What did the Catholic Church keep changing to?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church and its dogma, by its very definition, can NOT change and does NOT change. Therefore beliefs do NOT change. The very thing that is stable about the Catholic Church is that It holds fast to the dogmas that have been given it by Our Blessed Lord. A Pope or an Ecumenical Council can further expound or explain a dogma. They can define something that has never been explicitly defined before, but they can not come up with something new or change anything that is part of the deposit of faith. The only place you can find changes in belief is outside of the Catholic Church. As it is only in the Catholic Church that the Holy Spirit guides and keeps the Church from error. Once you have left the guarantee that Jesus has given (the Catholic Church) then error comes in at once, along with changing belief.from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 1994The dogmas of the faith88 The Church's Magisterium exercises the authority it holds from Christ to the fullest extent when it defines dogmas, that is, when it proposes, in a form obliging the Christian people to an irrevocable adherence of faith, truths contained in divine Revelation or also when it proposes, in a definitive way, truths having a necessary connection with these.89 There is an organic connection between our spiritual life and the dogmas. Dogmas are lights along the path of faith; they illuminate it and make it secure. Conversely, if our life is upright, our intellect and heart will be open to welcome the light shed by the dogmas of faith. (Cf. Jn 8:31-32)90 The mutual connections between dogmas, and their coherence, can be found in the whole of the Revelation of the mystery of Christ. (Cf. Vatican Council I: Denzinger-Schonmetzer, Enchiridion Symbolorum, definitionum et declarationum de rebus fidei et morum (1965) 3016: nexus mysteriorum; Lumen Gentium 25.) "In Catholic doctrine there exists an order or 'hierarchy' of truths, since they vary in their relation to the foundation of the Christian faith." (Unitatis redintegratio11).
