On this episode of What Catholics Believe, Tom and Fr. Jenkins: • Revisit the topic of vaccines. Specifically, a video excerpt sent in from a viewer taken from the deposition of Stanley Plotkin, that states the fetus has to be alive in order to get a vaccine from it. • Discuss the SSPX’s reaction to the ‘Open Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church’ • What Fr. Scott of the FSSPX wrote against priests who have left the SSPX. • What the church teaches concerning “Theological Censures” (Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma - Ludwig Ott, see § 9. Theological Censures on page 10) • How the belief “You don’t have to have the Faith to be the Pope” is ‘sedenegantism’ and a victory for modernism. • Francis’ recent quote about ‘freedom of the press’.
