Don’t forget the $$ While I am not a mind reader, it is obvious to a casual observer what is going on here: the fence sitters are attempting to appear faithful to the teachings of the Church without suffering any negative consequences for doing so. I mean who can fault them for upholding the faith and the Church while at the same time remaining completely obedient to those who seek to destroy the faith and the Church? It’s a win—win!
Rather than attempt to use their well-formed Catholic conscience and basic reasoning skills to think outside the box and find solutions to this catch-22 trap the devil set, they simply publicly proclaim, with all the virtuous signaling they can muster, clear and obvious contradictions and demand that no one call them out on it.
