Doesn't mean it's true. Sacred Tradition does not encompass the understanding of particular historical circumstances nor historical analysis, and the Holy Spirit does not confer a special competence to bishops to do either task.
CNA Archbishop Chaput: When we forget faith, we forget our humanity In an address at the Faith and Reason Institute at Gonzaga University, the Archbishop of Philadelphia says loss of faith has a detrimental impact on three areas: sex, technology, and basic premises.
Did Augustine do the same in City of God? Was he wise enough to be able to do so well? Would it be better for bishops to refrain from doing so, unless they demonstrated extraordinary wisdom?
