Church doctrine and theology we in a state of flux as it was getting clarified by the Holy Fathers as centuries went by. am not surprised to discover, thanks to your chronicle that some of them were or would adhere to other ideas as it is normal in an human organization. But faith and obedience to Church are everything to the believer.
Please pray for Jacob that he finds the right path, for his parents that they find the strenght and wisdom to guide him and for all cancer patients that they deal with their religion with grace and dignity. Thank you.
