| Summary: | This article seeks to explore the problem of 'dissent' within contemporary Catholicism. It examines the negative associations that arise with the use of the word 'dissent'. And considers, inter alia, the dilemma of 'infallible' and 'non-infallible' teachings in light of the Second Vatican Council documents particularly Gaudium et spes and Lumen Gentium and the issues raised by the more recent Ad tuendam Fidem. I explore the history of 'dissent' within the Church examining Jesus, Paul and Galileo and conclude that in order for parties to be reconciled within the Church she must actively embrace the needs and concerns of all through open, sincere dialogue. |
