I know that the Church changed customs but that is different then changing Dogma. Customs help us discipline ourselves and they can be changed as our culture changes. This has nothing to do with our salvation. I think that you and Sister Jennifer might be confusing the changing of customs with changing Dogma. Also, there are a lot of liberal people in the Church and they can teach incorrect things in parishes and Catholic schools. This happens all of the time, sadly. People that were once conservative teachers of the faith can turn around and teach liberal nonsense. That's why we are always urged to compare teachings to Dogma so that we can see if anything has been changed. However, that does not mean that the Church is the one that is doing the changing and we shouldn't shun the whole orchard for the rotten apples on the ground.
Can you tell me exactly what you saw changed? That would help me immensly.
For example: what were you taught about confession and what is your daughter being taught now?
If Dogma has been changed then I'd like to know!!! :eek:
