Marquette U. v. FrancisChurch

Marquette University doesn't seem to "get" the direction of the Church under Pp. Francis.

See, in his latest letter, Pp. Francis implies that 'a firm purpose of amendment' is not a pre-requisite for "mercy" and forgiveness.  In fact, there may not even be a need to say "I'm sorry."

Marquette--in the case of McAdams?  Not so much.

The essence of God does not depend upon the caprice of man. There is a distinction between God's mercy and our disposition to receive its graces. God's mercy is not a cookie held out to us for good behavior. The friends of Thomas get that.
