is being replaced by a questionable character? Oh, doesn't clergy march forward unleashing the Gospel? Provoking the faithful? Adding to scandal? Scheesh! 🙄
                                CANADIAN MOTHER ARRESTED: This abusive display by Canadian law enforcement.... These men should be FIRED manhandling this pregnant woman
                                with her children crying and caught on video. That cop was a belligerent S.O.B.
                                with l assume, the husband. Pregnant women have miscarried after taking that 'jab'!!! Pray for that family!!! 🤰🙏
                                PRO-ABORTS VANDALIZE CHURCH: You 'pinch faced' cowards. Nonetheless, these messages of HATE for Life will be scrubbed along with prayers for your 'diabolically disoriented' souls. 💒
                                ARCHBISHOP OPPOSES ABORTION BILL: You rabid haters of life. Your attempt to codify a 'Law based on Lies' shames and angers the Almighty, 'the Giver of Life'
                                DON'T PUSH IT if you know what's good for you. God will judge this act ABOMINABLE and deserving of even more chastisement. 🙏🤰🙏
                                ROSARY FOR NANCY: She's in deep trouble with 'the Squad' especially AOC, the REAL Speaker of the House. The Marxist-Dems squabbling should make good theatre in the coming days. That's how Sean Hannity sees it. Prayers for him to return to the Faith would be welcome too.
                                For Pelosi? A St Paul on his way to Damascus moment???
