A partial retraction

Hyperbole is an essence of my writing which, upon reflection, I almost always back away from in the interest of clarity.  I don't want people's emotions getting in the way of a message I'm trying to deliver.  In the previous post, I can't read a person's soul and certainly don't mean to imply that anyone is in jeopardy of hell due to criticism of this Pope or the office of the Papacy.  We are required to give some sort of respectful reception to what comes out of the Magisterium.  But whether this or that document rises to the level of "assent of will" or "assent of faith" or "polite applause" or whatever is beyond my ken.
