And you demonstrate again how much you do not understand Catholicism. We are not sola scriptura fundamentalist Christians. It is not just some "ancient book" that speaks, it is the weight of Holy Tradition that speaks. Ours is a communal faith that spans all time, spans the divide of death, and that Tradition is the democracy of the dead that protects against the tyranny of the living.

Jesus transcended Judaism's Law of ritual purity, but intensified its Law of moral righteousness. I cannot think of one instance where Jesus compromised a moral teaching, only where he subjected those standards of ritual purity to the standards of true righteousness.
