THE DIVERSITY OF FALSE RELIGIONS IS THE PRODUCT OF ORIGINAL SIN
This is the constant teaching of the Catholic Church, which Father Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange summarizes admirably:
“Respect for all religions, however false or perverse they may be, is only the proud denial of respect due to the Truth. To sincerely love the true and the good, we must have no sympathy with error and evil. To truly love the sinner and further his salvation, we must detest the evil in him".
Father Réginald Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P. (1877-1964).
Instead, today this very serious error is said:
“The pluralism and the diversity of religions, colour, sex, race and language are willed by God in His wisdom, through which He created human beings.” (Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together, February 4, 2019).
The diversity of false religions invented by man cannot be the expression of the will of God, since God abhors error. And God Himself is the Truth. Therefore, there is only one true Religion taught by the only Church - the Catholic church - founded by Christ, true God who became Man to save us.
If Adam had not sinned, error would not have spread, nor would so many false religions invented by man, product of original sin, have been created (throughout history).
To date, this erroneous statement which claims that false religions are the "expression of a divine wisdom (sic)" has not been officially corrected.
