I contend that the publication of the dubia, with their explanatory notes and argumentative premises tempts a parallel magisterium.  To some extent, they have already succeeded, luring many believers that these cardinals have the better of the argument.  Moreover, the questions try to guide the Holy Father down a primrose path; this is the concern that Fr. Vito of the Roman Rota raised when he likened them to the Pharisees' questions to Jesus regarding the adulterous woman.  The gloss on the dubia all presuppose conflicts with various other magisterial statements (particularly from Saint John Paul)--this is the suggestion of a heretical pope that I speak of--but such questions are argumentative and invite the Holy Father to engage in a theological debate when he has already provided a delicately worded response that attempts to address these concerns.
