2021 was the fifth anniversary of Amoris L titia, and according to pope Francis, it should have been a year of reflection on the exhortation, an opportunity to focus more closely on the content of the document. In response to this appeal, Dispelling the Fog presents five essays analysing the issue of the so-called divorced-remarried and their access to the Eucharist in connection with the exhortation. Vojtěch Simek focuses on the crucial Chapter 8 of Amoris L titia and its possible interpretations. Peter Dvořák examines and refutes the claim that the teaching of the exhortation is Thomistic. Lukás Novák argues that even after Amoris L titia, there is no sustainable argument to vindicate the legitimacy of administering the Eucharist to the remarried who refuse to commit themselves to abstinence. Stanislav Přibyl interprets the ever increasing demand for unrestricted access to the Eucharist as a manifestation of a general tendency in the post-conciliar Church to abandon the Sacrament of Penance. Finally, Marie Tejklová criticizes the so-called Filial Correction for not adequately addressing the symptoms of modernism in Amoris L titia: given that modernism is based on skepticism, it cannot be countered by a mere appeal to the teaching of the Church but calls for a philosophical refutation. The book further includes a foreword by bishop Athanasius Schneider, an afterword by Professor Stanislav Sousedík and rich indices.
