Topic: Clement XIV


  
  Pope Clement XIV
At the death of Clement XIII the Church was in dire distress.
Clement XIII had hoped to silence their enemies by renewing the approbation of their Institute, "but the Holy See derived no consolation, the Society no help, Christianity no advantage from the Apostolic letters of Clement XIII, of blessed memory, letters which were wrung from him rather than freely given".
Louis XV died in 1774, and one is rather surprised at the eulogy which Clement XIV pronounced in a consistory on "the king's deep love for the Church, and his admirable zeal for the defence of the Catholic religion".

 Clement XIV - LoveToKnow 1911
But whatever the guilt or innocence of the Jesuits, and whether their suppression were ill-advised or not, there appears to be no ground for impeaching the motives of Clement, or of doubting that he had the approval of his conscience.
The suppression of the Jesuits bulks so large in the pontificate of Clement that he has scarcely been given due credit for his praiseworthy attempt to reduce the burdens of taxation and to reform the financial administration, nor for his liberal encouragement of art and learning, of which the museum Pio-Clementino is a lasting monument.
Clement's was a deeply religious and poetical nature, animated by a lofty and refined spirit.

Ganganelli was elected Pope Clement XIV on 19 May 1769, after a conclave that had been sitting since 15 February, 1769, heavily influenced by the political manoeuvres of the ambassadors of Catholic sovereigns who were opposed to the Jesuits.
Clement XIV's policies were calculated from the outset to smooth the breaches with the Catholic Crowns that had developed during the previous pontificate.
By yielding the Papal claims to Parma, Clement XIV obtained the restitution of Avignon and Benevento, and in general he succeeded in placing the relations of the spiritual and the temporal authorities on a friendlier footing.

 Pope Clement XIII
In 1737 he was made cardinal-deacon, and in 1743 Bishop of Padua, where he distinguished himself by his zeal for the formation and sanctification of his clergy, to promote which he held a synod in 1746, and published a very remarkable pastoral on the priestly state.
Clement did not see his way to refuse a request backed by the king's assurances that he had good grounds for his charges, but he begged that the accused might have a careful trial, and that the innocent might not be included in a punishment they had not deserved.
Foreseeing the difficulty of so large an influx of expelled religious into his states, Clement felt compelled to refuse them permission to land, and after various wanderings they lhad to settle down in Corsica, where they were joined by their brethren who had been similarly sent away from Spanish America.

 References - Pope Clement Xiv
Clement XIV, né Giovanni Vincenzo Antonio Ganganelli (SantArcangelo di Romagna, October 31, 1705 - Rome, September 22, 1774) was pope from 1769 to 1774.
In either case his action was abundantly justified, and to allege that though beneficial to the world it was detrimental to the church is merely to insist that the interests of the Papacy are not the interests of mankind.
The claims that Clement XIV was poisoned were dismissed by those connected to him, and as the Annual Register for 1774 stated, he was over 70 and had been in ill health for some time.

Clement was in complete agreement with the verdict, and on July 22nd, 1773, he issued the bull "Dominus ac Redemptor" in which he summed up in masterly fashion the causes and the motives which had guided the commission in taking its decision.
Clement was exceedingly abstemious and frugal; all his food was cooked by a Franciscan friar and could not possibly have been tampered with, so it is supposed that the poison—if poison there was—must have been introduced into some figs which the friar bought unsuspectingly one day from a street vendor.

Pope Clement VII (May 26, 1478 – September 25, 1534), born Giulio di Giuliano de' Medici, was a cardinal from 1513 to 1523 and was Pope from 1523 to 1534.
Clement VII, who had displayed no more resolution in his military than in his political conduct, was shortly afterwards (June 6) obliged to surrender himself together with the castle of Sant'Angelo, where he had taken refuge.
One momentous consequence of this dependence on Charles V was the breach with the Kingdom of England occasioned by Clement VII's refusal in 1533, justifiable in point of principle, to sanction Henry VIII of England's (1509–47) divorce from Catherine of Aragon.

Benedict XIV was sixty-seven years of age at the time of his elevation to the Holy See.
Benedict XIV was situated exactly as his predecessors had been, he had no means at his disposal which they had lacked; and yet he rose immediately to a position of the greatest import, owing entirely to personal prestige.
Benedict XIV would not have been so lovable had he not been human, and he had his failings as even the best of mortals will have; he could not resist the fascination of cards, and was addicted to profane language, or as one of his early biographers terms it, "unfortunate phraseology".

 PAPAL DECREES: (papal1.htm)
Pope Clement XIII, 248th in the line of Peter, was one of the first Roman Pontiffs to warn the world of the Masonic movement as he dealt with the problems created by the spread of Rationalism.
To best protect the faithful, Clement warned in his encyclical of September 17, 1759 Cum Primum ("Ever Since") that the bishops make sure they and their priests lived according to their ecclesiastical calling and not be compromised by duties better suited to the laity, thereby weaking their own spiritual resolve and causing scandal.
For Pope Clement XIV's Encyclical on Taxes and Benefices in admonishing the bishops to "Be shepherds of the flock of God entrusted to you, watching over it not for sordid gain, but freely" see his decree of September 21, 1769 "DECET QUAM MAXIME"

 Sacrament, Clement XIV, Laodicea
The Council of Laodicea in 370 stated that 'it behooves those who are illuminated to be anointed after Baptism with the supercelestial chrism, and to be made partakers of Christ.' St. Peter Damian, a Doctor of the Church, insists that the obligation to receive it is a serious one.
Benedict XIV taught that the obligation bound under pain of sin, if no grave inconvenience was involved in its reception.
Clement XIV approved a decree in 1774 which stated that 'this Sacrament cannot be refused or neglected without incurring the guilt of mortal sin, if there be an opportune occasion of receiving it.'
