love the podcasts Jimmy!
I like that pod cast jimmy. Keep it up.
great stuff! When listening to Catholic Answers Live I often wish you had more time to go more in depth with a given topic. This is exactly like that!
Gotta disagree with your tentative approach to defining humor though. Great humor *is* beautiful, I grant but I think it’s far from a defining characteristic. Many people find it humorous that someone falls and hurts himself for instance. Or farts audibly. And plenty of other non-beautiful things. I reckon it’d tie a person in knots trying to somehow pass off the vulgar humor and the crass and injured-person humor as not funny because there’s no beauty therein and that all the people who laugh at such are just not *really* amused or to somehow try to fit beauty into those situations.
IMHO the best treatment of humor was done by Henri Bergson in a small essay “Laughter” which you can read a decent summary of here
sorry, that was actually a topic broached on a catholic answers live program, not this podcast … getting the vast and expanding Jimmy Akin Enterprises all confused 🙂
Really enjoyed this podcast. I knew absolutely nothing about sedevacantism before I heard it. Thank you for educating me on the subject.
Admit it Jimmy, you ARE a Catholic Robot from the future, sent by the ‘space-bishop’ (quote from a future podcast hehe) to Terminate heresy 😛
According to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the “Seal of Confession… [is] the obligation of strict confidentiality imposed by Divine Law on a Confessor in the Sacrament of Penance not to reveal to any person, under pain of Excommunication, the sins confessed.” (Glossary for the Norms of “Sacramentorum Sanctitattis Tutela”)
The same Congregation further notes in Substantive Norms that “[t]he more grave delicts against the sanctity of the Sacrament of Penance reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith are:…the direct and indirect violation of the sacramental seal, mentioned in can. 1388 § 1 of the Code of Canon Law [28],and in can. 1456 §1 of the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches [29];” (Art. 4 § 1, n. 5) and “With due regard for § 1, n. 5, also reserved to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is the more grave delict which consists in the recording, by whatever technical means, or in the malicious diffusion through communications media, of what is said in sacramental confession, whether true or false, by the confessor or the penitent. Anyone who commits such a delict is to punished according to the gravity of the crime, not excluding, if he be a cleric, dismissal or deposition [30].” (Art 4. § 2)
This should put all doubts to rest, and bring relief to worrying Catholics, that the Sacramental Seal can be changed to make room for violation whatsoever. 🙂
