Sic Semper Tyrannis
We could all think of Orders, Congregations and Institutes where members have written against magisterial teaching. Occasionally there has been some intervention from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and in rare cases an individual has been suspended from teaching in the name of the Church. We all remember the furore over the polite and carefully worded report on the Leadership Conference of Women Religious.

I can think of a place to put that oath. 
The institutional church as one part of the Body of Christ is...
and as we know proceeding on towards Calvary and then Resurrection ...
but first comes a scourging and debasement of Her earthly power and beauty.
This is only the beginning kiddies. Hang on to your rosaries !More
