		The Roman Catholic Church generally only uses this term for papal encyclicals, but the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Anglican Communion retain the older usage.
		But if the Supreme Pontiffs in their acts, after due consideration, express an opinion on a hitherto controversial matter, it is clear to all that this matter, according to the mind and will of the same Pontiffs, cannot any longer be considered a question of free discussion among theologians.

	Papal Sin is Palpable Nonsense
		Papal Sin reads and argues at varying times as if its author can’t decide if he is a Bible-thumping fundamentalist, a secular agnostic or a bitter ex-Catholic.
		The difference is that Wills summarily rejects any papal authority to teach and, as such, it has led him down a road that moves from quiet dissent on social issues to outright rejection of fundamental Church teachings.
		While acknowledging at one point that Church teaching on artificial contraception is nearly as old as the Church itself and condemned by the Fathers of the Church, he states simply that we cannot “look for sanity” in their treatment of the issue.

		The Vatican has not yet announced a date for the appearance of the encyclical, and several previous reports-- such as one story predicting that the Pope's letter would be released on January 6-- have already proven inaccurate.
		Since that is a theme of the encyclical-- and since Pope Benedict reportedly asked for detailed information from Cor Unum as he drafted the document-- it might seem appropriate to have copies of the papal letter on hand during the seminar.
		By tradition a papal encyclical takes its title from the first words of the text; thus it appears that the Pope begins with a quote from the Epistle of St. John (4:8).

		The encyclical is therefore an explicit instruction to obedient [Roman] Catholics in Congress, state legislators and even to Supreme Court justices in their official capacity to oppose any laws or proposed law which would permit abortion.
		He is explicit in saying that the recusal of Justices Scalia, Kennedy and Thomas could not have been raised prior to March 1995 when Papal Encyclical "Evangelium Vitae" was issued; and the "General religious or moral views" of the justices "do not require their recusal/disqualification" in any case before this.

	What is Papal Infallibility
		The infallibility of the ordinary Magisterium was clearly and explicitly taught by Pius XII and by the Second Vatican Council.
		Here is what Pius XII wrote in his 1950 encyclical Humanae generis: "Nor must it be thought that what is expounded in encyclical letters does not itself command consent, on the pretext that in writing such letters the Popes do not exercise the supreme power of their teaching authority.
		By the ordinary tests used by the theologians to determine whether a doctrine is infallibly proclaimed, it may be argued that the specific condemnation of [contraception] is infallibly set out.

	Papal Infallibility in Providentissimus Deus
		Therefore, the third criterion for an infallible papal statement is met by these several definitive proclamations affirming the infallibility of Scripture in its entirety, and condemning any opinion that would limit infallibility to faith and morals.
		In other words, the papal statement, in order to be infallible, must be presented by the Pope as something that the Pope requires the whole Church to believe because it is a teaching of Divine Revelation (which all are required by God to believe).
		Subsequent papal statements would be effected by additional criteria, even ones made by subsequent Popes, until one Pope or another decides to dispense with the additional criteria, reverting to the sole use of the five essential criteria, or until one Pope or another changes or adds to the additional criteria.

		That is, the contemporary magisterium explicitly affirms as Catholic doctrine the truth that both ecclesial and papal infallibility extend to the secondary doctrinal truths necessary for guarding and expounding revelation.
		But this objection has presuppositions which undermine the whole doctrine of papal infallibility: it envisages as possible a situation wherein theologians or other members of the faithful may sit in judgment on the Church's supreme judge on earth, in regard to a given exercise of his supreme judgment--which is absurd.
		He says: Many Protestants have been fearful of papal arbitrariness, of an imposition of a temporally-conditioned belief upon all, of a limiting of the open-endedness of God's truth, and of an attribution to the pope (or to the Church) of an infallibility which belongs to God alone.

		I would like to rekindle this Eucharistic “amazement” by the present Encyclical Letter, in continuity with the Jubilee heritage which I have left to the Church in the Apostolic Letter Novo Millennio Ineunte and its Marian crowning, Rosarium Virginis Mariae.
		To contemplate the face of Christ, and to contemplate it with Mary, is the “programme” which I have set before the Church at the dawn of the third millennium, summoning her to put out into the deep on the sea of history with the enthusiasm of the new evangelization.
		It is my hope that the present Encyclical Letter will effectively help to banish the dark clouds of unacceptable doctrine and practice, so that the Eucharist will continue to shine forth in all its radiant mystery.

		His Holiness the Pope has chosen an appropriate moment to draw the attention of all Christians to the central place of the Eucharist in the life of the Christian faithful, and eloquently expressed afresh the Roman Catholic understanding of this Sacrament.
		From this study, we will hope to understand more fully the way in which the ecumenical commitment expressed in this encyclical, and by both our churches, may be carried forward to the point where a fuller eucharistic sharing may be initiated between Roman Catholics and Anglicans.

		Some leaders of the Lutheran federation hoped more progress would have been made on this issue after the LWF and the Roman Catholic Church signed, in 1999, a joint declaration on the doctrine of justification, one of the most divisive issues at the time of the Reformation.

		The encyclical's concentration on “individualistic” ethics based on rules and regulations, Sister Veronica argues, ignores the real issues today, which are “communal”, interpersonal relationships and dealing with more global problems.
		The papal encyclical has disappointed many by failing to take up issues of concern to young people.
